Vogt Power will deliver two (2) unfired natural circulation three pressure level HRSGs for use behind Siemens SGT6-5000F turbines. The primary fuel for the plant will be oil with moderate natural gas firing. The HRSGs will incorporate Vogt’s SMART design which features a high level of pre-assembly; modules, casing, interconnecting piping, and some structural steel all combined in one box, thereby simplifying and streamlining the processes for on-site construction. When complete the Termozulia III project will increase the power generation capacity for Venezuela’s national network.

“The growth in demand for natural gas combined cycle power plants and cogeneration units internationally has allowed Vogt Power to book eight projects outside the United States this year.  We believe the market will remain strong allowing us to continue our global expansion. We appreciate the confidence that Siemens has in our technology and execution and look forward to supplying our HRSGs for other Siemens projects,” stated Steve Kapsalis, President and CEO, Vogt Power International Inc.

Struthers has had a long History of innovation in the supply of Cabin style heaters dating back to the 1930s when it designed and supplied its first Cabin style Heater for its refinery turnkey contracting business. Through the 1940s Struthers designed and supplied the same style heaters in the styrene process application and fatty acid distillation processes. The cabin style heater was identified as an ideal heater for the Pyrolysis process; the decomposition or transformation of a compound caused by heat, also referred to as cracking. Cracking is a high temperature endothermic reaction and became popular to aid in chemical processing in both the petrochemical and pharmaceutical industries.

Struthers became involved in the development of furnaces for the cracking of Acetic acid for the production of acetic anhydride. Ketene is one of the intermediate products of the process and is produced during the cracking process; the furnaces are often referred to as Ketene Furnaces. “Through innovation, experience and excellent customer relations Struthers Wells continued supplying furnaces for various processes in the chemical, petrochemical and pharmaceutical industries world wide. As a leading supplier of these types of furnaces Struthers Wells is pleased to have been selected to supply the Ketene Furnaces to BAE Systems,” stated Ken Murakoshi, President of Struthers Wells.

The U.S. Department of Labor, OSHA’s on-Site Consultation Safety and Health Achievement Program (“SHARP”) recognizes small employers who operate an exemplary safety and health management system. TEi will be honored for their achievement during a ceremony at their Sapulpa, OK facility.

TEi began implementing a safety and health management program in 2010, after their first On-Site Safety Consultation with the Department’s Division of Labor Standards. These consultations are discretionary, and are initiated by employers who want to provide a safe work environment for their workers.

“SHARP has enhanced our plant safety culture. The efforts put forth through the audit process have increased our safety awareness, and made a substantial decrease in the reduction of workers compensation cost,” says Phil Randall, General Operations Manager of Thermal Engineering International (USA), Inc.

SHARP was implemented in Oklahoma in the mid 1990’s and has since offered the highest level consultative services to businesses with 250 or fewer employees. The Oklahoma On-Site Safety and Health Consultation Program is the prerequisite for those who wish to be a part of SHARP.  It is designed to promote effective workplace safety and health program management by helping the employer locate and remove existing hazards in the facility, thereby reducing injuries and illnesses. SHARP is a reward program designed to provide incentives and support to smaller, high-hazard employers to work with their employees to develop, implement, and continuously improve the effectiveness of their workplace safety and health programs.
