Our process engineers have designed, upgraded and optimized chemical plants, refineries, offshore oil and gas platforms, compressor stations, cogeneration facilities and mining operations. The Chemical and Process Engineering Department is large enough to handle several major projects simultaneously. Collectively, the members have direct work experience in areas as diverse as chemical manufacture, minerals processing, refinery operations, oil field services and even research and development. Over half the members are licensed as professional engineers. The majority of those are licensed in more than one branch of engineering.
Several members hold advanced degrees as well.
Using this sophisticated tool, they can rapidly and efficiently generate material and energy balances, evaluate alternative designs, perform sensitivity studies, eliminate bottlenecks, optimize control strategies, size equipment and predict outputs. In existing facilities, our process engineers can apply the simulator to track production, optimize yield and predict emissions. Supplementing these are a number of programs that have been written in-house for sizing and selecting common types of process equipment. The Chemical and Process Department's range of services extends well beyond design. Whether the project is large or small, onshore or offshore, new or retrofit, our talented staff can provide any chemical or process engineering service that the client might need.
