Tulsa, OK Industries We Serve

Applied Refractory supplies industrial equipment and refractory materials to facilities across every major sector of the Tulsa industrial market:

•       HF Sinclair Tulsa Refinery: HF Sinclair's Tulsa refinery processes 125,000 barrels per day of predominantly sweet crude oil with integrated base oil and lubricant production. The refinery produces base oils, specialty process oils, horticultural oils, asphalt modifiers, and wax. Process heaters, distillation columns, and fired equipment require ceramic fiber module systems and castable refractories for routine maintenance and turnaround cycles.

•       Midstream and Pipeline (ONEOK, Williams Companies): ONEOK and Williams Companies, both headquartered in Tulsa, operate gas processing plants, fractionators, and treating units throughout Oklahoma and beyond. Fired equipment in these facilities requires high temperature insulation and refractory lining materials for maintenance cycles across the mid-continent pipeline network.

•       Aerospace MRO and Manufacturing (American Airlines, Spirit AeroSystems): American Airlines' MRO base in Tulsa, the largest airline maintenance facility in the world and Spirit AeroSystems represent significant heat treating and specialty manufacturing demand. Industrial furnaces for aerospace component processing require ceramic fiber insulation systems for precise temperature control.

•       Industrial Manufacturing (AAON, Whirlpool): AAON (commercial HVAC equipment, headquartered in Tulsa since 1988) and Whirlpool (2,000+ employees) maintain large industrial operations requiring industrial ovens, heat treating equipment, and process furnaces with ceramic fiber insulation for energy-efficient operation.

•       Power Generation and Industrial Utilities: Oklahoma's mid-continent power generation infrastructure, including natural gas-fired power plants and industrial cogeneration systems in the Tulsa area, requires refractory linings and ceramic fiber insulation for combustion chambers, HRSGs, and boiler systems.
