The engineering challenge
Conditions shaping the heating duty.
Mixed incoming production streams create variable crude properties, while cold weather increases viscosity and wax-deposition risk.
Wind-blown sand, snow and wide seasonal temperatures require an outdoor heating package that combines flow assurance, maintainability and hazardous-area equipment design.

Package scope & interfaces
Beyond the heater body.
The integration and handover scope documented for this project.
Controls & connections
PLC/SCR regulation and RS485 Modbus RTU communication for plant control interfaces.
Field interfaces
Insulation, winterization, bypass and maintenance access considered in the equipment arrangement.
Our approach
Engineering the complete heating package.
Controlled heating interface
The induction route and reciprocating heat-transfer path are arranged to deliver heat while managing excessive local surface temperatures and deposition risk.
Integrated skid delivery
Heater units, skid piping, valves, instruments, explosion-proof controls, insulation and winterization interfaces are integrated before delivery. Bypass and maintenance access are considered in the arrangement.
Automation and protection
PLC and SCR regulation match output to outlet-temperature demand. Protection covers temperature, pressure, low flow and electrical faults, with manual reset after protected shutdown.
Project value
Delivery and application value.
Process duty
The package is configured to reduce viscosity-related flow difficulties and provide a more stable feed temperature for downstream separation.
Field operation
The defined skid boundary and remote-monitoring interface support installation and station operation. Efficiency and service-life design targets are not presented as measured operating results.
