POT’s New-Year first scrubber installation

The first POT-DeSOx Scrubber retrofitting project undertaken by Shandong Pure Ocean Technology Co.,Ltd (POT) in 2019 has recently completed the retrofitting design in CUD Shipyard, and successfully completed the lifting and positioning of scrubber tower.


M/V KALIMANTAN EXPRESS is a wood carrier with the main dimensions of 215M*37M and a load of 54686T. The drydock is mainly for POT-DeSOx Scrubber installation and ship regular inspection, while scrubber installation is the core part.

In order to ensure the quality, quantity, and delivery of the project safely, POT cooperated with CUD Shipyard again and set up a project team with high technical level and strong construction ability. The team members carried out thorough planning, and preliminary planning of technology, quality and safety production plan, which greatly promoted the overall preliminary prefabrication of scrubber tower and chimney and the rapid and orderly development of related work. Up to now, the project has completed the whole hoisting of the scrubber tower and the chimney,and basically completed the modification of the engine room piping and the laying of electrical cables.
