Throughout the entire oil and gas value chain, our electric thermal, sensing and leak detection systems protect your people and assets and keep your critical processes flowing. Both onshore and offshore, from arctic cold to desert heat, we guarantee safety, efficiency, and environmental responsibility. All our solutions are designed to perform in hazardous areas.
- Upstream: everything from geological surveys to drilling wells and bringing hydrocarbons to the surface, often in harsh, remote areas with severe weather conditions.
- Midstream: includes transportation (thru pipelines, tankers, railroads), storage (in tank terminals, underground reservoirs), processing and separation of NGL’s before further distribution.
- Downstream: includes refineries, petrochemical processing, storage, and distribution of the resulting liquids like gasoline, diesel, bitumen, and petrochemicals.
Key challenges in the Oil & Gas industry include:
- oil viscosity issues
- wax & paraffin problems at oil wells and in pipelines
- icing on offshore platforms & exploration vessels
- frozen water condensate lines and instruments
- hydrocarbon leaks to the environment
- frost heave of LNG tank foundations
- process temperatures for efficient separation of NGL’s from natural gas
- heat loss of sensitive liquids in storage tanks
- and more
