Shell Offshore Rigs Produce

Fresh Water From Waste Heat

Off the Louisiana-Texas Gulf Coast, Shell Oil

Company has many offshore production and drill- ing platforms at work. Both oil and gas are being produced.

Until five years ago, all of the fresh water was barged out f or use by the crews manning many of the platforms; water used for drinking, cooking, make-ready and wash down. Today, this need is primarily met by the use of desalinators. Shell engineers designed a system using Continental

Emsco supplied Maxim HJ50 waste heat recovery desalinators. These units provide normal fresh- water requirements by utilizing the available waste heat on platforms.

The units are completely packaged on skids, and include piping, pumps, electricals and salinity con- trols—for easy handling and quick installation.

The first HJ50 units went into Shell service in 1967. They now have over 55 units in operation on production platforms. A typical installation produces 2,400 gpd of fresh water using jacket water heat from generator drive engines.

The system operates under vacuum, with the boiling of seawater at a low temperature (125°

F). Chemical cleaning is required every three months. Continental Emsco has coated the desali- nator package exterior with Shell's specified cor- rosion resistant epoxy, and has included an elec- trolysis control system.

Maxim seawater desalinators are manufactured by Riley-Beaird, Inc., P.O. Box 1115, Shreveport,

La., 71130, iin a wide ran°e of produced freshwater capacities—from 50 to 500,000 gallons per day.

Seatrain Consolidates

Container Operations

Seatrain Lines, Inc. has announced the re- structuring of its Container Division organiza- tion to provide centralized control and admin- istration erf international operations.

Joseph J. Celli, the division's president, said the new structure was designed to consolidate, with substantial cost savings, _ the previous largely autonomous operations of the com- pany's widely separated port and marketing facilities, each with its own marketing and operations organizations.

Mr. Celli said Arthur C. Novacek has been named to the newly created post of executive vice president, responsible for worldwide mar- keting functions formerly held by the presi- dents of autonomous divisions. In his new position, Mr. Novacek will establish an inte- grated marketing network reporting to him through marketing vice presidents in each of the major zones of international trade.

Mr. Celli also named Ronald A. Kucks to the newly created post of executive vice presi- dent responsible for operations throughout the

Seatrain system. Mr. Kucks was formerly vice president, transportation, for Associated

Transport. Both new posts carry greater au- thority and broader control in Seatrain's ex- panded container system than had existed in the organization for any position previously,

Mr. Celli said'.

Also announced were the appointments of

Kevan H. Cleary as vice president, manage- ment control, and George Workman, vice president, management information, and of three executive assistants to the president,

John J. Haggerty, Peter G. Murphy and Kurt

Rosenbach.

Mr. Cleary will have divisional responsibil- ity for personnel, office management, cost con- trol, budgeting and administrative services.

Mr. Workman will oversee the division's data processing, industrial engineering and systems/ procedures operations. "UNMATCHED EXPERIENCE
