Why it matters

Key Benefits

Fired Heater Integrity

Tube thickness monitoring, skin temperature trending, and creep assessment prevents catastrophic tube failure and hydrocarbon release

Coating Cure Quality

Temperature profile monitoring across coating cure ovens ensures FBE and 3LPE adhesion and flexibility meet pipeline specifications

Burner Management Safety

BMS proof testing and flame safeguard verification ensures safe fired heater and oven light-off and operation

API Compliance

Monitoring and inspection programs aligned with API 560 and API 573 for fired heater integrity management

Context

Challenge & Approach

The Reliability Challenge

Oil and gas ovens and furnaces include safety-critical fired heaters with creep and tube degradation risk, coating cure ovens requiring precise temperature profiles for pipeline specifications, and burner management systems needing regular proof testing.

Our Approach

We perform fired heater tube thickness surveys, skin temperature monitoring, and flame impingement assessments aligned with API 560. Coating cure oven temperature profiling verifies specification compliance. Burner management system proof testing confirms safe operation. Deliverables include heater integrity reports and cure profile verification.
