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

Two of the six API 610 VS4 pumps are pour point depressant pumps that are 18m in size and the other 4 are methanol carry pumps that are 10m lengthy.
เกรดวัดแรงดัน of the pumps have PT100 temperature sensors which were designed and constructed alongside the length of the pumps to monitor the temperature of each bearing individually.
The 18m lengthy pumps incorporate a supporting system of brackets that Amarinth has designed which attaches every pump to its tank throughout set up ensuring that because the pump is lowered into the tank it remains perfectly aligned, reducing vibration and wear during operation.
Once assembled, เครื่องมือวัดความดันคือ have been independently witness examined and authorized by DNV at Amarinth’s facility in Rendlesham, UK. The pumps have been then disassembled into 3m segments and shipped to Singapore the place the FPSO (floating manufacturing storage and offloading unit) is being constructed.
The pump supply and set up had to align with the FPSO build schedule. Because of the size of the pumps, they had to be put in into the vessel’s tanks through the deck before one other deck above the pumps could presumably be constructed. The first part was completed successfully over the Christmas period with Amarinth’s Engineering Commissioning team supporting the customer with the set up and commissioning.
The FPSO shall be positioned within the KG-DWN 98/2 field, approximately 22 km off the east coast of Kakinada, India. The vessel is designed to produce up to 90 000 barrels of oil per day (BOPD) and have a 1.3-million-barrel storage facility. It will be equipped to deal with the monsoon conditions prevalent on the field.
