China's first independent research and development - Wuhan ship hydraulic submersible pump system passed the acceptance
November 09, 2023
Recently, Wuhan Marine Machinery Co., Ltd. successfully developed a 1000m3/h hydraulic submersible pump system and successfully passed the acceptance of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. The project was designed and manufactured for the first time and was also the first independent research and development in China. According to the news, the submersible pump system is a device for transporting liquid cargo in the cargo tank to the outside, and is mainly applied to liquid cargo ships such as FPSO, product oil tankers and chemical tankers. The 1000m3/h submersible pump is a system prototype development and real ship verification project carried out by Wuhan Ship Machinery Co., Ltd. based on the high-tech ship scientific research project of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, “Technical Research on Large Displacement Submersible Pump System”.
At present, the domestic tanker and FPSO submersible pump system are monopolized by a few foreign companies. This equipment has become the bottleneck for China's ship and sea engineering equipment industry to achieve high-end support. The successful development of the 1000m3/h submersible pump system of Wuhan Shipbuilding broke the long-term monopoly of foreign manufacturers, filled the domestic gap, and laid a solid foundation for the realization of China's ship and sea engineering equipment.
