Technical solutions
Gear pump selection for Alagoinhas starts with viscosity at the real pumping temperature — not the 40 °C catalog figure — the typical case of água. With that data, engineering defines speed (flow is proportional), bushing materials and the thermal arrangement: jacketed body for cold starts and a seal compatible with the hot fluid. Sitting in the technical context of a refino cluster, Alagoinhas benefits from accumulated learning around crude oil, derivatives, high temperature (up to 260°C in FBCN, 350°C in FBOT) and API 610 requirements met via engineered-to-order projects. In Alagoinhas, API 676 for positive displacement and — on critical services, via engineered-to-order projects — API 610 for centrifugal, the typical downstream Oil & Gas package are the applicable references — easing approval at commissioning and during technical audits. Lead time for critical parts to Alagoinhas is typically 96h to 7 days — a function of distance (1548 km) and the available road modal.
Why FB Bombas
Observed seasonal pattern: scheduled outages every 3-5 years (turnaround) — synchronized demand peaks across the supply chain. Alagoinhas follows the same rhythm as the nearby refino cluster. The economic fabric of Alagoinhas is diversified: services lead, but industry holds 31.3% of municipal value added (IBGE, 2021), over a 2023 GDP of R$ 5.7 billion — real demand for both process pumps and building utilities and sanitation. Demand in Alagoinhas is characterized by very high industrial concentration — territory for multi-customer technical-visit campaigns, a typical regional pattern of the mesoregion. Alagoinhas: belongs to the set of cities with relevant industrial scale in the state, a structural variable in the commercial offer. In Alagoinhas, engineered-to-order projects benefit from the FB combination: normalized baseline hydraulics + tailored customization (instrumentation, automation, special materials) with scope-defined lead time. In Alagoinhas, near a refino cluster, applications such as crude transfer, distillation-tower circulation, charge pumps for reactors and movement of derivatives make up the operational agenda — each backed by technical references in the FBE/FBCN/FBOT catalogues. In Alagoinhas, logística accounts for a large share of the pumping load — combining utility lines (water, steam, compressed air) with dedicated process circuits. For Alagoinhas, the FBFS line offers a complete fire-protection package: main pump, jockey, control panel NFPA 20 and diesel fuel tank — scope per NFPA 20. Alagoinhas, among the 50 most populous cities in BA, maintains a relevant industrial base, sustains a predictable B2B demand chain — an ideal profile for scheduled supply and multi-year replacement contracts.
Logistics & support
72h to 7 days, depending on modal and dry season: this is the typical delivery interval Cabreúva-SP → Alagoinhas, based on a consolidated road route and FB-qualified logistics operators. BR-116, BR-101 and BR-324 broaden FB's transport flexibility to Alagoinhas — useful in tight-window PM campaigns or for cargo whose gauge requires routes with specific bridges/curves. The service structure for Alagoinhas is sized as technical visits planned as a mission — concentrated agenda to cover multiple plants in a single trip, with escalation to additional visits in cases of commissioning, troubleshooting or complex retrofit. The BR-116 (via Fernão Dias BR-381 até MG) corridor (1548 km) is the logistics spine for FB deliveries to Alagoinhas — a factor entering FOB pricing and the commissioning lead-time curve. The factory-to-Alagoinhas dispatch includes technical packaging (impact protection, moisture sealing), multilingual documentation (PT/EN/ES when required) and approved-carrier tracking.
