Sintakote® Pipeline System
Construct and Install Steel Pipeline Systems
At Steel Mains, we understand that every project is different. That's why we've developed three Sintakote training streams, designed to support your installation learning for steel pipeline systems.
Program overview
Training and competency development for steel pipeline installation
Research shows that Steel Mains Sintakote Steel Pipeline Systems can achieve operational lifetimes of over 150 years when installed correctly. Steel Mains and its predecessors have long supported quality installation through a dedicated program offering steel pipe installation training and accreditation for qualified personnel, now widely required by Australian water authorities.
This program helps field and operational staff gain the skills needed to ensure water distribution assets are installed safely and efficiently.
Objective To provide pipeline installation personnel with a sound basis of efficient and competent methods of installation and reinstatement of Sintakote Steel Pipelines
Who should attend
Personnel involved in the construction and pipeline industry. The program is designed for general pipe layers, leading hands and supervisors, as well as for engineering personnel in order to gain general pipeline construction & installation knowledge.
Our approach
Steel Mains combines theoretical learning, practical instruction and workplace competency assessment to support the correct installation of Sintakote steel pipeline systems.
Our training streams allow participants to develop their knowledge and installation skills, with separate practical assessment available where formal verification of competency is required.
Key outcomes
What participants will learn
- 1 Plan and prepare for construction & installation
- 2 Construct and install Sintakote distribution conveyance assets, pipes and associated fittings
- 3 Confirm work quality
- 4 Finalise work
