Modular Skid Design Services

We optimise our skid design process around project specifications to support efficient fabrication and accelerated site execution. Our team validates the operational performance of the design through process simulations before final placement and foundation attachment.

Plant operations can proceed without bottlenecks, as skid systems are fabricated offsite in a secure and controlled environment.

How we execute the designs:

• We prepare an estimation of utilities required to integrate the skid into the plant. The utilities are aligned with applicable standards and codes before commencing design work.
• A full modular skid is modelled in 3D based on the initial equipment arrangement layout, coordinating all disciplines within the model.
• Pipe stress analysis and structural steel frame analysis and design are performed to determine the operating capacity of the components within the skid. A report detailing dimensions and maximum allowable weight limits is used for safe transportation.
• Following the review and approval of the 3D skid model, the fabrication package—containing GA drawings, structural fabrication drawings, piping isometrics, electrical and instrumentation drawings, and installation interface documents—is issued for release.

We design skid systems that can handle dynamic loads and transportation stress.

The structural stability of the steel frame remains intact while providing adequate support for internal components—piping, pumps, valves, heat exchangers, and more—to prevent misalignment, vibration, and spills.

Challenges we help eliminate during the skid design process:

• Reduce installation-related risks by resolving conflicts—maintenance access, process requirements, and transport clearance—through engineering judgment.
• Ensure clash-free and constructable skid models ready for fabrication drawings development.
• Design the skid structure to withstand loads while maintaining the integrity of pipe supports and equipment, ensuring it arrives undamaged, fully prepared for installation.
• Define pipe tie-in connections clearly enough to make field connections without ambiguity.
• Ensure the skid design and vendor equipment submissions are completed in the same timeline to avoid delay in equipment delivery.

A well-engineered modular skid changes the risk profile of your project at the design conception stage itself.

Its benefits extend beyond just schedule compression; it improves assembly quality, reduces fabrication costs, and resolves installation issues, making it ideal for space-constrained plants.
