Pörner Group takes over the water business from Siemens Austria
On March 1, 2020, the Pörner Group expanded its portfolio with the business area for water treatment engineering in the oil and gas industry. The new ‘Pörner Water’ competence center adds industrial water treatment to Pörner’s range of services - from the concept study to the implementation of entire projects and predictive maintenance.
Sustainability with water treatment at Pörner
Pörner created a new competence center on March 1, 2020 for more sustainability in dealing with one of the most important resources on earth, water. After Siemens Austria had decided to discontinue its water business in Europe, the water experts led by Dr. Robert Vranitzky were integrated into the Pörner Group.
The engineers of the new ‘Pörner Water’ division have in-depth process know-how and competence for industrial water treatment as well as many years of experience in project management and execution of international projects.
Accumulated water competence
Over the past decades, the team has planned, executed and successfully commissioned a large number of industrial water treatment plants in Europe, Central Asia and selected countries in Africa. The portfolio ranges from water treatment plants in the oil production (upstream) for deoiling of produced water to the treatment of process water in refineries (down-stream).
While the treatment scheme for produced water treatment primarily consists of flotation units followed by special media filters (walnutshell filters), the entire technology spectrum of process water treatment is applied in downstream installations.
In addition, numerous innovation projects for new technology applications in water treatment for the oil and gas industry were implemented and customers were supported in the digital transformation.
