What Heaters Revamp Technologies does

Heaters Revamp Technologies, LLC is a privately held, Houston (Katy), Texas-based engineering consultancy specializing exclusively in fired heaters for refineries, chemical, and petrochemical complexes. The firm offers an integrated service portfolio covering design, engineering, revamping, troubleshooting, inspection, testing, project execution, and start-up assistance for fired heaters and boilers, complemented by a training division branded as the Heater Institute of Technology™ that delivers six standardized courses and customized on-site training worldwide. Its technology stack is built on proprietary in-house computer simulations and heat & mass balance calculations for root-cause analysis, paired with field-grade instrumentation including EPA-verified portable emissions analyzers and IR thermography cameras capable of imaging through flames to detect tube skin temperatures, hot spots, flame impingement, and refractory failures.

The business operates a project-based professional services model: engagements are scoped to client needs across engineering studies, field services, training, and project execution, with quote-based pricing and no public disclosure of rates. The firm claims worldwide service reach, targeting the global installed base of refining and petrochemical fired heaters, and is positioning into the energy transition through its Low-Neutral-Zero Carbon Emission Technologies (HECCS) offering covering hydrogen firing and CO2 capture integration, as well as ISO 50001 energy management and energy audit services. The company is led by Technical Director Kandasamy V (Kanda), who authors the Heater-ology technical blog (127 published articles) that anchors the firm's content marketing across LinkedIn, YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. Heaters Revamp Technologies is independently owned with no disclosed institutional investors, parent entities, funding rounds, or acquisition activity.
