Process Cooling

Refrigeration Engineering’s traditional core

business is process cooling. In this field we
apply our experience and leading edge
technology to develop innovative solutions for
our customers’ requirements.
For example, by using 3D solid modelling and CFD analysis, our
DOW CHEMICALS
Altona, Australia highly skilled experienced team of engineers and designers has
Glycol Cooling Package been able to design ultra efficient separation systems. Another
good example is our success in engineering a refrigeration system
using the lowest temperature oil flooded screw compressor ever
installed, operating down to -100°C.
We turn advanced concepts like this into reliable, practical
solutions. Benefits to our customers include high system
efficiency, high reliability, low power requirements, low
maintenance, compact operator friendly packages, with safety
as our highest priority.
Typical equipment applications of our process cooling technology
include gas liquefaction, fertiliser plants, glycol cooling and
EXXON-MOBIL thermal storage for flattening load peaks in batch processes.

Gas Compression

At Refrigeration Engineering we take

a flexible approach to designing gas
compression packages specific to customer
requirements. This involves a high level of
interface engineering, taking into account
associated equipment, difficult site conditions
and unusual operating parameters.
Our experience and expertise is in total gas compression
solutions, and includes:

NEWFIELD AUSTRALIA • Fuel gas compression.

Challis Venture FPSO, Timor Sea
• Lift gas booster compressors to increase capacity
Lift Gas Booster Compression Package
Installed to increase capacity in ageing fields.
• Wet, dirty and corrosive gases.
• Screw and reciprocating compressor systems.
Our gas compression packages include lube oil systems,
scrubbers and separators, pre-coolers/pre-heaters and
aftercoolers, as well as accumulators to dampen pulsation
and allow uninterrupted flow during compressor changeover.
The materials in our compressors include stainless steel,
normal and low temperature carbon steels, and cast iron.
Piping and exchangers can include exotic materials such
as cupro-nickel, special alloy steels and titanium.

Factory Acceptance Testing
Factory acceptance testing (FAT) is a routine part of our production process. End users, EPC and client
representatives are most welcome to visit our premises for FAT. Along with witnessed performance tests and
provision of test reports, typical FAT involves documentation and certificates of conformity reviews.

Third Party Inspections

Third party inspections by internationally recognised inspection agencies can be arranged by Refrigeration
Engineering, or appointed by our clients.

Training
Our qualified personnel can provide training on process, mechanical, electrical, PLC operation, maintenance
and hazardous area safety requirements, either at our premises or at your site. Training can be combined with
site commissioning visits or arranged on a stand alone basis.

Spare Parts
Lifetime spare parts support is an
integral part of our customer service
commitment. Components are based on
industry standards such as IEC and DIN for
standardisation. Should a component part
for a Refrigeration Engineering unit become
unavailable from the original supplier,
we will provide an alternative and include
a retrofit kit and installation instructions.

Consulting
Our staff can provide specialist advice
