At New Field, research and development is driven by a willingness to think differently and a determination to challenge conventional solutions. Our objective is to develop products that consistently deliver the highest standards of safety, efficiency, reliability and ease of operation, while remaining commercially practical.
Every development programme is guided by four core principles:
We work closely with research institutions, universities, EPC contractors, technology providers and end users who share our values and long-term vision. These partnerships enable us to exchange knowledge, explore new possibilities and build lasting relationships founded on technical excellence and mutual trust.
We are equally committed to collaborating directly with our clients to improve, refine and adapt our ejector vacuum systems and heat exchangers in response to evolving process demands and increasingly challenging operating conditions.
Our research and development capabilities combine advanced engineering software with practical experimental work to create robust, high-performance solutions. We use a range of leading design and analysis tools, including Ansys, Aspen, HTRI and SolidWorks, to evaluate, refine and optimise equipment performance.
Developments we have delivered include, but are not limited to:
Every design is evaluated using COMPRESS software to ensure that each new vacuum system or heat exchanger meets the safety requirements of the ASME Code. This assessment also takes into account nozzle loadings, seismic considerations and other site-specific conditions that may affect equipment stability and long-term performance.
Every exchanger design is independently reviewed and approved by a third-party inspector, who also provides oversight during fabrication and witnesses the ASME hydrostatic test for every exchanger. Where required, we also design and manufacture exchangers in accordance with API 660 and other relevant international standards.
Innovation at New Field extends beyond new product development. Our commercial, design, production and marketing teams continuously evaluate new applications for proven technologies, adapting existing products to meet the specific requirements of different industries, markets and operating environments.
To support this ongoing evolution, we actively collaborate with clients and industry partners, gathering insights that inform product enhancements and refinements. This feedback-driven approach enables us to respond quickly to changing demands while maintaining reliability, performance, and consistency across all applications.
At New Field, research and development is not simply about creating new solutions. It is about applying engineering intelligence, practical experience and technical rigour to deliver equipment that performs reliably in the real world — today and into the future.
This commitment to innovation has enabled New Field to design and manufacture heat exchangers for exceptionally severe operating environments. Our solutions have been developed to perform under high temperatures exceeding 600°C and pressures above 200 barg, while also resisting corrosion from aggressive process fluids and meeting complex chemical processing requirements.
