INTERNAL DEVELOPMENT STUDY
Modular instrumented test skid
Bring fabrication, fluid components and instrumentation into a maintainable water-test assembly.
Project updates & results
Proposed study
This is a proposed internal development study. Verified parts and results are not yet available.
The brief defines what the study will investigate and measure.
The proposed brief
Package a small, maintainable fluid-test assembly within a fixed footprint, with clear access to replaceable items and repeatable interfaces. Define it as a low-pressure, non-hazardous water demonstrator.
Design, iteration & manufacture
Layout and interface review; a simple process schematic and bill of materials; fabricated frame and sheet panels; machined interfaces; printed locating aids; standard fluid components and instrumentation. Compare alternative layouts through physical access trials, then build and inspect the chosen assembly.
What the study will measure
Assembly and maintenance-task time, footprint, fit, flow/pressure measurements, leakage, component interchangeability and as-built drawing accuracy. Select ratings and test conditions through the engineered scope, rather than treating the label “low pressure” as an acceptance criterion.
Applications for customers
An integrated general-fabrication and assembly example for onshore/offshore energy suppliers, industrial plant and clean nuclear-support test equipment. It can become useful DPM infrastructure for DS11 and the existing heat exchanger, avoiding a purely promotional build. Offshore service, hazardous-area operation and nuclear duty would each require their own requirements and release route.
