Two of the six API 610 VS4 pumps are pour level depressant pumps which may be 18m in size and the opposite four are methanol raise pumps which are 10m lengthy.
All of the pumps have PT100 temperature sensors which were designed and constructed along the size of the pumps to monitor the temperature of every bearing individually.
The 18m lengthy pumps incorporate a supporting system of brackets that Amarinth has designed which attaches each pump to its tank during set up guaranteeing that because the pump is lowered into the tank it remains completely aligned, lowering vibration and wear during operation.
Once assembled, the pumps have been independently witness tested and certified by DNV at Amarinth’s facility in Rendlesham, UK. The pumps had been then disassembled into 3m segments and shipped to Singapore where the FPSO (floating production storage and offloading unit) is being built.
The pump delivery and installation had to align with the FPSO construct schedule. Because of the length of the pumps, they needed to be installed into the vessel’s tanks by way of the deck before one other deck above the pumps could possibly be constructed. The first phase was completed successfully over the Christmas period with Amarinth’s Engineering Commissioning staff supporting the shopper with the installation and commissioning.
The FPSO might be positioned in the KG-DWN 98/2 area, approximately 22 km off the east coast of Kakinada, India. The vessel is designed to produce as a lot as 90 000 barrels of oil per day (BOPD) and have a 1.3-million-barrel storage facility. ราคาเกจวัดแรงดันลม will be outfitted to deal with the monsoon conditions prevalent at the field.
