Regulatory News:
Alfa Laval (STO:ALFA) – a world leader in heat transfer,
centrifugal separation and fluid handling – has won an order for
completely new and innovative separation modules. The order, booked
in the Energy & Process segment, has a value of approximately
SEK 85 million and delivery is scheduled for this year.
The Alfa Laval separation modules will be installed onboard an
FPSO (Floating Production, Storage and Offloading vessel) which
once completed, will be moored outside the Brazilian coast. The
modules will remove water and impurities from heavy crude oil. Due
to their innovative design it will be possible to reduce the water
content down to about one percent after separation, compared 10 to
20 percent using traditional methods – without excessive use of
heat and chemicals.
“This is an exciting new offshore installation for these
uniquely designed separation modules for heavy crude oil. The order
confirms our position as a reliable supplier of innovative products
to the oil and gas industry,” says Lars Renstr�m, President and CEO
of the Alfa Laval Group.
Did you know that… heavy crude oil has almost the same density
as water which makes it really difficult to separate and
purify?
