Cathelco Seafresh announced today that it has received an order to supply reverse osmosis desalinators for the Khannur, an LNG carrier owned by Golar LNG of Norway which is being converted to a FSRU at the Jurong Shipyard in Singapore.
After conversion, the vessel will be renamed the West Java FSRU and installed at a location in Jakarta Bay, Indonesia where it will be operated by PT Nusantara Regas.
Two Cathelco Seafresh ‘Ton’ units will be installed on the vessel, each with the capacity to produce 40 tonnes of fresh water per day.
Fully automatic in design, they incorporate water quality sensing systems which test the product water electronically.
Pure water is passed to a holding tank, while any which does not reach the standard is rejected and sent overboard.
