FAQs

1. Why are indirect-fired heaters preferred in oil and gas operations?

In oil and gas operations, indirect-fired heaters are preferred because they provide safe, controlled heating for process fluids like crude oil, natural gas, or water, especially in environments where explosive vapours are present, as there's no direct exposure to flames or combustion gases.

2. How does an indirect-fired heater maintain efficiency in extreme weather conditions?

Indirect-fired heaters maintain efficiency in extreme weather by enclosing the combustion process and insulating the heat exchanger, minimizing heat loss and ensuring consistent output even in freezing temperatures or high-wind environments, making them suitable for remote or Arctic installations.

3. Can indirect-fired heaters be used for freeze protection in pipelines?

Yes, indirect-fired heaters are commonly used for freeze protection in pipelines, especially in remote or cold regions, as they provide consistent, controlled heat to prevent fluids from freezing or becoming too viscous without introducing combustion gases into the system.

4. What fuels can be used to operate an indirect-fired heater?

Indirect-fired heaters are versatile in fuel options and can typically operate using natural gas, propane, diesel, or even electricity in some models, allowing operators to choose based on availability, cost, and environmental regulations in the deployment area.

5. Are indirect-fired heaters safe for heating breathable air in confined spaces?

Yes, indirect-fired heaters are considered safe for heating breathable air in confined spaces like construction sites, tents, or temporary shelters because they exhaust combustion gases outside the space, preventing the buildup of harmful fumes such as carbon monoxide.
