Selected Utility Oil & Gas Highlights:





 

Utility Oil and Gas Boilers

For over a half a century, we have been designing and manufacturing utility oil- and gas-fueled steam generators. Our utility steam generators have proven themselves with over 15 million hours of operation, up to 1000 MWe in size and burning a wide range of solid fuels, oils and gases.

Our natural circulation boilers provide their own circulating power to move water and steam efficiently through the furnace boiling sections. They are designed to be inherently safe by naturally increasing tube water flows as tube heat flow increases, under any normal or upset scenarios, without relying on pumps.

This safety feature is carried over in our exciting new supercritical once-through BENSON Vertical Tube (BVT) design, now offered as a design option on all our utility oil and gas steam generators. BVT is a highly efficient supercritical steam technology which can produce steam more efficiently and thereby more cleanly than other conventional steam generation technologies while offering a safe natural circulation characteristic, simple construction and low maintenance.

Key features:

  • Generous furnace volumes for efficient combustion of liquid and gaseous fuels

  • MONO-WALL finned-tube construction for gas tight furnace enclosure

  • Staged low NOx combustion systems

  • SCRs for the lowest NOx emissions
