Pipefitters working from blueprints and specifications install and maintain
piping systems in petro-chemical plants and commercial projects.
Lee College sits at the center of the largest petro-chemical complex
in the world. New construction of plants, remodeling and overhauling
of existing facilities and the maintenance of these plants are the main
source of employment in our immediate industrial area. Pipefitters can
expect to progress from entry level helper, to journeyman to supervisor
as their knowledge and experience increase. Most area companies have
standing calls for pipefitters.
