2024.12.18
Tecton Oil & Gas Equipment Trading LLC orders 16 pumps including high pressure pumps for a seawater desalination plant in Saudi Arabia [Orders Received in June 2024]
Tecton Oil & Gas Equipment Trading LLC (Tecton Group) has placed an order for a total of eight SWRO high-pressure pumps and eight booster pumps for energy recovery devices (ERDs) for a desalination plant to be built as part of a shale gas extraction project.
The desalination plant has a desalination capacity of 80,000 m3 per day using reverse osmosis (RO), the leading method used in modern facilities. The water produced is slated for use in drilling, ground-forming hydraulic fracturing, oilfield fire prevention, heating installations, and power generation plants.
The plant is owned by Saudi Arabian Oil Company (Aramco), the state-owned oil company of Saudi Arabia. Construction and 20-year conservation and water sales contracts have been signed by the Future Technologies for Water Desalination Company. The pumps to be used in the plant must be highly efficient and reliable to reduce the long-term maintenance burden.
This is Torishima’s fourth desalination order from the Tecton Group, having previously received an order for RO seawater desalination pumps for the Tanajib project in 2022. In addition to desalination projects, the Tecton Group is also involved in a wide range of projects in the Middle East, particularly in the GCC countries, and they have placed many orders with Torishima in recent years, including main pumps for a water transmission plant for Transco in the UAE in 2023. These orders are the result of the relationship of trust that Torishima has built with the group over more than 15 years.
Construction of the plant is currently underway, with a projected completion date in 2025. Torishima will not only meet the need for high efficiency, reliability, and short delivery times for the pumps at the heart of the plant, but will also continue to provide optimum products and services and build further enhance the trust of our customers.
