Applications
  • FPSO
    Floating production, storage, and offloading (FPSO) is very demanding. Our pumps work reliably in applications like water injection, seawater lift, firewater, and offloading. Our experience also includes column and separator internals, as well as services for compressors, turbines, motors, and pumps.

  • Hydraulic power recovery turbine
    Many industries aim to reduce their ecological footprint by minimizing energy consumption. Sulzer Hydraulic Power Recovery Reaction Turbines can be used to capture lost energy.
