Melbourne Welding Inspections was founded with a clear mission: to raise the standard of welding quality, and compliance across Australia’s construction and resources industries. At the heart of our business is Beaudean D’Astol, a respected industry leader with over 26 years of hands-on experience in structural, mechanical, and piping (SMP) works.
Beaudean’s career spans some of the country’s most complex and high-profile projects across oil & gas, mining, civil infrastructure, and heavy industry. Having worked with major players like CPB Contractors, Bechtel, Chevron, and ExxonMobil, he brings unmatched expertise in welding inspection, QA/QC, and project supervision.
As Director and Principal Welding Consultant, Beaudean leads a team committed to delivering practical, code-compliant solutions that support fabricators, contractors, and asset owners. Whether it’s developing welding procedures, qualifying welders, or guiding clients through ISO 3834.2 and AS/NZS 5131 CC3 compliance, our focus is always on precision, reliability, and results.
At Melbourne Welding Inspections, we don’t just tick boxes—we help build confidence in every weld.
