MIDSTREAM OIL & GAS FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is process heating used for in Midstream Oil & Gas?
Process heating helps Midstream operators treat, dehydrate, condition, transport, store, and process natural gas, NGLs, liquids, and vapors.
Where are burner management systems used in processing plants?
Burner management systems are used on fired equipment that needs controlled ignition, flame supervision, temperature control, and safe shutdown. In gas processing plants, this can include hot oil heaters, heat medium heaters, TEG reboilers, amine reboilers, NGL fractionation reboilers, combustors, and flares.
Why do hot oil heaters need reliable burner management?
Hot oil heaters need reliable burner management because they provide process heat for gas treating, dehydration, fractionation, and other plant operations. A burner management system helps the heater start safely, prove flame, maintain stable operation, and shut down if unsafe conditions are detected.
How does combustion control support gas processing operations?
Combustion control helps gas processing facilities maintain stable heat input, consistent burner performance, and better visibility into fired equipment operation. This supports heating processes such as dehydration, treating, hot oil circulation, reboiler service, and vapor management.
What Midstream fired equipment does Profire support?
Profire supports Midstream fired equipment such as hot oil heaters, heat medium heaters, line heaters, station heaters, glycol dehydrators, TEG reboilers, amine reboilers, combustors, flares, and fuel gas heaters. The right solution depends on the application, burner type, fuel train, draft type, communication needs, and site requirements.
Can Profire support forced draft or multi-burner Midstream applications?
Yes. Profire supports natural draft, forced draft, single-burner, dual-burner, and multi-burner Midstream applications. These systems may require advanced burner management, fuel delivery, air control, flame detection, communications, and commissioning support.
Can Profire systems integrate with facility controls or SCADA?
Yes. Many Profire burner management systems can connect with facility controls or SCADA, depending on the controller, configuration, and communication infrastructure. This helps operators monitor burner status, alarms, shutdowns, temperatures, and other equipment information from a central location.
