Flowserve Receives Multi-million Dollar Order for Vertical Pumps Package for Seawater Desalination Plant in California
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
DALLAS, November 13, 2013 - Flowserve Corporation (NYSE: FLS), a leading
provider of flow control products and services for the global infrastructure
markets, today announced it has received a multi-million dollar order from IDE
Technologies to supply pumping systems for the seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO)
desalination plant located in Carlsbad, Calif. This order was booked in the
third quarter of 2013.
Israel-based IDE was selected to design and subsequently operate the 189,250
cubic meters/day (50 million gallons/day) Carlsbad desalination plant for 30
years. With an expected completion date during the fourth quarter of 2015, this
SWRO plant is projected to be the largest desalination plant in North America.
IDE Technologies purchased three large Flowserve vertical seawater intake pumps
constructed in super duplex stainless steel to supply the highly corrosive raw
seawater to the plant. Additionally, eight large vertical, double suction, twin
volute pumps constructed in 316L stainless steel were specified and purchased to
transfer the potable water from the SWRO plant into the San Diego County Water
Authority distribution system.
"We are pleased that IDE Technologies continues to work with Flowserve on
projects of this importance and magnitude," said Jim Quain, president, Flowserve
Sales Organization. "As a global leader in the growing desalination industry,
Flowserve pumps provide an established track record for efficiency and
reliability. Because IDE will operate the SWRO plant for the next 30 years,
proven reliability was a key factor in the award of this contract."
