Petrochemical Facilities Demand Disciplined Execution
Petrochemical and chemical facilities operate under continuous exposure to corrosive materials, elevated temperatures, and tightly regulated safety environments. Rimcor supports these facilities with execution strategies designed for live units, shutdowns, and controlled outages, where constructability and safety must be addressed together.
Operating Conditions That Drive Risk and Complexity
Petrochemical and chemical processing environments present unique challenges that demand specialized expertise and proven execution capabilities.
Continuous Corrosive Exposure
Constant contact with aggressive chemicals and corrosive byproducts that degrade conventional materials rapidly.
Elevated Temperatures & Thermal Cycling
Extreme heat conditions combined with repeated thermal expansion and contraction cycles.
Congested Units with Limited Access
Complex piping configurations and tight working spaces that restrict equipment movement and crew access.
Strict Safety & Compliance Requirements
Rigorous environmental, safety, and regulatory standards that govern every aspect of operations.
Execution Support Aligned With Plant Operations
Rimcor integrates engineering, specialty construction, and field execution to support petrochemical and chemical operations. Work is planned around site-specific constraints to reduce operational disruption and execution risk.
Engineering Integration
In-house engineering teams develop custom solutions tailored to your facility's specific chemical processes, operating conditions, and access constraints.
