BW PIONEER, CHINOOK & CASCADE PROJECT
Parat Halvorsen was awarded the prestigious contract of delivering the complete
Heating Medium System for the M90 Power Module onboard the latest BWO FPSO, BW
PIONEER currently in its final stages of conversion at Keppel Yards in Singapore.
In short the Heating Medium System consists of 3pcs 15MW WHRU boilers supplied by
Thermax India and one 8MW backup heater supplied by Parat Halvorsen AS along with
a hotwater distribution system, also supplied by Parat. Parat was given responsibility
for the overall function of the system along with the production and supply of the skid
containing the main circulation pumps, OIW Observation tank and a complete 8MW
High Voltage Electrode boiler system.
The skid containing the backup boiler system and complete circulation and fluid
observation equipment was shipped from our factory in Flekkefjord in the end of
January. Due to engine problems on the freighter, the package arrived in Singapore
quite a few weeks later than originally planned and caused some challenges with the
timing at the module workshop, Dyna Mac Engineering Ltd.
Parat Halvorsen sent two representatives to Keppel in the beginning of May to
ensure that all remaining items were taken sufficiently care of and to supervise some
mechanical installation work.
The system is scheduled for comissioning in July-August 2009.
The Heating Medium Skid with the new 8MW Marine type High Voltage Electrode boiler
arrived at DynaMac Engineering on April 17th. 2009. It was installed on the M90
Power module (structure shown on the lefthand side) in record time before the entire
module was lifted onboard the BW PIONEER at Keppel Yards.
