Water injection cartridge

Water injection involves injecting seawater into oil wells to maintain or increase production. Pumps performing this function are therefore vital to the operator.

Using the finest materials and ensuring high performance, water injection pumps require constant attention to driving, maintenance and assembly.

This work was carried out within 6 months, from the customer's request to the finished product.

By reverse engineering, the pump, a BB5 model with a flow rate of more than 300m3/h and a discharge pressure of more than 280 bar, was completely scanned in 3D and modelled on CAD. CFD analysis was conducted to verify and ensure that performance was met. After more than 3 000 kg of machining, inspection and assembly, the material is then preserved and packaged in a pressurized container under nitrogen
