Heating Skid

Marathon manufactures  Heating Skids which are a sub-assembly of a complete Fuel Gas Filtration Packages Skids or Fuel Gas Conditioning Systems. These systems are used to preheat the fuel gas to the desired temperature at specific pressure and flow rate, before feeding to the actual process (or equipment such as Gas operated Turbines, generators or other process applications). This system can also be used for superheating the gas for other industrial applications.

They are specially designed to monitor, control the Gas flow with multiple safety features for the risk-free operation. Also, by considering the incoming gas properties along environmental conditions to achieve the desired outlet flow conditions.

As the demand for more versatile unit applications are growing in recent years,  we have increased the number of skids, giving rise to a new design range. Thus we manufacture mobile heaters shaped as Compact Skids, of application in both heating and cooling process. We perform “customized” executions by designing each skid in accordance with the requirements of the end-user, either composed of thermal oil heater or only recirculation units or secondary groups. The main targets of these skids are petrochemicals and asphalt sector; the automotive industry or the wood sector, for heating presses etc.
A Typical P & ID is as shown in the picture.

Construction:
Each of our  Fuel Gas Heater Skid is custom-made to suit respective process specifications.

A Typical Fuel Gas Heater Skid consist of:-

  1. Electric heater bundle.
  2. Pressure vessel or housing for the heater bundle.
  3. Control Panel for the Heater operation control.
  4. Temperature sensors such as RTD’s, Thermocouples, Temperature transmitters.
  5. Pressure safety valve.
  6. Valves for flow control.
  7. Power & instrument wiring.
  8. Skid base for easy installation at site.

Note: Additional scope such as extended piping, scrubber installation, Instrumentation for flow, pressure & level monitoring, etc. can be provided for specific requirement.
