repHEN (Repsol Heat Exchanger Network)
repHEN (Repsol Heat Exchanger Network)
A tool for monitor fouling in heat exchangers. It defines optimal cleaning strategies, make the most of sudden shutdowns, identifies opportunities to improve equipment and processes, and analyzes investments for active cleaning, therefore increasing CO2 reduction from 3% to 10%.
Replacement of compressors
Replacement of compressors
Replacement of two compressors for a more efficient model with a variable speed motor in the Petronor refinery in Muskiz, Spain, which allow for the optimization of power consumption, therefore leading to a 77,000-metric ton reduction in CO2 emissions each year.
Improving the efficiency of furnaces
Improving the efficiency of furnaces
Two new air preheaters were installed in two furnaces at the refinery in Cartagena (Spain) in order to recover residual heat and thereby reduce CO2 emissions by 14,000 metric tons per year.
Oil well optimization
Oil well optimization
Development of a tool to evaluate electrical submersible pumping systems in the oil wells of Block 16 and 67, located in Ecuador. This action enables the annual reduction of 4,500 tonnes of CO2.
