1 COMPANY OVERVIEW The strongest thing we build is your trust.

2 U tube exchanger 2-way horizontal CNC drill press An ironclad culture of quality In 1927 Joe Mitternight opened a boiler repair shop on the Mobile riverfront. It was dedicated to simple values like customer satisfaction and quality production. Over the years, Mitternight, Inc. has evolved into a modern world class production facility manufacturing ASME Code vessels. These include heat exchangers, chemical reactors, distillation columns and other pressure vessels for Fortune 500 customers around the world. Today, we successfully handle a far-reaching range of projects from small, intricate work, to jobs that are among the most ambitious and demanding in the industry. But we have never lost sight of our founding principles. Consistency you can count on We deliver quality products on time. That is the essence of Mitternight, and it translates into value for our customers. Eighty-five percent of our business comes from companies who have placed orders with us before. Our consistency and value keeps bringing these customers back. At Mitternight, you will find well-trained, highly-experienced people who care about their work. You will also find a production process built around high technology, meticulous monitoring and continuous improvement. A strategic partnership All of our departments coordinate efforts to meet the common goal: the goal of getting your vessel back to you when promised, within budget and to your specifications. From estimating through final inspections, our people are dedicated to this purpose. We think the process of fabricating a vessel for you, our customer, is a collaborative process and all of our organizational energy is focused on keeping you informed about the status of your vessel. Mitternight offers unparalleled service and project management in our field. We employ top professional estimators with years of experience. You will also find that our project management is with you every step of the way. Our purchasing department is always shopping for the best in quality, timeliness and price in that order to provide clean, concise and accurate bids. Every day we take on new tests and challenges at Mitternight. Our customers trust us to build an unlimited variety of shapes, sizes and configurations with a wide degree of difficulty and complexity. We welcome each challenge presented to us. We welcome yours, too. 25-gallon alloy jacketed reactor Internal parts-agitator autoclave Large exchanger shipped by air to Middle East

3 HEAT EXCHANGERS We make the complex commonplace.

Shell and tube heat exchangers are among our product specialties. We drill tube sheets with computer-controlled horizontal drilling machinery for maximum precision. Typically tube sheets receive ultrasonic examination prior to drilling to spot any lamination and avoid costly delays. An integral part of the manufacture of heat exchangers is the tube rolling operation. Our automatic torque control tube rolling equipment guarantees that tubes will be rolled in uniform, efficient manner. Unit being loaded for ocean transit to Middle East A culture of craftsmanship At Mitternight, where complex projects are commonplace, training, experience and low turnover are very important. The company has an excellent record of retaining people for many years. Our continuing commitment to training helps new workers reach a high level of skill as we team them with our most experienced mechanics. Many jobs, by their very nature, require a high degree of skill. It takes a company like Mitternight to handle projects of such complexity.

5 PRESSURE VESSELS We do our best work under pressure.

6 Insulated and fireproofed column Overlaying nozzle on explosive bond clad head We know pressure Creating pressure vessels is an exacting science. It is a precise blend of engineering, materials, craftsmanship and quality control. Pressure vessels are at the core of the Mitternight expertise. We got our start over 80 years ago repairing boilers, and have grown to become a leading international specialist in manufacturing secure, reliable ASME Code vessels of every size, material and finish. Materials to build the best We see a variety of materials in the opportunities offered to us. We work in all of the high nickel alloys including C2000, C22, C276, AL6XN, Alloy 20, 600, 625, 800, 825 and all of the duplex stainless steels as well as conventional stainless Fully ultrasonic tested vessel which will replace equipment built in 1946 steel. We manufacture equipment in carbon steel, chrome moly steel and low temperature steel. Our sub-vendors perform heat treating at our plant or at their facility. Mitternight also provides explosion or roll bonded clad materials through our sub-vendors to produce an economical pressure containment envelope and corrosion-resistant lining. We perform corrosion resistant overlay in-house. Each of these methods has its advantage. We stand ready to assist you in determining the most appropriate methods for your needs. Quality is a process, not an inspection Quality cannot be inspected into the equipment at the end of fabrication. Quality must be an integral part of the team as the equipment progresses. Our quality staff participates from day one moving towards a finished product that meets both customer specifications and the ASME Code.

7 QUALITY CONTROL MANAGEMENT The quality is in the details.

8 Grid layout for ultrasonic testing Liquid penetrant testing Angle beam ultrasonic testing of nozzle penetration We keep world-class standards Mitternight provides products and services which fully meet the design and fabrication requirements of ASME Code Section VIII Div. I, TEMA and NBIC R. We also hold the Requirements for Boiler and Pressure Vessel Manufacturing License for the People s Republic of China, Pressure Vessels. Check and recheck Mitternight s Quality Control department ensures that all products we fabricate and ship are built with the highest possible quality. We have onsite capabilities as well as written procedures and qualified personnel for the following non-destructive testing: Radiography (iridium 192) Ultrasonic Testing Magnetic Particle (both conventional & wet fluorescent) Liquid Penetrant Testing Hydrostatic Testing Pneumatic Testing Positive Material Identification (Arcmet 8000) Helium Testing Hardness Testing Ferrite Testing Ferroxyl Testing Good people. Good communication. Project management, quality control and supervision are elements that are vital in the fabrication process. Each job is unique; it must first have the devoted attention of our project management and scheduling group to provide our plant with a well defined quality strategy and scope of work. Our engineers and designers maintain a close liaison with fabrication and the quality control department. This helps assure that the customer specifications are understood and followed. Superior quality calls for superior planning Planning is an important part of the fabrication process; the better we plan, the better a project will run. Once the Plant Manager receives drawings and specifications he analyzes them with his leadermen to confirm or improve our fabrication strategy. At the same time, our Quality Manager sets up quality steps to be met during the process. Our fabricators and welders have built products of every size and shape, and are committed to meeting our client s rigorous requirements on time and with uncompromising quality. Ferroxyl testing P.O.
