Lobe Pumps

Introduction:
Lobe pumps are a type of positive displacement pump known for their reliability and efficiency in handling viscous fluids and solids. These pumps are widely used in the oil and gas industry due to their ability to maintain a steady flow rate, even under varying pressure conditions.

General Uses in Oil and Gas Field

Crude Oil Transfer: Efficiently handles the transfer of crude oil and other viscous fluids from one location to another.

Chemical Processing: Ideal for the precise dosing and transfer of chemicals in various stages of oil and gas processing.

Sludge and Slurry Handling: Effective in moving sludge and slurry, often encountered in drilling operations and waste management.

Glycol Circulation: Used in dehydration units to circulate glycol, ensuring the removal of water vapor from natural gas.

Cooling and Heating Systems: Employed in systems where high-viscosity fluids need to be circulated for temperature regulation.

Ranges and Specifications

  • Flow Rates: 5 to 10,000 GPM

  • Pressure Ratings: Up to 300 PSI

  • Temperature Range: -40°F to 350°F

  • Viscosity Range: 1 to 1,000,000 cSt

Material Construction

To ensure durability and reliability in harsh environments, lobe pumps are constructed using high-quality materials, including:

Stainless Steel: Offers excellent corrosion resistance, ideal for handling aggressive fluids and high-pressure conditions.

Cast Iron: For general-purpose applications, providing a good balance of strength and cost-effectiveness.

Hastelloy: Highly resistant to corrosion and high temperatures, suitable for extreme conditions.

Bronze: Used for specific applications requiring good resistance to saltwater and other corrosive fluids.

Teflon Coatings: Applied for enhanced chemical resistance in highly corrosive environments.
