Allweiler wins Finnish lubricant oil contract

Allweiler AG's pump skid business will deliver the entire lubrication-oil module for Finland 's Olkiluoto 3, the world's largest power plant.

The contract involves the delivery of four Allweiler centrifugal pumps which will handle pumping of lubrication oil and a
123 m3 lubrication oil tank - the largest unit of this type that Allweiler has ever delivered.

"We received this order for two main reasons," according to Stefan Kleinmann, director of pumps skids at Allweiler AG: "First, because we have a tremendous amount of experience with complex auxiliary systems for power plants - from design to installation. And second, we have a long-standing and successful relationship with turbine manufacturer Siemens AG."
