Engineering Increased Performance
Vorteil’s engineers make units hum. We stay in the box to meet codes and specs, while thinking out of the box to delight our customers. We are a small but tight department that is focused on one objective: your unit’s safe performance.
Many Disciplines, One Unit
The Vorteil team includes the mechanical, process, electrical, and design disciplines. Our principals have over 25 years of experience in the midstream and downstream energy sectors, including design and commissioning experience on product terminals, crude distillation units, hydrotreaters, catalytic reformers, splitters, gas, and biogas facilities.
Core Competencies and Tools
- Oil and Gas Processes – From the simulation on through data sheets and detailed design, Vorteil is prepared to specify and validate the process on your energy project. Our default tool is Aspen HYSIS
- Heat Exchange – The Vorteil team is proficient in shell-and-tube exchangers, air coolers, fired heaters, electric heaters, and entirely custom methods of heat exchange. We use HTRI software to rate exchangers.
- Piping – Our mechanical engineers understand pipe, valve, and fitting codes and standards, and how to apply them correctly. We know how to keep pipe stress from damaging equipment. An internal program calculates code compliance and we use Rohr2 or Caesar II for stress.
- Pressure Vessels – Our welding and vessel engineer has designed hundreds of pressure vessels in carbon, stainless, alloy, and exotic metals. We use PVElite.
- Electrical – With an electrical engineer on staff, we will ensure your project is correctly sized for the equipment and infrastructure.
- Integration and Automation – Our team understands controls, measurement, and plant automation.
- Design – Our design team can model small skids to entire plants, including P&IDs, models, and fabrication drawings. We use AutoCAD Plant3D.
- Custom Engineering – Our team isn’t too timid to produce solutions for entirely novel problems. Let’s build new things together.
