Helicopter refuelling pump skid with twin pumps and pipework, doors open

Pump skid

The fuel pump unit of a helicopter refuelling system

The pump skid draws Jet A-1 from the storage tank and delivers it under pressure to the dispenser on the helideck. It is a self-contained, enclosed unit rated for a Zone 1 hazardous area, and it is one of the three modules of our helicopter refuelling system, together with the tank laydown skid and the dispenser skid.
