Bendel Tank & Heat Exchanger Congratulates Members of the Gulf Coast Petrochemical Group on EnergyVenture Camp!

Bendel Tank & Heat Exchanger would like to let you know about a wonderful summer camp for youth that is held every year in the Texas Gulf Coast region.  It’s called EnergyVenture, a summer camp for youth which is focused on the energy industry and the career opportunities it holds.

The camps are supported by members of the Gulf Coast Petrochemical Information Network (GC-PIN). Camps are held in community colleges in the Texas Gulf Coast region: Lee College (Baytown) and San Jacinto College (Pasadena and Houston).

“This is a scalable, sustainable program and can be replicated efficiently helping to fill the pipeline of future workers. Through a host of activities, the camp exposes students to the variety of career opportunities in the energy industry,” says Linda Drobnich, Senior Business Development Manager at San Jacinto College.

The program is designed for young people to learn while having fun. They perform lab experiments, win prizes for “best in class” team efforts, take a “behind the scenes” tour of an energy-related production facility and hear from guest speakers currently working in the field. The likelihood of these individuals staying in the Gulf Coast region to meet the future employment demands due to growth in the industry and retirement of current workers is greater if they know they have good employment choices in the region.

The concept for the camp came into fruition based on the State of Texas Industry Cluster Initiative Report and the East Harris County Manufacturing Association’s research. The study indicated there is a lack of awareness by young people of the good paying, high skill jobs that are available in the energy industry.

The program has a unique component for its participants. The EnergyVenture students aren’t attending camp just once – EnergyVenture’s goal is to bring them back in February for an annual reunion, and keep them moving forward in the program each winter until they’re ready to interview for a job in the energy industry. It’s not a one-time summer camp experience – the program is fostering students along a careerpath to the Gulf Coast’s energy industry.

Gold Level sponsor Shell along with other companies and foundations provide scholarships for students to attend the camp.  Visit here to learn how to register for EnergyVenture Summer Camp 2012.

Storage Tank Manufacturer Bendel Tank & Heat Exchanger Manufacturers Tanks for Resinall Corp. Hattiesburg, MS Project

Bendel Tank & Heat Exchanger has just completed the custom manufacturing of several storage tanks for a new manufacturing facility project for the Resinall Corporation in Hattiesburg, MS.

Resinall Corp. is entering a new product area by constructing a hydrogenated hydrocarbon resin unit at its Hattiesburg, MS manufacturing site. The new unit will produce low molecular weight, thermoplastic resins which exhibit broad elastomer and plastic compatibility. They are suitable for use as tackifiers in hot melt and pressure sensitive adhesives requiring very low color, exceptional thermal stability and low odor.

The facility will use a modular design to facilitate increases in capacity and keep pace with market growth and product demand. Phase I is targeted for completion and start-up in 2012 and will be capable of producing multiple resin grades. Products will be available in both solid and molten form.  Bendel is manufacturing the storage tanks for the project.

If you would like more information about our custom storage tank manufacturing process, please call Jim Rozsa rozsa@bendelcorp.com  or Vince Petrucci petrucci@bendelcorp.com at Bendel Tank & Heat Exchanger headquarters in Charlotte, NC at 866-596-5112.  Or if you are in TX, AR, LA or OK, please call our regional sales manager Fred Weissbach in Houston at 832-436-4626 or email weissbach@bendelcorp.com.  We look forward to serving your unique storage tank manufacturing requirements!

Storage Tank Manufacturer Jackets are Custom Fabricated per Client Specs

Bendel Tank & Heat Exchanger has manufactured storage tanks and storage tank jackets since 1962.  That is 49 years of storage tank manufacturing experience. 

Tank jackets are used to heat and cool the contents of a storage tank or pressure vessel.  That’s the simple definition of a tank jacket.  A jacket is a cavity external to the vessel that permits the uniform exchange of heat between the fluid circulating in it and the walls of the vessel.  Jacketed vessels can be employed as chemical reactors (to remove the elevated heat of reaction) or to reduce the viscosity of high viscous fluids (such as tar).  Agitation can be also used in jacketed vessels to improve the homogeneity of the fluid properties (such as temperature or concentration).

Dimple Jackets (sometimes called Plate Coils)

Internal Coils

Half-pipe Jackets

Bendel Tank & Heat Exchanger customizes all types of tank jackets for every unique need.  Please contact Bendel at 866-596-5112, or use our Contact Form here, or email us at sales@bendelcorp.com.  We look forward to serving your unique storage tank and pressure vessel jacket
requirements.
