If you are going electrical, verify the available voltage. Many
industrial plants use higher voltages. The plant I was at had 4,400
volt pumps, a tad higher than the norm.

I agree with Craig.
When he and I used to work together, for industrial facilities, we
generally used two(2) diesel driven pumps due to the initial
capital cost
of providing the power and tying in ahead of the main disconnect,
step-down
transformers, etc. Our electrical designers and engineers also
appreciated
the fact that they didn't have to jump through hoops figuring out
how to
provide the additional loads, design, etc.
Of course, with commerical or institutional facilities, electric is
sometimes the only way to go.
