Hexxcell Ltd. spun-off in 2013, acquiring technology developed at Imperial College London during a large-scale industrial research project, to deliver technology and services to industry in the area of advanced heat transfer and, in particular, crude oil fouling mitigation.
Ever since, we have developed our technology in large scale multidisciplinary R&D projects in collaboration with oil majors and validated extensively on their plants.We are now an independent private company based in Central London and a proud team of chemical, mechanical and process systems engineers with deep domain knowledge of heat transfer, mathematical modelling, artificial intelligence and a knack for data science.
True to our origins, we keep innovating everyday, pushing the boundaries of what industrial software can do.
