✦ Synopsis
Amarinth moves into Malaysian pump market
C entrifugal pump manufacturer
Amarinth has secured Petronas approved vendor status and signed Geveke Oil & Gas Malaysia Sdn Bhd as its agent for Malaysia.
Amarinth worked closely with the company to achieve the Petronas approval and has now appointed Geveke Oil & Gas Malaysia as its agent for Malaysia.
Amarinth and Netherlands-based Geveke have a long history of working together on major projects in other parts of the world and both companies identified Malaysia as a significant opportunity for oil and gas projects and so it was a natural step to work together on the Petronas Licencing and Registration process.
Together, the companies will now provide the EPC contractors in the region with centrifugal horizontal and vertical API 610 pumps. Amarinth has a strong track record of providing pumps for offshore and onshore oil and gas contracts where quick leadtimes are required and there are space restrictions resulting in the need for pumps that can operate with low Net Positive Suction Head (NPSH), such as those found on Floating Production Storage & Offloading (FPSO) vessels. Amarinth has also developed innovative solutions for low shear requirements such as pumping oil suspended in water into filtration systems. The Petronas approval now enables Amarinth to do business with the EPC contractors and their supply chain within Malaysia.
Amarinth managing director Oliver Brigginshaw said: "We have been looking to move into the Malaysian market for some time as our range of API pumps are well proven within the oil and gas industry in many other parts of the world, and in many cases are the first choice of pumps amongst EPC contractors and package providers. Gaining Petronas approved vendor status along with signing Geveke Oil & Gas Malaysia as our agent will enable us to gain a strong foothold in a number of projects within the region. On approval we immediately received a number of good quality enquiries that we are now following up."
