Tekla Detailing Outsourcing

An overflow Tekla team for fabricators and detailing firms: models built to your numbering, templates and phasing, with drawings, reports and a clean handover you can take straight back into your workflow.

Your Model, Your Standards, More Capacity

Most detailing backlogs are not about skill but about hours. PetroHill works as an overflow partner for fabricators and detailing firms that run Tekla Structures: we take a defined part of the model, or a defined set of drawings, and return it built to your conventions so it merges cleanly with the rest of the job.

That means working to your numbering series, drawing templates, report formats, phase and lot structure and the version of Tekla you run. Before we start we agree how the model will be exchanged, whether as a native model, a shared model, or IFC reference files, and who owns which parts of it, so two teams never edit the same members.

Our senior team has used Tekla Structures for detailed structural work on refinery and oil and gas projects, alongside AutoCAD, MicroStation and Navisworks, and earlier plant-design environments such as PDS and FrameWorks Plus. The common thread is disciplined model management: consistent marks, controlled revisions and reports that reconcile with the drawings.

Handover is part of the scope, not an afterthought. You receive the model, drawings, reports and machine files agreed for the package, with a revision register that shows what changed and why.

Scope & Deliverables

What we take on

  • Modelling of Defined Areas, Phases or Lots
  • Drawing Production from Your Model
  • Connection Modelling to Approved Details
  • Model Clean-Up and Numbering Reconciliation
  • Revision Incorporation on Issued Packages
  • Report and MTO Generation to Your Formats

Handover

  • Native Tekla Model or Model Merge Files
  • IFC Exports for Coordination
  • NC / DSTV Files Where Contracted
  • GA, Erection, Assembly and Part Drawings (PDF and DWG)
  • Bolt, Part and Assembly Reports
  • Revision Register and Query Log

Standards & Specifications

We follow your company detailing standard and the project specification; where they differ from the general codes we ask, rather than choose. Native model exchange depends on software versions and licensing, confirmed before work starts.

The scope of work records the applicable standards and editions for each package. A reference to a standard does not imply design verification or certification.

How a Package Runs

Inputs, model, checks, drawings and revisions, with information gaps raised before work proceeds.

  1. 01

    Set-Up

    Agree Tekla version, templates, numbering series, phases and exchange method.

  2. 02

    Model

    Model the agreed areas to your conventions and ownership boundaries.

  3. 03

    Checks

    Numbering, clashes, reports and drawings checked before handover.

  4. 04

    Drawings

    Drawings and reports produced on your templates.

  5. 05

    Handover

    Model, drawings, files and revision register returned for merge.

Which Tekla versions can you work in?

We confirm your Tekla Structures version and environment before work starts, and work in the version needed for a clean merge. Native model exchange depends on version compatibility and licensing.

Can you use our numbering and drawing templates?

Yes. Working to your numbering series, templates, report formats and phasing is the core of the service, so the package merges with your model without rework.

What do we receive at handover?

The model or merge files, drawings, reports and the exchange formats agreed for the package (typically Tekla model, DWG, PDF, IFC, NC / DSTV), with a revision register and the query log.

How quickly will we receive a quote?

We reply to quote requests within 24 hours (GCC working day). Send drawings or a scope summary with the deliverables, standards and target dates you have; where inputs are incomplete we list the assumptions we priced and the questions to close.

Can we start with a small trial package?

Yes. Our pilot is one assembly or a 5–10 t package, at a fixed price, delivered in 5 working days from receipt of complete inputs. It lets you check our model, drawing standard and checking on your own project before committing a larger package. NDA on request.

Send Your Drawings

We reply within 24 hours (GCC working day). A scope summary is enough to start; NDA on request.
