Home » Planned Shutdown Works
Pipework replacement, valve changes, tie ins and upgrades completed inside your shutdown window. Planned in advance, prefabricated where possible and handed back on time.
A shutdown window is expensive time. Every hour the plant is down has to be used well, and every job on the shutdown list has to be finished and tested before production restarts. Plumbing work that runs over can hold up the entire restart.
SWR Plumbing plans and completes plumbing scopes for planned shutdowns at industrial plants in Melbourne. We coordinate with your shutdown planner and other contractors, prepare in advance and work to the schedule so your plant returns to full operation on time.
Good shutdowns are won before the plant stops. Our process starts weeks ahead:
