Custom Horizontal Pressure Vessel
Since 1935, BEPeterson has been a trusted leader in the design and fabrication of custom horizontal pressure vessels for a wide range of industrial applications. Every vessel we manufacture is engineered to meet the unique specifications of our clients, maximizing long-term reliability, efficiency and compliance with the most stringent standards.
With a legacy built on engineering expertise, fabrication precision and business integrity, BEPeterson provides solutions that streamline your production process — from concept through completion. Our ISO 9001:2015 certification, along with ASME, TUV, NSF and CRN approvals, underscores our commitment to delivering high-quality, compliant pressure vessels every time.
Horizontal Pressure Vessel Design
At BEPeterson, horizontal pressure vessel design is more than just fabrication — it’s a collaborative engineering process. Each vessel begins with a thorough understanding of your application requirements, operating environment and pressure demands.
Our team of experienced engineers evaluates factors such as design pressure, working pressure, material selection, corrosion allowance and internal configuration to enhance your system’s integrity and performance.
We specialize in:
- ASME Section VIII, Division 1 and 2 pressure vessels.
- Carbon steel, stainless steel and specialty alloy construction.
- Custom nozzle layouts, support and internals.
- Skid-mounted or integrated systems.
Our commitment to quality is backed by comprehensive testing, inspection and documentation at every production stage. Each design of horizontal pressure vessel is pressure-tested and visually inspected before delivery, ensuring adherence to design pressure, MAWP and customer-specific requirements.
Horizontal Pressure Vessel Engineering
Each BEPeterson project is assigned a dedicated project engineer who serves as your technical liaison throughout the fabrication process. This facilitates open communication, responsive services and a fully documented design and build process from start to finish.
Our engineers leverage decades of experience in finite element analysis (FEA), welding technologies and quality assurance to optimize vessel performance while maintaining cost efficiency. We ask the right technical questions upfront, helping you avoid costly redesigns, delays or compliance issues down the line.
