SYNOPSIS
Heat Exchangers are widely used in the industry especially in Oil & Gas. There are various types of heat exchangers which are selected based on specific intended process requirement.
The talk will provide an overview on types of heat exchangers commonly used in Oil & Gas industry based on the Codes & Standards used during the design. Common types will be the Shell & Tube Heat Exchangers, Air Cooled Heat Exchangers, Double Pipe Heat Exchangers and Plate Heat Exchangers. This will be followed by the sample fabrication processes which touch on the common welding processes such as GTAW, SMAW, SAW and main forming processes such as plate rolling and tube bending.
Common failures in heat exchangers such as tube leaks, tube fouling etc and typical maintenance work such as High Pressure Water Jet Cleaning (HPWJ), tube plugging, tube rolling etc will be shared based on personal hands on experience. This will be followed by type of Non Destructive Tests (NDTs) and Inspection carried out during fabrication and maintenance repair.
