Oil & Gas
ABEL Pumps can be used in many ways
To remove the residual moisture in natural gas, ethylene glycol must be injected in the gas drying system at high pressure. This process demands a pump with above-average reliability, long service life, and low residual pulsation. Our international customers who are known to maintain a high level of safety use ABEL triplex high pressure pumps from the HP and HPT series. In addition to quiet operation, this pump has an especially low residual pulsation, which is further reduced by optimally placed pulsation dampeners.
Performance is the key to pump crude oil. When there is not enough natural pressure from the gas left in the reservoir to pump the oil to the surface, the boreholes are filled with water. This conveys the remaining oil to the surface. ABEL Series HP and HPT pumps are ideal for this purpose because they can operate with some gassing of the product as well. Moreover, there is a mobile container solution, when you need to keep changing locations.
ABEL diaphragm pumps from the CM, HM and EM series are used to convey abrasive and combustible oil sludge and hydrocarbon mixtures (usually as explosion-proof models). At the largest refinery in Germany, a number of our electromechanical diaphragm pumps have been used successfully for years.

Advantages of ABEL Pumps
Mobile Use of High Pressure Pumps
The customer, a large Romanian oil and gas producer, was looking for a mobile concept that was easy to install. He was in need of a solution for
- transporting saline and lightly contaminated service water
- filling underground bore holes with water up to 1000 m deep for better transport of residual oil out of these subterranean bore holes.
Complete solution in a container
Abel announces its sturdy pumps with low residual pulsation, which are shipped as a complete package so that the customer does not have to deal with additional connections to or in the existing system. All customers need is a power connection and a connection to the suction and discharge side pipelines. Wiring between the electrical consumers and the control or the frequency converter is not required. This is all already installed inside the container. This makes the individual pumps as mobile as possible, so that they can be transported to any other location, connected, and operated there as desired.
A total of 16 Triplex high-pressure plunger pumps from the HPT series were shipped, mounted ready-to use in 12 containers including frequency converters and control cabinets. The wet ends of the pumps are made of stainless steel and the pump cylinders are forged in order to ensure high quality. The plunger packing is designed as a oil-lubricated packing box, as the water can contain contaminants. The suction side and discharge side valves of the pump are designed as so-called spherical cone valves.
