About · Our Facilities

A 5,000 m² Baku base — everything in one workshop.

Workshop with overhead cranes, in-house machine shop, ISO/IEC 17025 calibration laboratory, dedicated valve test bench, surface preparation and a paint shop — all on one site.

Overview

Everything we need under one roof.

XDS operates from a single 5,000 m² fabrication base in Baku, Azerbaijan — built for self-performed delivery. The site combines a fabrication workshop with overhead cranes, a precision machining shop, an ISO/IEC 17025-accredited testing & calibration laboratory, a hydraulic & PSV test bench, a process skid yard and a warehouse — all under one QHSE management system.

Concentrating the operation on one site means projects flow through a single quality system. Pre-fabricated spools, machined components, calibrated instruments and freshly painted assemblies are tracked from raw material through final dispatch under one inspection-and-test plan.

Mobile crews and a 20-foot mobile test container extend our reach to client sites onshore and offshore across the Caspian region — without losing the central record-keeping and quality control of the Baku base.

Capabilities

Six dedicated areas in one base.

Each area is operated by a specialist team and integrated under one quality and HSE system.

01

Fabrication Workshop

Indoor bays with overhead cranes — for process piping, structural steel, pressure vessels and modular skids.

  • Overhead cranes for heavy assemblies
  • Welding bays — SMAW, GTAW, GMAW, FCAW
  • Cutting — plasma, oxy-fuel and saws
  • Pre-fabricated spools to isometric drawings
02

Machine Shop

In-house precision machining — turning, milling, drilling and grinding to client drawings.

  • Industrial & CNC lathes
  • Vertical / horizontal milling machines
  • Threading and grinding capability
  • Calibrated dimensional inspection
03

PSV / PRV Test Bench

Dedicated valve test bench — set-pressure calibration, blow-down verification and seat-tightness testing per API 527.

  • High-pressure test pumps & manifolds
  • Reference manometers traceable to NMI
  • Set-pressure calibration
  • Documented certification per valve
04

Calibration Laboratory

ISO/IEC 17025-accredited lab — pressure, temperature, mechanical, electrical and gas instrument calibration.

  • Dead-weight testers & reference manometers
  • Dry-block & temperature baths
  • Multifunction process calibrators
  • Certified gas mixtures
05

Surface Preparation & Paint Shop

Sandblasting, coating and painting line for fabricated assemblies — protective coatings to NORSOK M-501 where specified.

  • Sandblasting to SA 2.5 / SA 3
  • Climate-controlled spray booth
  • DFT & adhesion testing
  • Hot-dip galvanising coordination
06

Outdoor Yard & Mobile Capability

Laydown yard for fabricated assemblies plus a 20-foot mobile test container that mobilises to client sites.

  • Outdoor laydown for fabricated assemblies
  • Mobile 20-ft test container
  • On-site / offshore mobilisation
  • Onshore yard storage and inventory
