By Donna Gray As Kevin Westlund, master crane trainer for NCSG gets comfortable in the control seat of the NCSG Crane and Heavy Haul Corporation training simulator on the grounds of the Global Petroleum Show, he easily demonstrates how delicate and imposing each movement a crane make.

“The whole purpose of this investment is to test a skill set of an employee before they get into a crane,” he says. “Even guys that have 30 years’ experience are asked to show us what they can do. Then we know what types of jobs to put them on or we send them back for more training.”

NCSG Crane and Heavy Haul Corporation (NCSG) is the largest majority Canadian-owned and heavy haul company in Canada.

Headquartered in Edmonton, the organization manages a busy fleet of mobile cranes, tractors, trailers, gantry and weighing systems.

The simulator system, outfitted with a real crane seat, pedals and controls, helps trainers like Westlund to scrutinize how new hires and seasoned employees maneuver loads, plug in computer specifications, perfect their hand-eye coordination, depth perception, and catching the load itself.

It also helps trainers and the employees identify bad habits that can cause misplacement or an accident, especially during inclement conditions.

“We throw everything at them that Mother Nature offers, except for lightening,” he states. “One of the major issues that crane operators deal with is soft ground issues, so they need to know how to calculate movements based on these conditions. It takes a certain amount of finesse moving the controls carefully. That’s what we teach more than anything.”

Overseeing Westlund’s demo for the GPS Official Show Daily, Steve Fryer, NCSG’s training manager chimes in that there has been a fundamental shift in how safety is executed, before, during and after the

Fresh Ideas For Industry Collaboration to Push Technology Development

By Shelly Brimble Having worked with technology focused companies trying to launch solutions in the oil and gas industry, I know first hand how difficult this process is. I was reminded of these barriers during question and answer sessions conducted throughout the SPE Heavy Oil Conference.

For many, the task of creating a commercially viable technology that could be used in heavy oil operations is daunting, often exhausting their own private capital reserves from themselves, business associates as well as government grants.

In order to gain access to financing, private equity or public markets, they need to prove their product is commercially viable.

But it is a giant leap to become commercially viable since they need to try to gain access to test and prove their product in the field. Many have already exhaustively tested their solutions in a lab-based setting, but the field provides many challenges outside the controls of a lab setting.For producers, opening access to their operations to an unproven technology is not an option as it creates too much risk in an already high stakes industry.

Unfortunately, this is where many great ideas fail. In order to get beyond this barrier, many inventors have to think outside their box and create a new reality for a commercially viable business model where partnerships and collaboration are necessary to gain access to pilot projects.

The barriers are no different in other industries such as healthcare, but they can be smoothed out if there was greater access for field-testing pilot projects.

For example, in Calgary there is a Ward of the 21st Century (W21C) at the Foothills Hospital that provides a working hospital environment for technology providers to beta test and evolve their solutions as well as access to the resources they need to evolve these solutions into commercially viable product.

It is a win-win for both as healthcare gains access to the latest innovations and technology providers get help in incubating their product. The W21C is not-for-profit that is funded by various sources including philanthropists, government and industry.

Collaboration to enhance oil sands and heavy oil technology solutions is not a new idea. Models of this kind already existed such as Alberta Oil Sands Technology and Research Authority (AOSTRA) which was a crown-owned corporation focused on promoting the development and use of new technology for oil sands and heavy crude oil production. But as the province moved away from crown owned corporations, this opportunity ended.

A new one has risen through the Canada’s Oil Sands Innovation Alliance (COSIA) which is an alliance of oil sands producers focused on accelerating the pace of improvement in environmental performance in Canada’s oil sands through collaborative action and innovation. The scope of COSIA focuses on four Environmental Priority Areas (EPAs) – tailings, water, land and greenhouse gases. COSIA member companies have shared 560 distinct technologies and innovations that cost over $900 million to develop to date.

