Mumbai Port Trust

Mumbai Port Trust operates critical marine infrastructure where fire water systems are essential for safety. The existing pumps were outdated and inefficient, with poor service support and lack of spare parts availability.

Mumbai Port Trust operates critical marine infrastructure at Jawahar Dweep, handling large volumes of crude oil and petroleum products. Fire water systems play a vital role in ensuring safety and emergency preparedness in such high-risk environments.

The existing Voltas pumps were outdated, inefficient, and lacked spare part availability, posing risks to the reliability of the fire protection system. The port required a dependable and efficient solution to ensure continuous fire water availability.

Wilo was selected to provide a modern replacement solution capable of integrating with existing infrastructure while improving performance and reliability. The project also required careful handling of marine conditions, including exposure to seawater and corrosive environments.

Wilo supplied vertical turbine pumps designed specifically for fire water applications in marine environments. The pumps were engineered to deliver reliable performance under emergency conditions, ensuring immediate water availability.

The system required minor modifications to existing piping and foundation to accommodate the new pumps while maintaining compatibility with the overall infrastructure. The upgraded pumps provided improved hydraulic performance and ensured consistent operation.

The robust design enhanced durability in corrosive seawater conditions, while improved serviceability ensured easy maintenance and spare availability. This significantly increased system reliability and reduced operational risks. The solution strengthened fire safety infrastructure at the port and ensured long-term operational stability for critical emergency systems.
