The 1000 m3/h installation of DESMI Ocean Guards CompactClean system was conducted in Chengxi Shipyard on the vessel Providana owned by Masterbulk Pte Ltd. The installation was a full integration of the system, which included:
- A full 1000 m3/h CompactClean ballast water management system
- An additional valve package and control system
- Frequency converters on the ballast water pumps
- Deck office operative system
- Internet uplink system
Kevin Leach-Smith, Vice President, Operations, Masterbulk Pte Ltd:
“We chose DESMI’s CompactClean system because of the very small footprint and our trust in DESMI as a well-established supplier of marine equipment. An installation like this is a large project and requires good cooperation between the owner, technical manager, shipyard and system-supplier. All parties did a professional job in making this BWMS installation a smooth and efficient process.”
