Industrial pumps are essential devices required in every phase of oil and gas operations. Basically, they help transfer process fluids from one point to another.
In oil and gas operations, process fluids can range from easy to difficult. Depending on the nature of the substance you want to transfer and your required flow rate, you’ll need a suitable pump for your needs.
Various types of industrial pumps are utilized for fluid transfer in the oil and gas industry. Pumps used in O&G can be classified based on their design and construction and generally fall into 6 major categories: Centrifugal pumps, Reciprocating plunger pumps, Progressive Cavity pumps, Gear Pumps, Diaphragm pumps, and Metering pumps.
