In many cases it is necessary to preheat the wellstream fluids prior to separation and to minimize the risk of hydrate formation downstream. We provide high pressure heat exchangers to accomplish this.
Unlike typical shell and tube heat exchangers, which have small diameter tubes, our well test heaters consist of high pressure pipe coils available in 5,000 psi and 10,000 psi working pressure. This design insures a durable, robust heat exchanger that is resistant to plugging and fouling. Coils are designed and fabricated to meet applicable ASME codes and API standards. Low pressure coils are available for heating applications where lower operating pressures are encountered. Heat exchangers can be supplied complete with a steam generator unit where requested.
