Sulzer introduces heating jacket for thermal maintenance of CPE pumps

Global pump OEM Sulzer has won an order to supply multiple water injection packages to Seatrium for Petrobras’ next generation P-84 and P-85 Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) vessels. The project was awarded to Sulzer due to its track record of providing industry-leading pumps for the most challenging offshore oil and gas operations globally. For both vessels, Sulzer has met the strict acceptance criteria and application requirements of the end user.

Extreme heat is pushing cooling demand to new highs, prompting countries to increasingly rely on fossil fuel-based power sources to keep the grids stable and flexible.

The trusted EMW series of heavy-duty slurry pumps has been expanded with the introduction of two new, bigger sizes, significantly increasing the performance range of the product family.

Sulzer has signed an agreement with Highview Power to deliver eight molten salt pumps, five cryopumps and a selection of auxiliary services. The deal represents an engineering-led collaboration that will help unlock long-duration energy storage at Highview Power’s new facility at Carrington, Manchester, and at other future facilities across the UK. The Carrington project will be the first to deliver commercial-scale liquid air energy storage in the UK.

A first-of-its-kind event, organised by the Association of Electrical and Mechanical Trades (AEMT) in close collaboration with Sulzer, was held at Sulzer’s Birmingham facility and brought together apprentices from across the electromechanical sector for an inspiring day of networking, learning, and hands-on team building.

Sulzer’s new facilities will support essential industries in the region, such as oil and gas, pulp and paper, power generation and food and beverage. The expansion underlines Sulzer’s global strategy of establishing full-service, in-region capabilities to meet the needs of its industrial customers.
