Petroleum
Storage tanks, refining columns, reactors, exchangers, steam piping, spheres, process piping and other mechanical equipment are insulated to owner's specifications using proven techniques. Temperature stabilization can be controlled with heat tracing and the proper insulation materials. We specialize in annual maintenance contracts and turn-around projects.
Food Processing and Cold Storage
The specialized field of food processing and cold storage require the experience Petrochem has acquired to cover the spectrum of systems represented. High temperature dryers used in vegetable processing demand a significantly different insulating material and jacketing technique compared to the unforgiving moisture barrier of a refrigeration system. Let Petrochem's knowledge work for you.
Geothermal
