The fuel oil module is fitted in the engine room of a ship between the oil-conveying line from the day tank to the main engine. This allows for a constant supply of heavy oil over pump systems.

 

In order to reach the necessary viscosity, heaters are used. Various control valves and gauges at the modules are necessary for safety at work. The components all need to work well together - a module and its components is the core of an engine room. Lengthy failures heavily affect a customer, resulting in long lay days and/or danger to the crew if the damage is at sea.
