SSTECH was awarded the contract to design, manufacture, and supply a complete shell & tube heat exchanger package for a refinery expansion project. The scope involved meeting stringent process conditions, international design codes, and aggressive project timelines while ensuring high reliability and operational safety.
The project demanded heat exchangers capable of operating under high pressure and temperature conditions while complying with international standards. Limited installation space and a compressed delivery schedule added further complexity, requiring optimized design and efficient manufacturing execution.
SSTECH delivered a customized shell & tube heat exchanger solution through detailed thermal and mechanical engineering. The exchangers were designed as per ASME Section VIII and TEMA standards, fabricated using certified materials, and subjected to rigorous quality control and factory acceptance testing to ensure reliable long-term performance.
