Offshore Platforms

In offshore applications, industry experts are hearing a clear message: it’s all about size and weight. Specifically, companies that operate offshore platforms are looking for smaller and lighter packages, a trend that has forced OEMs and compressor packages to scale down their equipment.

Problem: A long straight pipe run for meters & pumps is not always possible, particularly so in existing or compact piping systems. The use of a CRV® eliminates the need for long pipe-runs, large space requirements and provides steady, uniform flow eliminating the locally high velocity induced cavitation, turbulence & shed vortices, which produce damaging vibration & wear to pipes, seals, bearings & pumps.

CRV® Solution: will prevent problems from occurring in the first place. The benefits are lower head loss, elimination of cavitation, improved pumping efficiency, reduced pipe run with improved flow meter accuracy, lower maintenance requirements, ease of retrofit, lower overall operating costs, increased process equipment throughput and yield.

“Currently, we are fabricating a few topsides (for satellite platforms) for oil & gas production. Fabrication work is still on progress but we foresee 2 Crude Oil Transfer Pumps will encounter severe premature damage when put to operation. Due to space constrain a long radius elbow is directly mounted (vertically) on a double suction impeller pump. This pump is designed with a vertical suction nozzle orientation. With this arrangement, the pump will be subjected to premature damage due to uneven flow entering the pump and to prevent this from happening we are interested to explore your product.” –2013 from EPCC, Installed two 6 inch CRV®s.
