Two of the six API 610 VS4 pumps are pour point depressant pumps which might be 18m in size and the opposite 4 are methanol lift pumps which are 10m lengthy.
All of the pumps have PT100 temperature sensors which were 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 during installation making certain that because the pump is lowered into the tank it remains perfectly aligned, lowering vibration and wear during operation.
Once assembled, the pumps had been independently witness tested and authorized by DNV at Amarinth’s facility in Rendlesham, UK. The pumps had been then disassembled into 3m segments and shipped to Singapore the place the FPSO (floating production storage and offloading unit) is being built.
The pump supply and set up had to align with the FPSO build schedule. Because of ร้านซ่อมเครื่องวัดความดันโลหิต of the pumps, they had to be installed into the vessel’s tanks via the deck earlier than another deck above the pumps could be constructed. The first phase was accomplished efficiently over the Christmas period with Amarinth’s Engineering Commissioning team supporting the shopper with the set up and commissioning.
The FPSO will be positioned in the KG-DWN 98/2 area, approximately 22 km off the east coast of Kakinada, India. The vessel is designed to supply up to 90 000 barrels of oil per day (BOPD) and have a 1.3-million-barrel storage facility. It shall be equipped to handle the monsoon situations prevalent on the area.