Perhaps it’s time for new ideas and for the heavy oil industry to broaden their collaboration scope by creating an open platform access to active mining and SAGD operations where technology providers could have an opportunity to perform pilot project testing and evolve their solutions. Perhaps the risk would be worth the rewards that this unfettered access could create.

Continues from cover “The current industry attitude is all about getting the job done first, then worry about safety,” Fryer states. “But really, you can’t complete a job without people learning and practicing competence and safety every day. Focusing on the training and retention of the processes is what ensures that the job gets done in the end.”

Patrick Carrigan, vice president of sales and marketing for NCSG, says the company has been trying to create a full-service experience for clients. Now, they have added a new dimension to the suite with a 53 x 17 foot simulation trailer, available to travel anywhere in North America.

“It’s purely to increase training competence in our staff,” he says. “It shows our clients that we only bring the most qualified and competent people to each job.

Kevin Westlund, master crane trainer for NCSG, takes a spin on the company’s advanced simulator to train and retain crane operators.

The simulator, which cost over $500,000, features Vortex software from CM Labs, and simulates two of the most common cranes in the industry—the crawler and the rough terrain.

The program offers dozens of scenarios in seven different crane categories and environmental conditions.

The tool is now a mandatory hiring and training mechanism for the organization, and clients have been privy to checking it out themselves in order to get a hands-on appreciation for the intricate nature of the business.

“Our customers are very receptive to the simulator and they have enjoyed trying it out,” Carrigan says. “When it comes down to it, the crane operator rules the roost, so to speak, because the rest of the team is relying on their capability to get the project moving.”

DriveWise Virtually Helps Fleet Drivers Improve Skills to Reduce Collisions

By Donna Gray As Canadian and US companies expand their activities in oil and gas, the reliance on the safe operation of vehicles and equipment comes to the forefront. With the apparent shortage of drivers in the industry and the focus on better driving skills, employers are looking for ways to inspire compliance.

DriveWise, a Barrie, Ontario based company, believes it has a solution with their virtual reality simulator and interactive classroom training program, which integrates a six-star approach to cooperative driving.

The TranSim VS5 features scenarios for trucking, fire apparatus, municipal works, waste management and transportation industries in order to improve driving behaviours and skill sets and to complement driver training in a risk-free environment.

Lesley de Repentigny, president and CEO, who spent years in the aeronautics industry, says the human factor of driving is still critical to a company’s success in business as well as safety.

“People are always bottom-line conscious, but the majority of those in charge are also focused on safety,” she says. “Clients want to standardize training for their staff so that they are prepared for so many different conditions in places like Alberta, where roads and weather can change quickly.”

The simulator offers a 180° view, three channel plasma screen, a large driving environment that feels like a real vehicle. The visuals are crisp and realistic, as well as the force-loaded steering mechanism, which gives real-time feedback to improve muscle memory such as a tire blowout, skids and even wild animals jumping across the road.

The software allows the employer to build scenarios by simply dragging and dropping modules into the program. Hundreds of prebuilt lesson plans reinforce learning, and the data of each driver can be collected and reviewed to evaluate behaviour on an ongoing basis.

“The evaluation tool pulls out performance issues and breaks it down to details you may not catch on a road test,” she says. “We even have a camera on the simulator that films the driver so trainers as well as the driver can see when their eyes wander, or if they are using their mirror.”

De Repentigny states that research reveals that driver testing in an actual vehicle or in a simulator results in the same outcomes, but the DriveWise system is actually cheaper and can provide more weather and situational scenarios for every employee any day of the week in any weather condition.

“If you hire a driver in the summer, especially if they are from another country with warm weather, you will never know how they handle driving on icy conditions,” she says.

First Canada, which specializes in bus and coach transport, recently invested in its own simulator for their employees to use.

Ronald Evans, regional safety manager for First Canada, is excited for the program and equipment to arrive—and it will go straight to the Fort McMurray region.

