Refrigeration is a key part to every Filtrine chiller. The production process is a team effort, it is not unusual for us to be working on the same chiller at the same time. It also is important for us to have experience building Filtrine chillers as we have to be able to read the design worksheet and plumbing diagram for each order. I have been here for over 13 years and each day brings new challenges.

Industrial Chillers for the Oil and Gas Industry
Oil and gas chillers play a vital role in maintaining optimal temperatures for critical equipment and processes. From gas compressors to turbines, machinery in this sector often operates under high heat and pressure. Without adequate cooling, performance can suffer, safety risks increase, and equipment life is shortened. Filtrine’s industrial chillers are engineered to meet these challenges with reliability, customization, and safety at the forefront.
Why Temperature Control Is Essential in Oil & Gas Facilities
Cooling systems are essential for:
- Preventing equipment failure caused by overheating.
- Maintaining safety by minimizing fire and explosion risk in volatile environments.
- Ensuring regulatory compliance with safety and operational standards.
- Reducing downtime and extending equipment lifespan.
Temperature-sensitive operations like gas compression, oil refining, and petrochemical processing demand precise, dependable cooling to operate safely and efficiently.
