What started as an internal support system is now developing into full fledged business unit enhancing the country’s capabilities in the heavy engineering segment, says Ravi Sarin, Chief Executive Officer, Essar Heavy Engineering Services. By Niranjan Mudholkar

EHES is present in a very niche segment and it has also been growing. Obviously, this is not possible without highly skilled workers. Sarin explains that Hazira is a rich industrial belt in Surat with some of the most experienced and qualified workers in the fabrication industry.

Most challenging projects undertaken by EHES so far
Quench tower for EOL - SS316L - 360MT - 7M DIA x 80M LONG
2500TPH Bucket wheel reclaimer for Essar Paradeep
2 ¼ CR. 1 MO reactor of 130mm thickness without any repair
Secondary reformers for Kribhco involving shop and site works including refractory work under supervision & inspection of KBR, PDIL, HSB and KRIBHCO
"The above projects have been challenging mainly in terms of metallurgy, size, and technology used in manufacturing above equipment. There are only limited manufacturers who are qualified for such hi-tech jobs," says Sarin.

"Essar has established this fabrication facility considering this aspect. Moreover, we have a policy for conducting regular training programs for soft skills as well as technical skills on a regular basis. We recruit experienced and qualified engineers as per the requirement of various functions of the organisation. Apart from this, we encourage employees and trainees recruited for on-the-job training."