“We are committed to creating a better and safer working environment—it’s part of the vision of our company’s executive,” he says. “Our facility is camp based, and we have shift drivers who get behind the wheel and drive in to various conditions such as sleet, snow, rain, ice. They are also driving at night a lot. It really is extreme work.”

Evans says DriveWise equipment will be outfitted in a 37-foot trailer that will move site to site. It will also provide space for a classroom environment for further training and testing.

“We have over 1,000 employees up north, 700 of which are drivers,” he adds. “They’re waiting for this simulator and they are excited to improve their skills. We know it’s going to be a winner. Teaming with DriveWise was really a natural fit.”

New Forged Valve Designs Eliminates Creep and Stress in the Field

By Donna Gray Crane ChemPharma & Energy has recently launched a range of gate, globe and check valves for use in power, oil and gas and chemical markets.

Developed specifically for high-stress, high thermalcycling applications, the company has created a unique forging process and next-generation design that reduces the total cost of ownership, assuring consistent quality and longer valve life.

Crane has a long history of producing products for the aerospace, electronics, hydrocarbon processing, petrochemical, chemical, power generation, automated merchandising, and transportation industries. With advancements in technology and leaner operating budgets, Rob Marocco, general manager of operations and sales for Canada, says the petroleum industry is demanding products that have a longer performance life to reduce non-productive time and operating costs.

“These new valves give companies better cost solutions, especially when you can reduce shut down timing,” he says.

“Creep, cracking and fatigue are huge issues in the industry right now, and this new process reduces the risk in some really hard and hot conditions.”

Marocco says the new Pacific Forged line offers other payoffs including multi-stage ultrasonic testing that comes standard on all of Crane’s forgings and finished valves, a unique contoured shape and proprietary hardface overlay process makes the valves resistant to cracks and delamination.

“Clients will also see a quicker lead time, as 90 per cent of our valve types can ship in less than 20 weeks,” Marocco

adds. “We are still producing our cast valves that are designed according to client specifications, but we found that companies need valves that handle a lifetime of thermal cycling such as hot, warm and cold starts.”

Rich Ford, senior applications specialist for Crane, says the Pacific Forged valves are recommended for use in high pressure, high steam applications.

“These products perform very well in equipment for SAGD, OTSG, ethylene, LNG projects all over the world. Crane has seen it all, since the company has been in operation since 1855, and just over 100 years in Canada,” Ford says.

He adds that since thermo cycle changes are uncontrollable, which was the inspiration for the forged process, the company has produced three contoured types of valves: block, near-net contoured style, and fully contoured.

“As the structure is changing, the industry is demanding more improved forged products. To mitigate this and get it right the first time, we do ultra-sonic testing is standard with each product, rather than competitors who charge additional costs.”

Ford adds that the company`s engineering and fabrication group have designed all products to fit on existing equipment quickly and easily.

“We made these products to help reduce capital expenditure costs and help control a company`s maintenance budget,” he says. “These Pacific forged valves are easily replaceable, fitting standard industry size specifications.

We also anticipate they will have at least a 25-year life cycle average or more.”

International Focus During GPS Energy Leader’s Breakfast

New 4160-volt Chromalox DirectConnect systems provide significant installation savings and lower the cost of ownership for multi-megawatt electric process heating systems Chromalox, a leader in advanced thermal technologies, today announced the availability of DirectConnect medium voltage electric heating systems (patents pending). These systems especially suit multimegawatt applications in such heavy industries as power generation, oil and gas, petrochemical, and chemical. Chromalox supplies up to 7200-volt DirectConnect systems for virtually any process application, such as circulation systems, heat transfer packages, and steam boilers.

According to Mark Wheeler, Chromalox Global Director of Systems & Service, systems employing Chromalox DirectConnect become cost effective for heating applications in the one megawatt range and above. “At these power levels, our studies indicate significant savings for medium voltage systems when accounting for installation as well as product cost,” says Wheeler. “With our DirectConnect medium voltage system, the step-down transformer cost can be reduced or even

eliminated. The decreased amperage requires fewer circuits, smaller wire sizes, and significantly less labor.”

