เกจวัดแรงดันปั๊มลมpuma has completed a US$1.5 million order from Armada Madura for six API 610 VS4 vertical pumps for a brand new FPSO being built for India’s Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Limited (ONGC).

Two of the six API 610 VS4 pumps are pour point depressant pumps which are 18m in length and the opposite 4 are methanol lift pumps which may be 10m lengthy.
All of the pumps have PT100 temperature sensors which have been designed and built alongside the length of the pumps to watch the temperature of each bearing individually.
The 18m long pumps incorporate a supporting system of brackets that Amarinth has designed which attaches each pump to its tank throughout installation guaranteeing that because the pump is lowered into the tank it remains perfectly aligned, reducing vibration and put on throughout operation.
Once assembled, the pumps were independently witness tested and certified by DNV at Amarinth’s facility in Rendlesham, UK. เกจ์อาร์กอนsumo had been then disassembled into 3m segments and shipped to Singapore where the FPSO (floating manufacturing storage and offloading unit) is being constructed.
The pump supply and set up needed to align with the FPSO build schedule. Because of the length of the pumps, they had to be installed into the vessel’s tanks via the deck before another deck above the pumps could possibly be constructed. The first part was accomplished efficiently over the Christmas period with Amarinth’s Engineering Commissioning staff supporting the customer with the installation and commissioning.
The FPSO shall be positioned within the KG-DWN 98/2 subject, roughly 22 km off the east coast of Kakinada, India. The vessel is designed to provide up to 90 000 barrels of oil per day (BOPD) and have a 1.3-million-barrel storage facility. It will be geared up to handle the monsoon conditions prevalent at the subject.
