Golar Marine Incinerators Detailed In Free Literature Pego Systems Inc., Long Beach, Calif., is offering free color litera- ture on the full line of Golar Marine incinerators manufactured by Team Tec AS of Norway. According to the literature of- fered by Pego Systems, U.S. repre- sentative of Team Tec AS, Golar Marine incinerators have been market leaders since 1972. Golar Marine reached a significant miles- tone recently when Pennsylvania Shipbuilding installed a Golar GS500 incinerator aboard the USS Benjamin Isherwood (T-AO-191). It marked the 1,000th installation of a Golar Marine incinerator. The four units detailed in the lit- erature include: the Golar Marine OG 120, a compact unit for waste problems of small and medium- sized vessels; the Golar Marine OGS 200 and OGS 400 models, which combine the convenience of a batch feed operation with the advantages of continuous feeding through a re- volving sluice; and the Golar Marine GS 500, a high-capacity model which is used to burn solid waste, sewage and sludge oil aboard pas- senger vessels, offshore platforms, naval ships, etc. Full-color photographs of each unit, along with schematic and di- mensional drawings, as well as tech- • nical data are included in the litera- ture.
