The stainless steel heat exchanger consisted of 3400 tubes with a 12 ft diameter nozzle welded into the 12 ft diameter shell. This unit weighed in at 250,000 lbs and couldn’t be rolled for most of the fabrication so most of the welding was done out of position. This unit serves as the workhorse in the end users process.
