Applications of Sofasco’s Cooling Fans in the Oil and Gas Industry

Our cooling fans are used in various applications across the oil and gas industry. The following are a few important ones.

  • Gas Compression Stations:

    Compressor stations are designed to transport natural gas from individual well sites to the final destination. Compression of the gas produces high amount of heat and demands adequate cooling for continuous and safe operation. This is where our cooling fans can help.

  • Downstream Processing:

    Refineries and petrochemical facilities use cooling equipment for heat rejection processes. We, at Sofasco, supply AC/DC fans to improve the feasibility of heat rejection processes.

  • LNG Production:

    The liquefaction process demands a high cooling capacity, and requires utility cooling throughout the site. This requirement is efficiently met using our various AC/DC fans for the oil and gas industry.

Tips to Choose Cooling Fans for Oil and Gas Industry

Cooling fans are operated in challenging operating environments in the oil and gas industry. If the fans are not chosen carefully, the application runs the risk of increased downtimes and worker injuries. It is important to choose the right cooling fan to ensure efficiency, minimal downtimes, and safety of the people and premises. The following tips will be helpful when choosing these fans for your oil facilities.

  • Temperature Specifications:

    The maximum ambient temperature that a fan would be subjected on installation needs to be addressed. Choosing the wrong ambient temperature would result in buying a fan with additional BTUs of cooling.

  • Location:

    Check if the fan will be used indoors or outdoors. If it has to be used outdoors, the fans will be exposed to sun fully or partially. The solar heat load will have an effect on the cooling capacity of the fan.

  • Insulation:

    See if the fan is insulated properly. The insulation material will resist the flow of heat through it.
