BENEFITS

Modular units / benefits

Reduction on the overall project lead time.

Modules construction can be done simultaneously with on site other works.

Single contractor managing design, engineering, procurement and construction.

No site management costs for the process part of the project.

Full assembly and tests of the modules prior shipment to ensure proper fit up and

hassle free installation on site.

Overall costs of the components reduced through modularisation and standardisation.

Designed for easy capacity extension or/ upgrade.

Easy installation and dismantling (if relocation). Less housing space.

Modules built in ideal QHSE conditions in a secured workshop by trained teams as

per EU standards.

Reduction of risks related to transportation, site congestion and material storage.

All modules fitted with platforms, safety rails, access and lifting lugs built.

5

OPTIMIZED SHIPMENT AND HANDLING

All modules fit in 40’

containers

LMU / overview

• A complete modularized unit, designed for blending and if required filling and

packaging lubricants.

• Standard LMU uses a batch process, with multiple blenders. Materials are

integrated in the batch using a metering system.

• LMU can be partially or fully automated.

• Suitable for small to big output capacity (from 2-3000 mtpa to 150,000 mtpa on

one shift basis)
