Certified Performance & Proven Engineering Excellence

For over five decades, Mech-Tool Engineering Ltd (MTE) has set the global benchmark in radiant heat shielding systems, delivering trusted solutions to both offshore and onshore industries worldwide.

MTE Flare Tower Platform Heat Shields performance data is extrapolated from our extensive heat shield testing program, this demonstrates the proven performance, reliability, and engineering integrity of MTE’s Flare Tower Platform heat shield systems in demanding operational environments.

High Temperature Flare Shield System

MTE’s high grade 310S stainless steel heat shield system is purpose built to withstand the extreme radiant temperatures generated during flaring.

This specialist system combines exceptional thermal resilience with long term offshore durability, ensuring reliable protection in one of the most demanding environments in the energy sector.

At the centre of the solution is an integrated stainless steel grating, designed to mount directly over the MTE heat shield panel. This configuration provides a safe and stable platform for flare tip maintenance, while simultaneously delivering high performance thermal protection during flaring events. The grating’s corrosion resistant construction ensures dependable service life, even under repeated thermal cycling and harsh offshore exposure.

Installation flexibility is delivered through MTE’s precision engineered fixing system, which allows panels to be installed in either vertical or horizontal orientations ahead of the flare boom’s final erection. This approach supports efficient yard based assembly while maintaining full safety compliance. The fixing system has been engineered for robust mechanical performance and is fully optimised for offshore operational conditions, providing secure, stable support for both the heat shield and working platform.
