A Basic But Helpful Guide On Framo System

Framo pump on board tankers

I recently met a 3rd officer. I had a conversation with him about less number of jobs these days for junior officers.

He told me how he got the job just after clearing his exams while his friends were still waiting.

You might ask what edge he had over his friends !!!

Well, he had worked on ships (tankers) with Framo pumps.

I was like.. what ??  Now Framo system helping to get the jobs on ships.

Few seconds later when I got my breath back, I realised how Framo has captured the tanker market.

Truth be told, Submersible pumps are the present and future of the tanker industry.
