For many around the globe, temperatures of -40°C are unfathomable. But for those working in oil fields across the harshest parts of our planet, these temperatures are a wintertime reality. Under such frigid conditions, being able to rely on your power source becomes a matter of life or death. That’s why we’re proud to share that the generator sets used on this oil field have #PerkinsPower at their heart. Explore the inner workings of this remarkable operation: https://lnkd.in/ds-wu_d8

FACT OR FICTION? Engines only require annual checks. FICTION! We recommend daily engine checks. Many believe that they would notice issues if they arise and could resolve them then. But slight changes in performance easily go unnoticed and tell you a lot about your machine's overall health. In fact, engine performance often drops by about 20% before it’s noted – leading to unnecessary costly repairs and downtime. Why not get started on that to-do list today?

The future is here… At least when it comes to Perkins engine design. We’re providing a behind-the-scenes look at the computer models and simulations we use to understand how air, fuel, oil, coolant, and exhaust gases flow and interact inside an engine. These models offer a way to see an engine’s inner workings– and prevent any design flaws. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/eZRfMnUd

From assembly to installation, we’re following our first-ever E44 Auxiliary Marine Engine on every step of its journey around the globe. Next up: With testing complete, the E44 has been packaged by Multico Power Drive Pte Ltd. We are now moving on to installation support and site commissioning. Once the generator set is in position on the vessel, the MPD technicians connect and seal the hoses and pipes to ensure there are no leaks. Next, three key systems require attention - the exhaust, fuel, and water systems. The procedure is to carry out an extensive safety protection and function check for high water temperature, low oil pressure, overspeed shutdown, in addition to class specific requirements. The generator set forms part of the Auto Monitoring System (AMS) and all electrical connections are established to ensure the set is talking to the vessel’s central control system. The technicians are now satisfied that everything is in place. Stay tuned for the next stage as we wait for the generator set powered by the first Perkins E44 marine engine to be turned on during the sea trials ready for the hand over to ship owner.
