Enhancing Safety & Uptime 

Flame Arrester Replacement on a Deep-Water FPSO 

Grey Flame Arresters

Background

A major offshore energy operator was experiencing recurring operational disruptions due to aging flame arresters on its FPSO vessel. Frequent cleaning, high pressure losses, and long maintenance durations were causing production downtime and increased operational risk.   

Solution

PROTEGO® supplied new detonation-proof, easy-maintenance flame arresters engineered to fit the existing installation footprint. The upgraded units include stabilized flame filter discs for simplified handling and drain-tap features to reduce condensation build-up, enabling faster and safer offshore maintenance. 

Result

The upgraded system delivered meaningful operational improvements, including significantly improved cleaning efficiency, reduced maintenance time, and greater reliability. The operator also achieved safer offshore operations with fewer resource requirements.
