The RHM system provided lubrication, cooling and filtration to the rotating groups of 400gpm, 750psi pumps sending well-produced fluids 21kms from the desert production facility to a remote de-gassing station.
The totally redundant system included two 18gpm vertical pumps, dual air to oil heat exchangers each with dual fan motors and a stainless steel accumulator for pump changeover. The dual ASME air to oil heat exchangers incorporated 4 x 100% capabilities to ensure quadruple redundancy. Electrical devices and wiring conform to ATEX/IEC Zone 2 specifications. All piping and fabricated materials are 316 stainless steel which had to be completely sandblasted and specially coated and painted for to withstand the outdoor desert environment.
