Project Description

Flooded Fired Heater Refinery Training

Four Story Creative was engaged by a Top 3 Oil Company to simulate various problems that could go wrong on a refinery site. One of the most dangerous is the Flooded Fired Heater.

Fired heater flooding is simply too much fuel going to the heater for the available combustion air. … A related problem is a sudden loss of hydrogen in the fuel which requires less air for combustion compared to other fuels, or switching to natural gas/methane which requires more air than many other hydrocarbons.

This simulation allowed a user to experience dangerous situations that in real life would have cost lives and extreme loss of refinery assets. The current training simulation is being deployed to sites around the world as a vital training tool.