Mr. Wheeler adds that operating and maintenance costs also improve. Chromalox DirectConnect systems have less I2R energy loss, resulting in higher operating efficiencies,” says Wheeler. “In general, electric process heat systems—having no moving parts and a clean, robust design—enjoy low maintenance costs,” he says. “Additionally, all Chromalox DirectConnect systems incorporate replaceable medium voltage heating elements. Being able to quickly replace a single heating element can simplify maintenance and avoid costly process downtimes.”

Aside from designing and building DirectConnect heating elements, Chromalox also manufactures all the associated power control panels that support the proprietary system. This in-house capability allows Chromalox to offer a full selection of controls that best meets customer needs. Power control selections such as contactor, full-SCR, or SCRtrim load provide an optimal balance between cost and performance.

It was a full house for Global Petroleum Show’s (GPS) Energy Leaders Breakfast hosted June 11, 2014 at the Hyatt Regency Ballroom.

Honourable Cal Dallas, Minister of International and Intergovernmental Relations – Government of Alberta provided opening remarks for delegates interested in connecting with international markets or investing in Alberta’s robust energy sector.

Alberta has the lowest taxes in Canada – with a combined federal/provincial corporate tax rate of 25 per cent with no provincial retail sales tax, no capital tax, and no provincial payroll tax. “We are encouraging growth in the energy sector by investing in infrastructure to support development and by supporting research and development of new and innovative energy technologies. Dallas said. “As a result, Alberta has seen constant and increasing capital investment in all of our oil, gas and oil sands sectors.”

In his keynote address, he recognized there was some confusion regarding new federal rules on foreign investment. “Like many countries, Canada has a process to review foreign acquisitions of Canadian businesses over a certain threshold value,” he said.

Nevertheless, many opportunities in Alberta fall below the thresholds or do not require controlling interest. He added that he is working with the federal government to ensure the review process remains transparent and that it does not “unduly limit” the much needed investment in critical sectors of our economy.

Chromalox introduces DirectConnect as Part of its Extended Voltage Technology Platform

Dallas went on to point out host GPS provides an opportunity to make international business connections and provides an opportunity for participants to match with international partners and learn about export and investment opportunities in other districts. In order to help companies facilitate their goals internationally, his ministry has established a Small Medium Enterprise Export Council to provide recommendations on ways for our government to provide further help to exporters.

“As you can see, Alberta is open for business—and our government is dedicated to attracting investment partners from around the world,” he added.

Following his speech, delegates participated in a Panel Question & Answer with Honourable Tim McMillan, Minister Responsible for Energy & Resources – Government of Saskatchewan, Mr. S P Garg, Managing Director ONGC Videsh Limited, Sugiharto, President Commissioner Petramina (Indonesia). Many questions were being directed towards Sugiharto in regards to the possibility of connecting with this emerging market.

Drilling Through Tight Oil Challenges Photo Credit: Photo Courtesy of SRC

Tight oil is being hailed by some as the key to the world’s energy needs. But tight oil certainly does not come without its challenges – challenges that the Saskatchewan Research Council (SRC) has and is facing head on.

Horizontal drilling technologies have been heralded by many as the greatest advancements since the conception of the rotary drilling bit.

What is less known is that this technology was pioneered in Saskatchewan with SRC playing a significant role in the research and development of the technology.

Horizontal drilling increases the recoverable petroleum in a given formation, and even increases the production in fields previously thought of as marginal or mature. And while horizontal drilling is more economical for drilling, it also has a lesser impact on environmentally-sensitive areas. In fact, in some areas where drilling is not allowed for environmental reasons, it is possible to drill horizontal wells to the targeted deposit without harming the environment above.

Horizontal drilling has contributed to reclaiming and preserving thousands of ecologically-sensitive acres, while more efficiently using natural resources.

