Welcome To The Heat Exchanger World Americas Conference & Expo 2025!
It is my great pleasure and honor, as the Chairman of the Heat Exchanger World Americas Conference and Expo 2025, to WELCOME YOU ALL with enthusiasm and excitement.
The Gulf Coast— Texas and Louisiana— are recognized as major players in the U. S. energy sector, with Houston serving as the energy capital of the world. Houston’ s vibrant economy and surrounding areas host a high concentration of major EPC companies, heat exchanger fabricators supporting leading Oil & Gas companies, refineries, petrochemical and chemical plants, midstream and pipeline operations, LNG export terminals, offshore production, and more.
This is the only conference devoted specifically to heat exchangers and related cleaning and maintenance industries. It provides a unique platform for individuals to connect, share knowledge and expertise, and learn about new and emerging technologies and products.
The conference includes expert panels and sessions with presentations, discussions, and workshops that highlight the most relevant topics in the heat exchanger industry. The Expo will showcase sponsors’ and manufacturers’ products, along with service providers, suppliers of raw materials, and tooling. You will also have the opportunity to enjoy interactive discussions with experts as you walk the floor.
I assure you that attending this conference will provide a unique opportunity to learn from exhibits featuring specialized heat exchanger technologies, troubleshoot equipment, and explore ways to increase operating efficiency. I look forward to meeting all of you at the conference over the next two days.
Sincerely,
Jack Piparia, Engineering Consultant retired Technip Energies
MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN
I am looking forward to being the Vice Chairman of the Heat Exchanger World Americas Conference & Expo 2025. This wonderful event provides endless opportunities to allow the heat transfer community to come together, partake in new ways of thinking through extensive knowledge transfer, learning of the latest innovations in heat transfer equipment, costsaving initiatives, practical solutions, and technical demonstrations. This event will serve as a stage for networking opportunities with some of the most talented individuals in this diverse industry.
Throughout my career, I have gained a wealth of knowledge and expertise in sealing, bolting, training, and technical support. My position at TEADIT in Pasadena, TX has allowed me to oversee its Commercial Team and Application Engineers here in North America. As one of the nation’ s leading SMEs in Bolted Flange Joints subject matter, I have authored and maintained standards for the assembly of boltedflanged connections and valve packing installations. During my career, I have had the opportunity to assist end users and OEMs in providing the necessary training to understand bolted flange joints, sealings and gaskets, which is necessary for understanding their connection to heat transfer equipment. Having the opportunity to educate and train is vital to ensuring your heat transfer equipment meets maximum performance; this way, users extend the life expectancy of their assets, improving processes and mitigating common challenges.
As we anticipate meeting one another this October, we invite you to join us at the NRG Center, with your ideas and topics focused on heat exchanger costs, design, performance, maintenance and efficiency in the oil and gas industry. I am confident that there is something for every professional from all levels of expertise at the Heat Exchanger World Americas Conference and Expo 2025. I am looking forward to seeing you all there!
Mark Ruffin, Vice President of Sales Teadit North America
