Cabinda Gulf Oil Limited uses several all-convection heaters (Heatec Convectec heaters) at their oil wells in Angola. Five are used at this site. This refinery is typical of those using all-convection heaters.
The crude is piped directly from their production fields to the heaters. It flows through the heater's heat-exchanger coils, which are heated exclusively by convection gases to avoid high film temperatures. Heating lowers its viscosity so it can be distributed within the refinery.