SRC’s Enhanced Oil Recovery team is applying its extensive expertise in enhanced waterflooding to the challenges posed by tight oil formations to recover the vast volumes of residual oil after primary production. Enhanced waterflooding is cost-effective and relatively simple to implement. New generations of surfactants offer the potential to overcome the reservoir’s extremely high capillary pressure that traps oil by either reducing oil/water interfacial tension or altering matrix wettability.

SRC’s work in this area focuses on screening and evaluating new surfactants and in tailored mixtures of surfactants or surfactants plus gas. Its engineers and scientists augment experimental studies – conducted in a setup specifically designed for tight oil – with numerical simulations to understand and advance this promising approach to tight oil recovery.

SRC is working with leading upstream producers in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin on ground-breaking single and multi-client projects that target demonstrable enhanced oil recovery (EOR) returns for key producers in formations such as the Bakken and Viking. The technology in development at SRC laboratories and in field tests promises to deliver benefits for the economy and the environment ranging from extending well life – with

positive impacts upon company bottom lines, jobs and the resulting royalties that underpin government services, such as health and education – to environmental benefits – by mitigating the constant need for fresh drilling and well abandonment that steep production decline curves, in fields like the Bakken, typically entail.

Another focus area for SRC is working with industry to address the vast reserves of heavy oil remaining after completing primary recovery – generally referred to as cold heavy oil production with sand (CHOPS). Saskatchewan alone has over 30,000 wells, where over 90 per cent of the original oil in place remains untapped. SRC has over 20 years of experience in heavy oil EOR and is leading initiatives engaging industry and research to develop commercial solutions to tap this vital resource – for the benefit of Saskatchewan and its neighbours.

Continuous research and improvement of oil recovery methods increases the economic potential of Saskatchewan’s – indeed Canada’s - oil industry and SRC consistently sets the bar high in keeping the research fresh, relevant and sustainable.

North America Drilling and Completion Activity is Robust, Driving Some Frac Price Increases Through 2016; Frac Capacity Additions of 1.1 Million HHP Expected for 2014 The North American market for hydraulic fracturing services will see strong growth through 2016 due to robust D&C activity, with moderate pricing increases expected in 2014, according to just-published analysis from PacWest Consulting Partners. PacWest’s PumpingIQ and WellIQ reports, which provide in-depth analysis and forecasts of North American drilling and completion activity and the hydraulic fracturing services market, indicate ongoing cost recovery-driven pricing increases in 2014. These are the first pricing increases the market has witnessed since late 2011.

According to PacWest, demand for frac services in the US Land market is expected to increase by 10% in 2014, and by 11% in Canada. Efficiencies across the D&C value chain, continue to erode realized frac demand, although at a slower rate than in 2012/2013. “Multi well-pad drilling, smart scheduling, 24 hour operations and other practices have softened frac demand growth since 2012, and will continue to do so into 2014. In particular, the Permian basin should see greater efficiency impacts as more companies shift to horizontal well and multi well pads,” according to PacWest Partner and PumpingIQ lead author Chris Robart.

Frac capacity utilization is expected to increase to 81% in 2014; however, PacWest sees potential market improvements being dampened by aggressive frac capacity additions. According to the company’s analysis, smaller Tier 2 & 3 pumpers were quick to react to the improving outlook for frac services and will account

12 Official Show Daily 2014

for nearly 2/3 of the 1.1 million HHP in net additions expected during 2014.

Despite this, PacWest forecasts moderate pricing increases in 2014 due to recent success by frac services companies in achieving greater cost recovery. This was made necessary by weather and supply chain challenges in late 14Q1 that drove up supply costs for many frac consumables. PacWest forecasts costs for key materials will continue to rise through 2015, resulting in continued cost recovery/pricing increases.

Looking north, PacWest expects the Canadian market for frac services to develop similarly to the US market, as increases in frac demand are poised to bring the Canadian market into balance.

