The fresh water generators will convert sea water into fresh water to be used for process water and potable water onboard the platforms. The purifiers will control the quality of the diesel oil being used mainly for power generation, thereby optimizing uptime.
“Reliable equipment, both compact and efficient, is essential to maximize uptime on these offshore oil platforms, and these recent orders from the oil and gas industry once again prove our ability to meet the high demands”, says Lars Renström, President and CEO of the Alfa Laval Group. Alfa Laval is a world leader in heat transfer, centrifugal separation and fluid handling.
