WATER INJECTION PUMP MOTOR

Operator:

Maersk Oil

Location:

Gryphon Alpha FPSO, North Sea

Products In Use:

Project:

Water injection pump motor

Challenges:

On the Gryphon Alpha, the water injection pump had been redundant for a few months. When needed to be re-instated, the DC motor was damp. They considered sending the motor back to the beach which would have taken several weeks and wasted thousands of pounds to re-build.

Solution:

The SA FLEXIHEAT ATEX Heater was used to dry out the motor in situ, so that it could be brought back into service quickly.

Feedback:

The heater saved them hundreds of thousands of pounds when they took in the cost of sea freight, downtime, repair, more sea freight and re-installation time plus the issue of managing without the pump. All in all it was a very cost effective solution.  The Heater was very simple to use and they will be using this unit for other applications around the vessel.
