FINAL LNG Welder
www.careersinoilandgas.com
WELDER #BPressureWelder #WelderApprentice #BrazingMachineOperator #ElectricArcWelder Ready to test your metal? How about your mettle? As a Welder, you take pride in your craft, skillfully fusing metal parts together - a vital function when it comes to oil and gas-related construction, operations or maintenance projects. If you’re skilled with your hands, mathematically minded, and detail-oriented, perhaps you’re meant to melt some metal and pursue a career in welding.
As a Welder, every day could look a little different. One day, you may be fabricating pipe in a shop, and the next day, you may be out in the field providing support while pipefitters attach pipes to a wellhead or storage tank. You work with tools such as blow torches, handwelding and flame-cutting equipment – even some advanced digital tools may be used for high-precision work. A typical day usually begins with a safety meeting. You then set up your welding equipment and read up on the drawings and specifications you’ll need for the day’s welding job. You’ll choose the type of weld and apply your own welding technique. There are numerous welding methods that can be used.
The Red Seal is the interprovincial standard of excellence and is available to tradespersons upon successful completion of the Red Seal examination. Certified welders can build on their qualifications and capabilities for more advanced welding.

What would I do? Sparks fly when two pieces of metal become one. Your job is to make that happen by applying any combination of welding techniques. Based on blueprint information, you may develop templates and models for welding projects. Once you’ve completed a weld, you’ll need to examine the work for any defects and to ensure it conforms to specifications. Safety is a significant part of your job as working with heat and open flames can present hazards. Additionally, much depends on the quality of your welding. A poor weld can present a significant safety and/or environmental issue. Selecting proper joints and ensuring work materials are free of grease and dirt are just a few preventative measures. To ensure the quality of a weld, you check it via x-ray, pressure-testing and other methods. Other tasks you may be required to do as a Welder include: ``
Chipping or grinding off excess weld using hand scrapers or other equipment
``
Cleaning and degreasing parts using wire brushes, portable grinders or chemical baths
``
Welding components in flat, vertical or overhead positions
