Keeping up with current fabrication technology is both a passion and career for Jeremiah Weekley. As president of Longview, Texas-based Fabrication Solutions and Technologies (FST), Weekley not only has to understand the dynamic nature of the industry, he also has to help customers understand and envision fabrication methods that are somewhat outside the box by North American standards.
FST offers systems for tank and vessel manufacturing in industries such as food and beverage, dairy, pharmaceutical, renewable energy, oil and gas, and aerospace. Its turnkey options provide all the components necessary for tank and vessel production. To sell customers on fabrication methods and equipment that are technologically progressive requires extensive knowledge of the process as well as equipment partners who can remove the uncertainty surrounding a new process with training and expertise.
