Radiators for higher efficiency in petrochemical plant in Oman

For a major company in the Oil and Gas sector, Tempco has supplied a series of radiators aimed at cooling a bunch of generator sets on a petrochemical plant at the customer’s facility in Oman. The project aimed to replace the obsolete radiators in use at the production site, with the aim of increasing efficiency.

The radiators use pressure fans, due to the high temperatures of the air coming out of the facility, as they are in fact radiators that dissipate the high amounts of heat generated by endothermic engines. Due to the location of the installation, the protection of the thermal transfer pack was guaranteed with electrofin treatment for aggressive, saline/marine environments.

The installation includes:

– n. 3 radiators of 700 kw each
– 12 fans for each radiator
– expansion tanks supplied as completion, equipped with electrical control panel

For shipping, the equipment was packed in a sea crate and using a barrier bag. The complete commissioning of the order, from design to supply, took a total of 10 months, and the results were of great satisfaction for the end user.
