Two of the six API 610 VS4 pumps are pour point depressant pumps which are 18m in size and the opposite four are methanol carry pumps which are 10m lengthy.
All of the pumps have PT100 temperature sensors which have been designed and built alongside the length of the pumps to observe 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 throughout installation making certain that because the pump is lowered into the tank it remains perfectly aligned, reducing vibration and wear during operation.
Once assembled, the pumps have been independently witness examined and licensed 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 constructed.

Because of the length of the pumps, they had to be installed into the vessel’s tanks by way of the deck earlier than another deck above the pumps could be constructed. The first section was completed efficiently over the Christmas period with Amarinth’s Engineering Commissioning team supporting the client with the installation and commissioning.
The FPSO might be positioned in the KG-DWN 98/2 subject, approximately 22 km off the east coast of Kakinada, India. The vessel is designed to provide as much as 90 000 barrels of oil per day (BOPD) and have a 1.3-million-barrel storage facility. It might be equipped to deal with the monsoon circumstances prevalent on the subject.
