Oil & Gas Pumps (Upstream, Midstream, Downstream & Terminals)
From produced-water and tank farms to refinery dosing and chemical transfer, we match hydraulics, metallurgy and compliance to the service. Self-priming for bypass and loading, submersible for pits, gear for fuels/lube, AODD for portable/unknown fluids, progressive-cavity for viscous slurries, mag-drive for corrosives, and multistage/centrifugal for pressure sets. Brands: Gorman-Rupp, BJM, Goulds, Grundfos, Griswold, Roper, Blackmer, Wilden, Yamada, ARO, Netzsch, Finish Thompson, Iwaki, LMI, Neptune, Emec, Walchem, Flux, J.L. Wingert.
Best-Fit Pumps by O&G Service
| Service | Best Pump Type | Recommended Brands | Why It’s Best |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fuel oil / diesel / condensate transfer | External gear (relief) | Roper; Blackmer | PD flow across viscosity; easy relief/bypass protection |
| Produced water / sump & pit service | Self-priming trash or submersible | Gorman-Rupp (self-priming); BJM (submersible) | Solids handling, above-grade service or immersed reliability |
| Portable transfer / unknown fluids | AODD (bolted; ATEX options) | Wilden; Yamada; ARO | Air-powered safety; run-dry/dead-head; solids capable |
| Viscous slurries / tank bottoms | Progressive-cavity (VFD, abrasion kits) | Netzsch | Steady low-shear flow at very high viscosity/solids |
| Corrosive/solvent chemical transfer | Mag-drive sealless centrifugal (PP/PVDF/ETFE) | Finish Thompson DB/UC; Iwaki MX/MD | Leak-free containment; broad chemical compatibility |
| Chemical injection (H2S scavengers, corrosion inhibitors, demulsifiers) | Digital diaphragm / peristaltic with accessories | LMI PD/TD; LMI KML/KBL; Neptune; Emec; Walchem (control) | Accurate ppm; hose option for off-gassing; full validation hardware |
| Booster / washdown / utility pressure | End-suction / multistage centrifugal | Grundfos NB/NK; Grundfos CR; Goulds; Griswold | Efficient pressure backbone with VFD control |
| Drum/IBC to day tanks (chemicals) | Drum/IBC pump + injection hardware | Flux; J.L. Wingert (columns, quills) | Ergonomic unloading; proper injection & calibration |
Note: Where required, API 610/ISO 5199 options and hazardous-area motors/instrumentation are available on select models. We’ll confirm materials, seals and approvals with your spec.

How We Engineer O&G Duty
- Containment & safety: sealless where compatible; correct seal plans; relief/bypass on PD.
- Hydraulics: BEP-biased selection, NPSH margin at worst-case levels, VFD control.
- Materials: elastomers/metals vs. H2S, chlorides, aromatics; coatings for salt/fugitive mist.
- Compliance: hazardous-area motors/instrumentation and documentation where required.
- Serviceability: above-grade clean-outs, isolation, drains/vents and standard wear kits.

Oil & Gas Pump FAQs
When should I use mag-drive vs. a sealed pump?
Choose mag-drive for compatible corrosives/solvents or VOCs where containment is critical. For heavy hydrocarbons or high temperature, we’ll specify the right seal plan instead.
What protects PD pumps on fuel/oil systems?
Relief/bypass valves, pressure switches and interlocks. We also confirm NPSH margin, suction sizing and cold-start viscosity.
Can you meet hazardous-area requirements?
Yes—on select models we can provide hazardous-area motors/instrumentation and documentation to match your spec. We’ll confirm at quote.
