About
GC Van Dam LLC is an ASME, API, and ISO-certified fabricator with facilities in Galveston and Port Arthur, Texas, providing fabrication of Tanks, pressure vessels, heat exchangers, process skids, Modules and other process equipment, with marine access for barge delivery along the Gulf Coast.
Our company has been involved in most of the recent energy and chemical projects on the U.S. Gulf Coast, including Port Arthur LNG, Rio Grande LNG, Louisiana LNG, Plaquemines LNG, Corpus Christi LNG, and Sabine Pass LNG. Additionally, we recently exported 19 pressure vessels to Mexico for three combined-cycle power plants. We can also serve as a technical procurement agent for energy-related equipment sourced in the U.S., coordinating delivery alongside our fabricated products.
GC Van Dam LLC stands out for its unique combination of facilities, expertise, and capabilities that ensure project success. With direct water access and crane capacity, we efficiently handle the transport of oversized and heavy equipment via barge. Our large yards allow for storage and assembly of process modules, integrating both in-house and third-party components for streamlined delivery. Supported by a highly skilled team experienced in complex and exotic-material projects, we offer vertically integrated services covering engineering, fabrication, surface preparation, and painting, minimizing reliance on subcontractors. Our open workshop and yard also accommodate specialized contractors for tasks like instrumentation, fireproofing, and insulation. Committed to safety and quality, we hold ASME U Div. 1 & R, ISO, and marine certifications, while maintaining strict safety protocols.
