Petrochemical

Retubing, cleaning and leak detection of heat exchangers, surface condensers and turbine condensers in petrochemical plants, plus tubesheet manufacturing and new-unit installation.

Heat exchangers in a petrochemical plant

What petrochemical plants are up against

  • Short turnarounds. Exchanger retubing is normally done during a planned turnaround, so tube specifications and quantities need to be confirmed well ahead.
  • Corrosion and fouling. Corroded, leaking or fouled tubes lose heat transfer and call for cleaning, leak testing or retubing.
  • A range of tube materials. Our references include both copper alloy and stainless steel retubes.
