Amarinth, designer and manufacturer of low lifecycle cost centrifugal pumps and associated equipment, has secured a US$200,000 order from Azku Global Services for API 610 OH1 pumps destined for the Iraqi Ministry of Oil operated Majnoon Oil Field
This is Amarinth’s first order from Azku Global Services and comes off the back of numerous projects that Amarinth has successfully delivered into Iraq. The US$200,000 order is for two API 610 12th edition OH1 pumps which are destined for Majnoon Oil Field operated by the Iraqi Ministry of Oil. The Majnoon Oil Field is a super-giant oil field located 60km from Basra in southern Iraq and is one of the richest oil fields in the world, with an estimated 38bn bbl of oil in place.
The API 610 12th edition OH1 pumps are for condensate transfer duties and include the latest API 682 4th edition Plan 53B seal support systems, along with Amarinth mobile top-up units. Specified for ATEX Zone 1 use, the pumps are required on a demanding 30-week delivery. On completion, they will be inspected and witness tested by Bureau Veritas, and supplied with a full legalised Iraq documentation package.
Oliver Brigginshaw, managing director of Amarinth, commented, “We are delighted to receive this first order Azku Global Services which further strengthens our reputation in Iraq for successfully delivering robust and reliable pumping solutions on short lead times for its expanding oil and gas infrastructure. Our ability to meet these aggressive delivery deadlines is assisted by the in-depth knowledge we developed across our organisation of the documentation and legislative processes required to supply pumps to Iraq.”
The order follows hot on the heels of an order from Iraq Gates Contracting Company (IGCC) for two bespoke API 610 12th Edition VS4 vertical pumps for the Rumaila oilfield, Iraq, in February.
