Oil Dynamics delivers pumping system for Austrian thermal baths

German artificial lift specialist Oil Dynamics GmbH has designed, delivered and installed a pumping system for Austria’s largest thermal resort in Bad Loipersdorf.

The electric submersible pump (ESP) will lift 3–6 litres per second of 60°C mineral-rich water from an installation depth of approximately 900m and deliver it uphill to the thermal baths.

Along with the pump, Oil Dynamics also supplied the complete surface equipment as a tailored, containerised solution. In addition to the customer’s control system, the ventilated and heated container includes an Oil Dynamics frequency converter ElektroMotion Technology ESP smartDRIVE and a fitting dry-type transformer.

The pumping system was delivered to schedule, with an Oil Dynamics service engineer on site assisting with the customer’s successful pump testing.

Roper Technologies Inc has agreed to sell a majority stake in its industrial businesses, including its entire Process Technologies segment and the industrial businesses within its Measurement & Analytical Solutions segment, to affiliates of private investment firm Clayton, Dubilier & Rice LLC (CD&R).

The transaction includes the Cornell, FMI and Roper Pump businesses, as well as Alpha, AMOT, CCC, Dynisco, FTI, Hansen, Hardy, Logitech, Metrix, PAC, Struers, Technolog, Uson and Viatran. Together, these businesses generated approximately US$940 million of revenue and US$260 million of EBITDA in 2021. “This is the final step in Roper’s divestiture strategy to reduce the cyclicality and asset intensity of our enterprise,” said Neil Hunn, Roper Technologies’ president and CEO. “Selling a majority interest in these industrial businesses will provide Roper with significant upfront cash, while maintaining the ability to receive additional cash proceeds from the future exit of our minority interest.” “We are excited to partner with CD&R given their track record of successful corporate partnerships. Operating as a standalone entity will enable these businesses to build on their niche-leading strategies and continue creating value for their customers and shareholders,” added Hunn. John Stroup, operating advisor to CD&R Funds, will lead the standalone entity when the transaction closes.
