Skid Piping

What Skid Piping does

Skid Piping BV is a Dutch private limited company founded in 2012 and headquartered in Ten Boer, Netherlands, that specialises in the design, prefabrication, and installation of custom piping systems and modules for the shipbuilding and industrial sectors. The company was established as a continuation of BHP Leiding- en Constructiewerken BV following the latter's bankruptcy, with founders Erwin Bruin and Sietse Pot — both former BHP employees — retaining experienced staff. Skid Piping operates from a production hall at Nijverheidsweg 6 co-located with a machine factory, deploying a fleet of five bending machines (four standard plus one CNC bending machine) capable of cold-bending and rolling steel, stainless steel, aluminium, cunifer, titanium, duplex, composite, and GRE pipes from 8-12mm to 168.3mm diameter. The machine park is described as unique in Northern Netherlands, supporting engineering services in 3D Cadmatic eBrouwser and 2D/3D AutoCAD, and on-site field installation via mobile bending banks.

Revenue model

1. Custom Pipe Bending and Prefab Piping Fabrication: Skid Piping generates revenue by fabricating custom-prefabricated (prefab) piping and module construction for shipbuilding and industrial clients. Work includes cold bending of pipes, production of elbows, spirals, pipelines, and complete piping modules. Pricing is quote-based and project-specific, with the company thinking in assembly hours to keep costs low and reduce implementation time.
2. Hydraulics and Pneumatics Systems: Prefabrication and installation of complete hydraulic and pneumatic systems for industry, offshore, and shipping. Revenue is earned through project-based fabrication and installation contracts, including on-site installation using mobile bending equipment.
3. Maintenance and Repair Services: Ongoing maintenance, emergency repairs, and overhaul services for maritime and industrial piping systems. Time-loss reduction is a key selling point, with the ability to perform emergency repairs followed by definitive repairs.
4. Engineering and Documentation Services: Engineering services including concept design, basic engineering, detail engineering, as-built measurements, and certification documentation (Bureau Veritas, DNV, Lloyds Register). These services are bundled with fabrication projects or delivered independently.
