Amarinth delivers 18m-long pumps for new Indian FPSO

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

Two of the six API 610 VS4 pumps are pour level depressant pumps which may be 18m in size and the opposite 4 are methanol raise pumps which may be 10m long.
All of the pumps have PT100 temperature sensors which were designed and built along the size of the pumps to watch the temperature of every bearing individually.
The 18m lengthy pumps incorporate a supporting system of brackets that Amarinth has designed which attaches every pump to its tank during installation making certain that because the pump is lowered into the tank it remains perfectly aligned, decreasing vibration and wear during operation.
Once assembled, pressure gauge nuova fima ราคา were independently witness examined and authorized by DNV at Amarinth’s facility in Rendlesham, UK. The pumps were then disassembled into 3m segments and shipped to Singapore the place the FPSO (floating production storage and offloading unit) is being constructed.
The pump delivery and set up had to align with the FPSO build schedule. Because of the length of the pumps, they needed to be put in into the vessel’s tanks via the deck before another deck above the pumps could be built. The first section was completed efficiently over the Christmas period with Amarinth’s Engineering Commissioning team supporting the client with the set up and commissioning.
The FPSO will be positioned in the KG-DWN 98/2 field, approximately 22 km off the east coast of Kakinada, India. The vessel is designed to produce up to ninety 000 barrels of oil per day (BOPD) and have a 1.3-million-barrel storage facility. It might be equipped to handle the monsoon situations prevalent on the field.
