Heater Types

Fired-heater applications run the gamut across the oil refining and petrochemical industries, and in recent years an array of new heater designs have come on-line for specific uses.

Collectively, the OnQuest companies have design principals with an exhaustive knowledge of fired-heater applications, performance characteristics, and limitations. Our professionals have decades of engineering and process design experience; the technologies and applications we are familiar with include traditional refinery heaters, such as:

  • Cokers
  • Vacuum heaters
  • Crude heaters
  • Platformers
  • Reboilers
  • Visbreakers
  • Fractionators
  • Hot oil heaters
  • Isomerization heaters

We are experienced in the following applications:

  • Steam Reformers
  • EDC Crackers
  • Steam Superheaters
  • Catalytic Reformers
  • CO Boilers
  • Waste Heat Recovery Units

Our experts have designed all the traditional geometries of fired equipment, including vertical cylindrical, box, and cabin heaters, and variants including up-, down-, double-, and side-fired heaters. We can accommodate all coil arrangements, from single-pass, multi-pass, and split pass, in horizontal or vertical configurations.
