Upstream Oil and Gas

Upstream markets commonly include all the equipment between the oil/gas reservoir and the outlet of the choke valve on the wellhead/Christmas tree, and incorporate all the activities associated with the installation of this equipment.

These processes typically include drilling the well, installing the casing, cementing it in place, hydraulic or mechanical fracturing of the well formation, and, finally, movement of the product to the wellhead. It is a term commonly used to refer to the search for, recovery, operation, and production of crude oil and natural gas. The upstream market is also known as the exploration and production (E&P) sector.

For upstream oil and gas markets, we provide equipment, products, and systems & services used to search for and produce onshore and offshore oil and gas, and exploration/development--through drilling, production, and completion of oil and natural gas.

Midstream Oil and Gas

The midstream market begins at the outlet of the wellhead choke valve and extends to the fence around the refinery or petrochemical plant. It includes all the ancillary equipment – such as oil field heaters that warm crude oil, required to move the product through the gathering and pipeline systems to the processing plants – as well as the gas processing plants that prepare and purify the raw natural gas for entrance into the major pipeline systems.

The gathering system collects crude oil and/or wet natural gas from the wellheads and transports it to a refinery or gas processing plant. The gathering system can range from a small system where gas is processed close to the wellhead, to a system that consists of thousands of miles of pipe collecting gas or crude oil from many wells.

Midstream activities include the processing, storing, transporting and marketing of oil, natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), and natural gas liquids (NGL's).

For midstream oil and gas markets, we provide product heating and cooling throughout midstream processes.

Refinery and Petrochemical

Petrochemical processing covers the distillation, stripping, degassing, dehydrating, desulphurizing, and purifying of the crude oil to its constituent components or the natural gas to methane with traces of mercaptain added.

For petrochemical processing markets, we provide products, services & technologies to move-and-process produced oil and gas: Refining, gas processing, petrochemical manufacturing.

Power Generation

The Power Generation industry is engaged in the conversion of energy – converting chemical or atomic energy of a fuel to mechanical energy and finally into electrical energy. Power plants typically generate power by burning fossil fuels (coal, gas, oil) through nuclear or renewable sources and methods (solar, water, wind).

The power generation market is comprised of electric utilities and industrial power producers. Utilities generate, transmit, and distribute electricity for sale in a local market, while industrial power plants generate electrical power for use within the industrial facility, such as a power plant within a steel mill or within a desalination plant. Utilities and industrial power plants can be categorized by fuel or by design such as Cogeneration, Combined Cycle, Coal Gasification, Super-Critical, Ultra-Critical, Nuclear, and Hydro-electric.

For power generation markets, we provide equipment and services to keep the operations safely and efficiently "up and running" at all levels.

Maritime

Maritime – or shipbuilding – is an important and strategic industry deploying mature and reliable equipment and systems. Shipyards often play a significant role for the regional industrial infrastructure and, with regards to military shipbuilding, for national security interests. The shipbuilding industry includes construction of complex vessels such as cruise ships, navy ships including air craft carriers, battleships, destroyers, submarines and logistical and support ships, ferries, coast guard vessels, yachts and dredgers.

Ships powered by diesel or diesel-electric motors use an auxiliary boiler fired by diesel fuel and produce steam that powers the ship's evaporators, providing hot and cold water for crew and workmen aboard the vessel. The auxiliary boiler also provides a source of heat for compartment, offices, cabins and spaces.

Auxiliary steam systems supply steam at the pressures and temperatures required to support operation of several systems and machinery, both inside and outside engineering spaces. Some typical examples are constant and intermittent service steam systems, steam smothering systems, ships' whistles, air ejectors, forced draft blowers, and a wide variety of pumps.

For maritime markets, we provide equipment and services to keep the operations safely and efficiently "up and running" at all levels.

Renewables

The renewables market is a burgeoning segment in the energy industry. We provide a wide range of renewables solutions that are expertly applied or custom engineered to meet the business needs of a global customer base.
