The engineering challenge

## Conditions shaping the heating duty.

The overseas supply required two heating capacities with a consistent operating approach for hazardous-area oilfield service.

Equipment interfaces, remote operation, documentation, long-distance transportation and storage readiness formed part of the delivery scope.

Equipment configuration

## What the package includes.

Equipment capacities, interfaces and controls are matched to the project application.

Quantity and capacity

4 × 75 kW and 2 × 150 kW

Heat-transfer route

Indirect thermal-oil heating

Process interfaces

ASME B16.5 Class 600; 4-inch and 6-inch connections

Control

Siemens S7-200 SMART PLC; PID and SCR regulation

Communication

Modbus RTU / RS485

Hazardous-area configuration

Ex d IIB T4

Delivery

Companion parts, bilingual nameplates and export packaging

Package scope & interfaces

## Beyond the heater body.

The integration and handover scope documented for this project.

### Packaged equipment

Four 75 kW and two 150 kW indirect thermal-oil heater skids with removable heating elements.

### Controls & installation parts

Control cabinets, junction boxes, companion flanges, gaskets, fasteners and anchor bolts.

### Export handover

Inspection and operation documents, bilingual nameplates and export packaging.

Our approach

## Engineering the complete heating package.

### Indirect heating and maintenance

Thermal oil separates the electric elements from process media. Removable elements and skid integration provide a defined maintenance and installation boundary.

### Common control architecture

PLC, PID and SCR regulation provide temperature control with local and remote operating modes. Modbus supports temperature, alarm and status exchange with station controls.

### Export-ready supply

The scope includes control cabinets, junction boxes, companion flanges, gaskets, fasteners, anchor bolts, bilingual nameplates and inspection and operation documents, with export packaging.

Project value

## Delivery and application value.

### Manufacturing and supply result

Six heating skids in two capacities were supplied as an overseas equipment package, with process interfaces and supporting handover materials.

### Clear delivery boundary

This case demonstrates manufacturing and export scope. It does not claim a verified commissioning result or quantified field performance after installation.
