Adani Ports & Special Economic Zone Ltd

Adani Ports & Special Economic Zone Limited (APSEZ) operates Mundra Port, India’s largest commercial port in terms of cargo volume handled. Located on the western coast of India in Mundra, Gujarat, the port serves as a critical gateway for bulk cargo, containers, crude oil imports, and energy logistics. The port is designed to handle Very Large Crude Carriers (VLCCs) and plays a strategic role in supporting India’s oil, gas, and energy supply chain. Given the high-risk nature of oil handling, fuel storage, and marine operations, the port infrastructure demands high-capacity, highly reliable fire-fighting systems to safeguard personnel, assets, and critical operations. Fire protection at such facilities is mission-critical, requiring pumps capable of delivering large volumes of water at high heat with instant availability during emergency conditions.

Vertical turbine fire pumps are ideally suited for large port and oil & gas installations due to their ability to operate efficiently with deep sump arrangements, seawater intake, and high flow requirements. At Mundra Port, these pumps ensure uninterrupted water supply to hydrant networks, foam systems, and fire suppression lines across extensive port infrastructure.

The vertical turbine configuration allows installation in deep pits or intake structures, making them suitable for coastal and marine environments where water sources are located below ground level. Their robust hydraulic design delivers consistent pressure and flow even during prolonged emergency operation, which is essential for managing fire risks associated with crude oil tankers and fuel handling systems.
