Welding Safety in Shipyards: Demap’s Approach to Protecting People and Assets

Welding operations in shipyards involve high heat, flammable materials, and confined spaces—making safety protocols critical. Demap Teknik Makina places occupational health and safety (OHS) at the core of every project.

Our welders are certified not only for technical skill, but for their adherence to safety standards. Every project begins with a Job Safety Analysis (JSA) and site-specific risk assessments.

We utilize fire blankets, ventilation systems, gas detectors, and personal protective equipment (PPE) to ensure both crew and environment remain protected throughout operations.

In addition to worker safety, we take preventive measures to safeguard the vessel itself—avoiding thermal damage to adjacent structures, preventing slag-related blockages, and ensuring post-weld heat treatment if required.

Demap Teknik Makina believes that no job is successful unless it’s also safe. Our team is trained, our protocols are clear, and our mission is simple: deliver excellence without compromise.
