The Challenge

Why Refineries Need Expert Thermography

Process Heater & Furnace Failures

Undetected coke buildup, refractory degradation, and flame impingement in fired heaters can lead to tube ruptures, unplanned shutdowns, and catastrophic safety incidents. Early thermal detection is critical.

Complex, High-Value Assets

Refineries operate billions of dollars in interconnected process equipment running 24/7. A single equipment failure can cascade through the plant, costing millions per day in lost production and emergency repairs.

Stringent Safety & Compliance

Oil & gas facilities require contractors with verified safety credentials, drug testing compliance, and site-specific training. ISNetworld, Avetta, and PICS qualification are table stakes for refinery work.

Our Capabilities

Refinery & Petrochemical Inspection Services

Comprehensive thermal inspection capabilities for every system in your oil & gas operation.

Process Heater & Furnace Tube Inspection

Detect coke buildup, refractory failure, flame impingement, and hot spots in fired heaters and process furnaces before tube rupture or efficiency loss.

Heat Exchanger Efficiency Evaluation

Identify fouling, internal bypass, and tube failures in shell-and-tube exchangers through thermal pattern analysis.

Refractory-Lined Vessel Inspection

Scan reactors, regenerators, and refractory-lined vessels for hot spots indicating lining degradation or failure.

Electrical Distribution Thermography

Inspect MCCs, switchgear, transformers, bus duct, and cable terminations in hazardous classified areas.

Rotating Equipment Monitoring

Combined thermal and vibration analysis on pumps, compressors, turbines, and cooling tower fans.

Steam System & Steam Trap Surveys

Identify failed steam traps, insulation deficiencies, and energy losses in steam distribution systems.

Pipeline & CUI Detection

Infrared scanning of insulated piping to detect corrosion under insulation (CUI) — a leading cause of refinery piping failures.

Tank Farm & Storage Vessel Inspections

Thermal imaging for liquid level verification, shell integrity assessment, and floating roof seal condition.

Turnaround & Shutdown Support

Supporting Your Maintenance Windows

Refinery turnarounds are high-stakes events where every hour counts. Invizions provides pre-turnaround baseline inspections to prioritize scope, on-site support during shutdowns, and post-turnaround verification to confirm repairs and establish new monitoring baselines.

Pre-Turnaround Baseline Scans

Systematic thermal surveys 30-60 days before scheduled turnarounds to identify equipment requiring attention and prioritize maintenance scope.

Post-Turnaround Verification

Thermal inspections after maintenance to verify repairs, confirm proper reassembly, and establish new baselines for ongoing monitoring.

On-Site Shutdown Support

Dedicated thermography support during planned shutdowns for real-time inspection of equipment as it becomes accessible.

Emergency Response

Rapid deployment for unplanned events — thermal investigation of failures, hot work monitoring, and emergency equipment assessment.
