REDEFINES WHAT'S
POSSIBLE WITH ELECTRICAL
HEAT TRACE SYSTEMS
BY TIM RAUF
EHT GROUP LTD. is an organization with industry knowledge
going back over a decade, and a rapidly expanding client
base across North America. Launched in 2018, the company
specializes in every aspect of the electrical heat trace
systems used to push process through pipes. Co-founders
and brothers Conor and Cian Howitt each baked into EHT
Group over ten years of experience working with these systems.
This has resulted in an organization that not only understands
heat trace inside out, but could revolutionize the
entire process.
Both Cian and Conor hopped into the oil and gas industry
immediately after school. Within it, they performed electrical
heat tracing for Suncor, one of the largest oil and gas
producers in Canada. They spent over a decade building up
their heat trace mastery at various other organizations.
While providing a valuable service moving from site to site to
fix heat trace systems, they both wanted to take that impact
a step farther, and attack electrical heat trace problems on
a larger scale.
" We really wanted to say, 'Hey, what can we do to impact as
many facilities as possible?' That was one of our drivers really
for starting a company, " Cian says. " I think we both think
alike in that way, and we really wanted to use our experience
to have a widespread impact. "
The company has already started with this impact in a major
way, with their SmartTrace software solution. The software
monitors and manages the heat trace systems of client
facilities, by analyzing multiple datasets related to those
systems. From there all of the data is readily available for
human analysis and decision-making. As well, facility members
receive alarms for any pressing heat trace issues.
" What SmartTrace is really doing is tying into facilities' operational
data, into the heat trace controllers, and into other
systems, and then giving facilities a really clear view on the
health of their heat trace system, " Conor explains. The software
diagnoses this health by examining several elements:
process data, scheduling systems, and even weather data
gleaned from weather patterns crunched by machine learning
algorithms.
