Chicago, Ill (19 Dec, 2013)— John Crane today announced it will supply Italian pump designer Termomeccanica Pompe (TMP) products from across the company’s portfolio for the development of the Zubair Oil Field, one of largest in Iraq.  The agreement covers mechanical seals and systems, high-performance couplings and hydrodynamic bearings used in the 24 centrifugal pumps supplied by TMP.  A service option has been discussed for a later stage once the plants are in operation.

The John Crane products chosen are highly engineered and have an established track record for reliability which was a key factor for this win given the long duration of the project.”
