เกจวัดแรงดันลม equipped the unique pumps to ADNOC in 2016 for sodium hypochlorite dosing duties on the Umm Lulu offshore platform situated in the Arabian Gulf, 30km north-west of Abu Dhabi, UAE. Because sodium hypochlorite is highly corrosive, Amarinth initially used titanium alloy for all wetted components.
During a routine capital evaluation, ADNOC decided the pumps were due for refurbishment. The sodium hypochlorite dosing pumps are critical to production and refurbishment had to align precisely with a particular shutdown schedule.
The shutdown schedule wouldn’t enable the pumps to be returned to the UK for a full strip, evaluation and refurbishment, so Amarinth used its UAE facility to undertake the work.
Amarinth’s UAE facility was in a position to full the strip and evaluation report within 5 working days and propose two refurbishment initiatives. The first concerned a full rebuild, check and warranty of the first pump changing all the titanium parts including impeller, shaft, bearing brackets and mechanical seals. The work needed to be accomplished in simply eight weeks. Amarinth prioritised the ordering of the titanium components and was capable of have the components manufactured and shipped to the UAE to align with the rebuild schedule. pressure gauge หน้าปัด 4 นิ้ว undertook the identical work on the opposite two backup pumps to be completed on a 24-week schedule.
Oliver Brigginshaw, managing director of Amarinth, stated: “Having equipped the unique pumps to ADNOC we have a wealth of experience in working with titanium components. We are also pleased with the expansion of our native UAE facility for service and help and which enabled us to efficiently expediate this particular refurbishment, benefiting both ADNOC and the native economic system.”
