The invention relates to an installation (1) for removing heat from a fluid flowing in a pipe, wherein the installation comprises at least one heat exchanger (2.1, 2.2, 2.3) which has direct contact with the fluid flowing in the pipe. The heat exchanger forms a vessel (5), which comprises a circulating heat transfer medium, and feed and discharge lines (8) for the heat transfer medium from and to a heat pump. The installation is characterized in that the design thereof is such that a heat exchanger surface formed by the same envelops an interior (3) of the pipe.
