✦ Synopsis

Multiphase pumping technology developed during the Poseidon research programme, and now commercially available f r o m Sulzer Pumps, is gaining widespread acceptance and recognition throughout the oil industry. Significant successes have been enjoyed with helico-axial multiphase pumps, having been deployed onshore and offshore in a variety of environments and climates such as the Middle East, South East Asia or in the North
