Optimizing existing equipment is an essential function to keep plants running. This optimization can extend the useful life of existing assets, thereby lowering CAPEX and OPEX costs that are difficult to justify in volatile markets.

Since 2004, KPE has partnered with multiple refiners to provide engineering services to support maintenance, reliability, turnaround/outages, and small capital construction projects.

Our extensive experience with downstream process units allows for creative engineering designs that save customers money through cost-reduction by using existing assets or designing for optimization. KPE’s vast knowledge and depth of experience allows for a wholistic approach to operations, maintenance, safety, and environmental considerations.

This wholistic approach is what sets us apart from our competitors.

With safety at the forefront of our plant services, our team adheres to all site-specific, local safety guidelines while performing work. Our on-site team has a successful track record of optimizing existing process unit performance.

We are well-versed in early project development through detailed engineering and design. This includes the development of Construction Work Packages and assisting with implementation and installation in the field.
