Project Description

Chile

FCA has supplied several solutions to the copper mining sector. This case study shows the first mining project where water needs are supplied through a pipeline that transports water from sea to mine site located in a desert area.

Due to the corrosive nature of the transported fluid, FCA has had to customize its solutions choosing the appropriate materials (Duplex, Inconel,…) and ensure a long life and maintenance free process.

Highlights:

• Corrosive fluids.
• Exotic materials.
• High Pressure up to class 2500#.
• Severe service.
