As FPSO deployment increases in Brazil, effective combustion air intake filtration is vital for gas turbine reliability. Significant oil discoveries, such as BP's Bumerangue, drive demand for reliable offshore production.

The MODEC Gato do Mato FPSO will produce 120,000 bopd and is designed for 25 years of operation. Challenges include airborne contaminants, particularly salt, which can harm turbine performance. Parker Hannifin and Baker Hughes provide filtration solutions to ensure gas turbine longevity and efficiency.
