Replacement of existing equipment

Our experience in the oil and gas industry enables us to offer optimum solutions for replacing another manufacturer’s internals, with confirmation that the specified process parameters will be achieved.

Are you sure your column is operating under optimum conditions?

We work with various types of columns and separators, providing a full cycle of services from analysis and design through installation and bringing equipment to the specified operating conditions. All our solutions are developed to meet the customer’s specific needs and ensure reliability, safety and high capacity.


Our many years of experience in the oil and gas sector since 1993 enable us to confidently offer customers unique integrated solutions for replacing equivalent internals made by other manufacturers. We offer a wide range of services aimed at improving your production efficiency.

About

Unique solutions for equipment upgrading and replacement

More than 30 years of successful work in the oil and gas and petrochemical sectors make our company a reliable partner capable of offering customers unique integrated solutions for upgrading and replacing similar internals made by other manufacturers. Our activities directly support the strategic import substitution of oil and gas equipment. We offer a broad range of column and separator internals for separation processes, including distillation, absorption and stripping, and manufacture a wide range of reactor internals for hydrotreating and reforming processes.

Sulzer Chemtech LLC

The production facility is located in Serpukhov, Moscow Region, Russia. The plant was originally opened in 2008 by the Russian subsidiary of the Swiss company Sulzer Chemtech (Sulzer Chemtech LLC). After 2022, the facility changed ownership and continues to operate under its new name, Spliteks LLC. Today, amid active import substitution, we retain the same expertise and manufacture equipment that meets international quality standards.

Technology and experience serving your efficiency

Our process specialists and engineers have extensive practical experience and guarantee the selection of optimum internals based on process and economic parameters. The process begins with a thorough performance assessment or audit of the current condition of column, reactor and separator internals. A project is then developed and the optimum models and types of internals are selected: mass-transfer trays with moving and fixed valves, bubble-cap, cascade and sieve trays, structured and random packing, mist eliminators, droplet separators, multi-cassette devices, centrifugal separation devices, mesh coalescers and static mixers for petrochemical processes—including mixers for low-viscosity gas and liquid flows and for in-line mixing or emulsification of viscous liquids—as well as distribution and guard trays, quench inlet and mixing devices, outlet collectors, retaining grids, centre pipes and Johnson-screen scallops. We also specialise in the complete range of work required to replace internals.

Replacement of equipment from any manufacturer

We offer comprehensive replacement of obsolete or inefficient oil and gas and petroleum equipment made by other manufacturers, including Koch-Glitsch, Shell Global, Lianhua Valve Group, Sinopec, Nanjing Sunpower Industries Development, Zhejiang Kecheng Industrial Technology, Chevron Lummus Global, Neftegazovye Sistemy i Tekhnologii (NGST), IVTs Inzhekhim, NovomoskovskGazDetal, Tekhnokhim and Amistco Separation Products (AMISTCO). We can also manufacture one-for-one equivalents of equipment from Axens, Honeywell UOP, Topsoe, Rifing, Strong and TopTech in accordance with customer specifications and the design documentation provided.

Our key competence is the technical upgrading of units through replacement of oil and gas equipment. When an operating unit needs to be upgraded, process efficiency optimised, product quality improved (gasoline, fuel oil, diesel fuel, kerosene, etc.) or amine-treatment parameters calculated, Spliteks LLC can promptly address the requirement and replace obsolete internals within a short lead time. We provide a comprehensive service covering the dismantling, repair and installation of internals.
