Time is of the essence in the oil and gas industry and is directly related to revenue, as the volume of demand for these natural resources is huge. Diaphragm pumps play an essential role in the extraction and distribution of materials in the oil and gas industry for many reasons. After the oil and gas resources are identified, they must be extracted in a timely and efficient manner. The use of diaphragm pumps in the oil and gas industry, in addition to increasing productivity and saving time, also greatly reduces operating costs. Some of the applications of these pumps include the transfer of petroleum materials, condensate, sewage, drilling mud, diesel fuel supply, anti-freeze circuit, etc. Is. In general, diaphragm pumps work with high speed and reliability, which make them profitable in these industries. If you need help in choosing the right diaphragm pump for transporting petroleum products and its derivatives, you can contact our experts in the sales department.
The best diaphragm pump for oil transfer
The important points that you should pay attention to when buying a suitable diaphragm pump in the oil and gas industry include durability, resistance to corrosion and the ability to work in harsh weather conditions. Oil is usually extracted from salty ocean waters and isolated places from land. Therefore, you need a pump that has good resistance in humid environments and unusual conditions such as wind and rain and long-term exposure to sunlight and high temperatures. Another challenge faced by pumps in the oil and gas industry, whether at sea or on land, is the debris they deal with. Diaphragm pumps of the oil and gas industry have the ability to transfer coarse and abrasive materials such as mud, sand, etc. For a better understanding, the following table shows All-Flo pumps that are suitable for transporting petroleum products.
