Flexible ceramic heatshield solves temperature issues at isolated Caspian Sea oil platform
The ability to retro-fit ZircoFlex® heatshield enables oil engineers to quickly and effectively protect a HVAC unit from a flare stack in a harsh environment.OXFORD – The ability to retrofit a heat shield in a harsh and isolated environment without having to force a costly shutdown led to engineers specifying ZircoFlex® flexible ceramic heat shield on a Caspian Sea oil platform. The close proximity of the HVAC air handling unit to a flare stack had led to surface temperatures of up to 80˚C, risking crucial reliability issues for the production facility. The unique flexibility offered by
