Metal Clad applies technology used for oilfield
steam systems to geothermal power plants. While
some change was necessary to accommodate the
larger steam pipe diameters and the requirement
that exteriors of geothermal pipes, most of
which are in wilderness areas, blend into the
surrounding countryside; SMCs experienced work
crews had little problem adapting proven
oilfield insulation materials and installation
processes to the geothermal energy industry.

The same
increased efficiency and cost savings realized
by the oil production and food processing
industries after they insulated their fluid and
gas transfer systems are now available to
geothermal energy producers. Plant operators
which select SMC as their insulation suppler,
enjoy a number of benefits such as: competitive
pricing, comprehensive safety program, quick
response times, crews available 24/7 and rapid
completion of projects. |
