Essentially an amalgamation of two entities, MCS Pipeline Services (Pty) Ltd effectively came into operation in 1974 and is today a total solutions company serving the African and Middle East Oil and Gas markets. As a leader in its field, MCS Pipeline Services is capable of taking projects from the engineering design phase through to execution – and with an enviable inventory of equipment, is perfectly positioned to be of service, regardless of the requirement or location.
We have long-standing relationships with our clients who put their faith in our abilities and experience and know they can entrust their requirements to us at any time. To many of them, MCS Pipeline Services is more a partner than a supplier. With our objective of saving them money through a comprehensive range of turnkey services which help to reduce downtime, the role we play is often integral to their functioning. We’re essentially a one-stop-shop with design capabilities, providing companies with equipment, infrastructure, experience, technical know-how, back up and logistical support. The company is unrivalled on the African continent in many respects, supplying a full turnkey service through its association with a number of reputable and leading international organisations. Below are extracts of comments made by some of our clients:
“The company performed work for me whilst I was maintenance manager for Sasol Gas in the Kwazulu region. They installed two High Density Polyethylene Pipelines and related above ground gas metering facilities in the Richards Bay and Verulam area of operations. These being a 5.2 kilometer pipeline and a 1.2 kilometer pipeline both 6” in diameter as well as two customer metering stations. Both pipelines were above ground facilities and were completed ahead of schedule and within budget. We were also able to pre-commission the works ahead of schedule which greatly assisted our customers. They also performed work for the natural gas project which brought gas in from Mozambique to Secunda in that they completed a 1 kilometer section of the pipeline in the Secunda plant where all the weld procedures and coating methods were tested and approved prior to construction. I have no reservations in recommending the company where gas pipeline or above ground facility-related work is required, as in my experience, their work has always been at a high standard.” Brian Balouza, Sasol.
“MCS integrate seamlessly as part of the project team with a commitment to get the job done - safely.” Louis Odendaal, MegChem.
“I would like to appreciate the great service you have given me, I feel like my problem is solved already. I sent one e-mail within 5 min everyone is trying to assist me. I deal with suppliers on a daily basis but never experienced this super customer service. I am really impressed. Keep it up! Thanks and Regards.” Brian Buthelezi, Transnet.
“VGI is in the gas industry market since 1978 and we have worked together with international companies in the past. But I can say at this stage, that MCS outperform many of the other construction companies including the international companies.” Pieter Venter, VGI
“Oh Yes, oh yes, we depend very heavily on people like MCS. We know they keep ahead of technology. We know they always have the newest machines in. We also know that they tap knowledge from overseas, as and when required, and it is just very good for us to depend on a company like MCS.” Hannes v/d Merwe, Sasol Gas
