October 5, 2016 GlobeCore engineers commissioned a CMM-0,6 unit in Carpenedolo (Brescia, Italy)

Transformer oil purification plant CMM-0.6 is designed for removal of contaminants, water and gases from  insulating oils with viscosity below 70 mm / cm2 (cSt) at 50 °C.

The plant is perfect for facilities engaged in installation, repair and operation of oil-filled high-voltage equipment (power transformers, high voltage switches, etc.).

The CMM-0.6 plant operates in different modes:

• heating and filtering of oil;
• thermal vacuum cleaning of oil.

October 3, 2016: the city of Muscat in Oman hosted a seminar dedicated to the  problems of oil, gas and electricity industries.

The seminar was organized by RAY International Group and gathered around 50 participants from Oman, Norway and Germany.

As part of the event, GlobeCore presented equipment for purification and regeneration of insulation oils, drying of transformer solid insulation and filling power transformers with insulating oils in vacuum.

GlobeCore equipment may be used on site, without switching it off line, which ensures the continuity of power supply.

GlobeCore presentation always includes a practical demonstration of equipment. This time Globecore introduced one of its latest developments: a CMM-0.5 unit, designed for pumping, heating, cleaning and degassing of insulating oil in small transformers. The compact size of the equipment allows it to be used for servicing offshore transformers and transformer wind turbines.

August 25: representatives of GlobeCore arrived to Quito (Ecuador) to start the CMM-12R plant and train customer staff.

Before a full start up, a test run of equipment was performed, which showed the following results of transformer oil regeneration:

• dielectric loss tangent: 0.7% at 90 ° C (initial value: 11%);
• breakdown voltage: 80 kV.

Note that the CMM-12R plant has the following advantages:

• round the clock regeneration of transformer oil without interruptions for sorbent reactivation;
• condition monitoring of all components of the equipment;
• advanced software;
• control of oil regeneration through a GSM-module;
• zero loss of oil during regeneration.

There is a specially equipped operator’s room with air conditioning and a PC for easier operation. Performance of the equipment In regeneration mode is 4 m3 / h.

Staff training was conducted on an operating transformer in Ambato, Ecuador. The CMM-12R plant processed insulating oil directly in the transformer on-line without taking the it offline. Working in a mountainous area, the GlobeCore equipment demonstrated consistently high transformer oil regeneration results.

June 30-July 1: GlobeCore conducted a practical training course in cleaning diesel for a US delegation.

The event was held at the GlobeCore International Training Centre, located in Oldenburg (Germany).

The interest of the American guests to GlobeCore equipment is not surprising. The company developed the CMM (UVR) plants , which clean and clarify different types of oil: mineral oil, diesel fuel, gas condensate, heating oil etc. After regeneration, clarification and purification the oil is stable and does not darken.

The results of the training were the basic knowledge and skills necessary for operation of the UVR plants for purification and clarification of diesel fuel, acquired by the United States specialists.

June 1-2, this year, delegates from GlobeCore visited Windhoek (Namibia), and held several meetings with representatives of the Namibian electricity industry.

During these meetings the GlobeCore delegates presented the company’s equipment for filtration, vacuum degassing and regeneration of mineral oil and equipment designed for atmospheric air drying and drying of solid insulation of transformers.

Most attention was drawn to the UVR regeneration unit. This equipment uses a unique technology of processing mineral oil with a special sorbent, which cleans and restores transformer, turbine and industrial oils, as well as diesel fuel, gasoline, kerosene, heating oils etc.

In the course of the presentation there was a practical demonstration of the UVR laboratory unit, purifying contaminated samples of hydraulic fluid. The contaminated fluids were kindly provided by the representatives of Botswana, who were also present at the event. After processing, the oil recovered its original color and restored its performance characteristics.

On the whole, the trip to Namibia can be regarded as successful. GlobeCore once again had a fruitful dialog with the representatives of the electricity industry. New agreements were reached for the production and supply of oil equipment to South Africa.

April 21-22 this year, GlobeCore head office hosted guests from different countries.

The office in Oldenburg was visited by specialists from the Czech Republic, Belgium and the UK to take part in a seminar on purification and regeneration of mineral oil.

It should be noted that such events are organized by our company on a regular basis and are an integral part of the International Training Centre in Oldenburg. Anyone can take a course in operating GlobeCore oil filtering equipment.

During the seminar the guests were presented with the latest developments and achievements of our company, and watched oil recovery process demonstrated using the UVR laboratory unit. As usual, the regenerating equipment showed great results. The guests were satisfied with the seminar.

1-4 March in Dubai the 41st annual Middle East Electricity 2016 exhibition was held.

Over 1500 of international companies from 56 countries (total participant count was over 2000) gathered to present the newest development in electric power industry. The South African division of GlobeCore could not ignore such an event and participated with the demonstration of oil regeneration capabilities using a laboratory UVR unit. The participants of the event were impressed and satisfied with the result.

Middle East Electricity 2016 was combined with another event: Solar Middle East 2016. This event was devoted to solar power generation, a promising direction for the Middle East nations. Solar power plants have already been constructed in India, Morocco and Egypt. The possibility of expanding this experience to other countries was discussed.

On 2 March, the event was visited by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum – the Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE. The esteemed guest expressed his satisfaction with the operation of the giant solar power plants built in Abu-Dhabi and Dubai in 2013. Also, the Sheikh expressed his wish to see solar power generation share expand worldwide.

The Middle East Electricity 2016 event has again demonstrated the potential of the world’s nations in power generation, environmental safety and preservation of the planet’s resources.
