Mr. Cassidy joins BYC from Saint John Shipbuilding, where he was project manager during the construction of the $160-million Bow Valley semisubmersible drill rig in the past two years.

AMR™ Is New Name For Transamerica Delaval Line Of Three-Screw Pumps Transamerica Delaval Inc. has chosen a new name for its line of three-screw pumps: AMR™—axial multi-rotor pumps. The new trade name was chosen after Transa- merica Delaval terminated its joint technical assistance agreement with IMO AB of Sweden. The new name joins those of two other well-known families of ro- tary positive displacement pumps engineered and manufactured by Transamerica Delaval in the United States: GTS®—geared twin- screw pumps, and CIG*—crescent internal gear pumps. J. Kenneth Lippincott, vice president and general manager of Pyramid™ Pump Division, pointed out that AMR pumps have been reliable pieces of rotating equip- ment onboard ship, in utilities, re- fineries, chemical plants and fluid power systems for more than 50 years, classing them as unique for simplicity of design, smoothness of flow, high shaft speed capability and very low noise. Trasamerica Delaval has 19 op- erating divisions at 22 manufac- turing locations worldwide. The company makes a line of indus- trial products including compres- sors, connectors, controls, diesel engines, electric motors, fasteners, filters, forgings, gearing, pumps, sensors, steam condensers, tur- bines, valves and waste treatment systems.

The new screw compressor for air-conditioning installations in ships. MINISCREW from STAL means screw compressors with maximum reliability for the world's shipping lines. Compressors which provide efficient refrigeration under a wide range of climatic conditions. During the last 20 years - ever since screw compressors began to be used for marine refrigeration installations (where we have long been world leaders) - technical development has made continuous progress. Our new screw compres- sors now operate effectively even in the lower capacity range for air- conditioning installations. At the same time, they offer the same high efficiency, low maintenance costs and long life as our well-known large compressors. The secret behind the high relia- bility and low life cycle costs of MINISCREW is just inside the cas- ing. MINISCREW has only four moving parts, as against 100 or so in a reciprocating compressor. The screw compressor is a rotating machine with accurately balanced rotors. Consequently, vibration is virtually eliminated. In addition, the new robust design has no sensi- tive operating valves and is much more resistant to liquid carryover. The strenght of MINISCREW lies in its simplicity. That is why MINISCREW is simply the best. We assume full responsibility Our job is to ensure that your entire installa- tion gives trouble-free operation. We have an organization that provides all the support you need. From planning to main- tenance and service. With STAL as your supplier, you have at your disposal a full range of knowhow and technical resources. Change to more reliable airconditioning A worn reciprocating compressor which often causes expensive operating disturb- ances is a drain on your economy and a burden for the crew. Save money and improve crew efficiency. Change to MINISCREW and your investment will soon pay off! MINISCREW STAL MARINE Small, but strong.
