Engineered solutions designed to optimize performance, capture value, and keep your operations compliant.
Texas Fabco Solutions is a registered and certified fabricator for ASME and/or National Board stamped pressure vessels. Although we specialize in oil and gas production equipment, we can provide solutions to many different industries.
Packaged skid units consist of ASME stamped, or Non-Code vessel mounted to a structural skid frame with detailed piping and/or instrumentation components. These skid packages range from 2-phase and 3-phase separators, to heater treaters, vapor recovery units, H2S contactors, measurement skids, and so many more.
Packaged units are constructed with pressure vessels and may include piping, instrumentation, and are fully painted to client specs. These units are generally crafted to reduced in-field construction as the 3-phase separation units used for allocation measurement and/or emulsion separation. Full vessel and piping is constructed in-shop. Sand blasting and internal coating is used on pressure vessels if requested by client. This is typically done to service pressure vessels to combat corrosive liquids and gasses and add additional corrosion allowance to prolong vessel life. External sandblasting and painting is used on the outside of vessels and piping to match the clients desired color.
Texas Fabco Solutions has many answers when it comes to process simulations and in-house engineering associated with process equipment. Our engineering team can help provide solutions for every step of the way when designing and fabrication equipment packages.
Design software is used to preform calculations, simulations, and to produce shop fabrication drawings for shop and/or field use. Computer generated designs are used to review and construct equipment including piping and instrumentation designs, vessel fabrication drawings, and complete 3D models.
Heater Treaters are used to condition oil and are used as a secondary or sometimes primary oil treatment process to further separate water and gas from an oil stream. These units vary in design and can be used in low- or high operating pressure conditions. These skids have pneumatic and/or electric operated burner assembly and management system. These packages are designed to maintain specific temperatures and temperatures to achieve the best of results.
Heater Treaters are built to handle 2 or 3-phase separation of production streams with various methods of controls. Our horizontal heater treater design allows a smaller vessel design while allowing a higher retention rate for separation. Increased heater tubes allow for a larger surface area for fluid-to-heat contact.
Pipe racks are vital to the functioning of a variety of industrial plants and facilities. One very effective way to make projects more streamlined and flexible is to use a modular pipe rack. Conventional pipe racks must be built and welded on site to ensure measurements and connections are precise.
Our modular pipe racks arrive with precision connections already welded on, so that the entire project just needs to be assembled and locked into place – often with ease and relative speed.
Our pipe rack skids can be modified to accept multiple hook-ups allowing ease of construction when planning and staggering expansions. Single, Duals, or Quad pack skids can be designed to connect single or multiple process equipment.
Skid compressor packages that uses suction to intake low pressure gas and compresses gas to send to a higher-pressure pipeline. These compressor units are typically used to send low pressure volumes of gas to high pressure sales gas pipelines.
Vertical towers that operate at low pressure with long retention times to release gas from produced oil prior to entering oil storage. This gas is typically sent to a vapor recovery unit while oil is sent to storage.
Our Emissions Reduction Oil Stabilizer innovates and optimizes how pressure, temperature, pipe flow through equipment, and field operations work together. This is done while still maintaining a traditional operational system. Oil “shrink” is decreased, yielding increased oil in your tanks for you to sell. Overall pressures are reduced in the system, increasing your equipment’s lifespan, and worker safety on site. It nearly eliminates stack flare and can reduce CO2 emissions from flaring by 100% and can do so as quickly as 8 hours from implementation.
Oil Stabilization is a heat treatment of light gravity crudes (45+ API) used to remove the C5+ Hydrocarbon chains from the light ends. This “Stabilizes” the oil providing an oil product under a 12 or 9 RVP which prevents flash loss in storage and even in transport. Oil Stabilization occurs after crude treatment and upstream of storage (in the place of a Vapor recovery tower). This process can capture light end y-grade oil products that are normally lost and prevent sales docks from oil buyers requiring RVP under 12 or 9 rating.

Non-air-assisted and air-assisted flare stacks with air blower to ignite low and high-pressure gas. Single flare stacks and dual flare stacks are both fabricated containing air-assisted or non-air assisted. Different diameter of risers and height of flare stacks vary depending on gas volume and pressure of service.
Utility Flares are one of the most basic flare systems, designed for applications that don’t require smokeless burning or when smokeless flaring can be achieved without the use of additional assist mediums, such as auxiliary steam or air streams.
Air-assisted Flares are generally used to dispose of heavier waste gases, which have a greater tendency to smoke. They’re designed with two risers (air and waste gas) and a blower system. The blower system directs supplemental combustion air into the air riser. Upon mixing at the flare tip, the added air flow creates turbulence in the waste gas stream, improving mixing, and ultimately combustion efficiency.
Steam-assist Flares are designed to dispose of heavier hydrocarbon gases, which have a tendency to smoke. Using peripheral steam rings, center-stream spargers and/or inner induction tubes, they inject steam into the waste-gas stream, effectively preventing smoke formation.
Gas-assist Flares are also used to dispose of heavier waste gases, which have a greater tendency to smoke. Gas-assisted flares, however, are preferred in applications where electrical power is limited. They’re designed with two risers (waste gas and assist gas) and an assist-gas distribution ring at the tip that mixes combustion air with waste gas at the flare tip. The mixing creates increased turbulence in the waste gas stream.
