The innovative technology
Fresh water is one of the main utilities required on board any offshore facility. Alfa Laval provides a range of solutions for converting seawater into fresh water. Alfa Laval equipment is designed for automatic operation with continuous control and monitoring of fresh water quality. Vacuum vapor compression plants are a simple, efficient method of producing a constant supply of high-quality fresh water for both drinking and process use. Using the vacuum distillation process, they convert seawater into fresh water using electricity, but with only minimal power consumption the process ensures fresh water with salinity levels below 2 ppm.
Making operating and servicing simple!
ORCA Offshore computer based training (CBT) is a digital online/offline training tool that introduce the ORCA system layout and provide an overall understanding of how to operate the fresh water generator. The training allows you to explore and operate a 3D computer-simulated ORCA Offshore.
