The pumps will be supported in the region by Nama who will also be overseeing the commissioning and installation as well as providing first level technical support.
On the back of these latest orders, Amarinth has also strengthened its presence in the Middle East with the recruitment of an Export Sales Manager, Chris Ryan.

A chemical engineering graduate Chris has worked in the pump industry for much of his career and his intention on joining Amarinth is clear: "I intend to use my experience to build on the considerable success Amarinth has already gained in the Middle East, continuing to grow its presence in the region and maintaining its pedigree as a major player in the API market.
I am extremely excited to have joined such a dynamic and innovative pump company".
Oliver Brigginshaw, Managing Director of Amarinth, added: "We are delighted to announce this new order which clearly establishes Amarinth as a leading supplier of pumping solutions in the Middle East.
We are particularly pleased that once again our API610 pumps have been selected to work within one of world's most arduous environments.
This order is a further endorsement that organisations in the region now have a viable replacement for the existing Girdlestone pumps that many had come to rely on.
Following the appointment of Chris Ryan to oversee our business in the region, we are now looking forward to expanding our operations further and we are reviewing plans to open an office in the Middle East, perhaps as soon as next year".
