Line Special Solutions

A motor-pump assembly combines a pump and drive on a baseplate. A skid integrates components specified for the process, such as piping, instruments and controls. A mobile unit uses a wheeled base for operation at different locations. The format depends on the installation and required supply.

In this range, retrofit means supplying a new FB pump for an existing installation. The assessment considers the duty point and interfaces. Keeping the baseplate and piping depends on dimensional verification; it is not automatic.

Yes. FB builds mobile units on a cart, with a diesel or electric motor, for emergency use, dewatering, temporary transfer and field work. The unit combines the pump (usually FBCN or FBE, depending on the application), the drive, the wheeled base and, where specified, the starter panel. Application engineering validates the configuration case by case.

Yes, when specified. A skid can combine duty and standby pumps, an electric or diesel motor, a welded structural base, piping, valves, pressure gauges, pressure and temperature sensors, a control panel and direct-on-line, soft-starter or VFD starting. Pre-alignment, hydrostatic testing and performance-curve measurement before shipping are part of the inspection and test plan agreed in the proposal.

The enquiry brings together fluid composition and concentration, temperature, pressure and solids content when known. Engineering assesses materials and configuration for those conditions. The proposal should identify the agreed requirements and documents.

Yes. A special project goes through 3D CAD modeling and, when applicable, CFD simulation to assess hydraulic performance under the operating conditions. Simulation reduces technical risk before manufacturing; final validation is the bench test set out in the inspection and test plan.

Send the project specification and acceptance criteria. Standards, tests, inspections and documentation are assessed according to the pump and requested scope. A standard cited for a special project does not automatically apply to every series.

Through the inspection and test plan agreed in the proposal. It can include the performance test on the factory bench (for centrifugal pumps, per ANSI/HI 14.6), the hydrostatic test at the pressure of the standard or the base-series manual, the dimensional check, a certified curve, FAT and witnessed testing. State in your enquiry the tests and documents your project requires.

Yes. Application engineering prepares the design memorandum, bill of quantities, performance curves and hydrostatic test report as the tender requires. The Petrobras CRC (formerly CRCC) is Petrobras supplier registration, not a general tender requirement; registration status is stated in the proposal when the tender requires it.

Start with the information you already have. You can enquire without every technical detail; the team will guide the next steps.

Share the solution format and known requirements. Configuration, availability, documentation and lead time are established during assessment and quotation.
