An offshore fabrication yard in Singapore needed a large compressor on a deck position, 40 m from open water. The specification was driven less by capacity than by the environment: salt-laden air, high ambient temperature, and no space for a plant room.
What was built
- 250 kW screw compressor inside a containerised enclosure with marine-grade paint system
- Oversized coolers and a high-ambient motor rating for 35 °C inlet air
- Remote monitoring so the yard control room can read pressure and running hours without going to the deck
Result
The unit runs as the yard air source with the enclosure doing double duty as weather protection and acoustic treatment for the neighbouring berth.