This will be driven by activity growth in Duvernay and Montney plays, which together PacWest forecasts will push frac demand to 1.84 million HHP in 2014 (+11%). Further development in other plays will also accelerate demand.

Globally, PacWest forecasts frac capacity will increase by 16.2 MM HHP (+65%) between 2013 and 2018 (year-end capacity), with markets outside North America accounting for 55% of that growth. China continues to lead international additions, and surpassed Canada as the second largest frac market in the world during 2013. PacWest continues to cover emerging markets with the inclusion of Brazil and Colombia in their 2014 Q1 publication. Future PumpingIQ releases will include coverage of Argentina and Russia.

Over-Exuberance is a Fundamental Characteristic of Commodity Markets The North American gas market is on the cusp of a steep change: US, Canadian and Mexican consumption, plus LNG exports to the rest of the world, will rise by 20 billion cubic feet per day by 2020. For context, China consumed 15Bcfd in total in 2013.

We at Bloomberg New Energy Finance do not doubt the ability of producers and servicers to meet this tremendous challenge.

In fact, millions of acres of dry gas from Arkansas to Alberta are currently lying fallow, not being drilled due to low gas prices.

These resources can be brought online with minimal exploration or delineation work.

However, we see a dislocation that will lead to temporarily higher North American gas prices as the market searches for its new equilibrium.

The current market situation is best described as “supply-push”: low prices caused by an abundance of supply are pushing investments into energy-intensive industries and export facilities. But we are quickly moving to a “demand-pull” situation: once online, these new gas consumers will need new supplies.

The ramp-up in demand will begin in earnest in late 2015/2016 – in each year from 2016 to 2018, the “call” for increased production from the US and Canada will be more than 4Bcfd. Again for context, this is equivalent to total gas consumption in France. By this time, US power plant emissions regulations will have come into effect, causing substantial coal plant retirements and the need for increased gas generation. Several large new gas-intense chemicals facilities will also have been built, along with the first two trains at Sabine Pass, North America’s first LNG export terminal.

Oil sands projects using steam-assisted gravity drainage to extract bitumen will add substantially to Canadian gas demand.

Why do we think there will be a dislocation? Didn’t we see a massive switch out of dry gas plays into liquids-rich acreage in 2012? Why not just switch back?

Because oil drilling won’t get any less profitable. On today’s type curves and drilling and completion costs, the breakeven price of WTI crude oil for attractive areas of the Eagle Ford is less than $60 per barrel. The Permian is far from homogenous, but large areas in the Spraberry Trend and Wolfcamp Shale are economical above $75/bbl, as is the vast majority of the Bakken.

Therefore, we do not see a reversal of the Great Rig Migration of 2012, when rigs that had been drilling in the Haynesville and Woodford shales were relocated to Texas and North Dakota. Without these “spare rigs”, new rigs need to be built, and new drilling and completion crews will be needed to man them.

So, despite the fact that we see the breakeven price needed to bring on all of this new dry gas production at or under $4.50, we are likely to see prices spike while the services market adjusts.

Over-exuberance is a fundamental characteristic of commodity markets, and this time is no different. After the correction is over, prices should move back down to the long-term cost of supply, and producers can begin to put their (more modern) rig fleets to work on a more balanced portfolio of oil and gas assets.

DTI Guardian Shutdown System Diesel Tech Industries Ltd. (DTI); is a Canadian owned company who develop and manufacture remote shutdown calve for diesel engines. Since 2005, we have been involved in an intense R&D program designed to bring the most revolutionary positive airflow shut down system available to the industry today. DTI is a division of Diesel Tech Truck Repair Ltd., a diesel repair business that has been operational since 1999. DTI is owned and operated by Darren Rivet, a certified diesel engine specialist who has been in the industry for over thirty years. Working in the transportation and oilfield industry, DTI has been able to understand the wants and needs of their customers, as well as the limitations of existing products. DTI Safety, Security, Asset Retention and Management Systems have revolutionized the transportation industry by providing operators and managers with safety and control that they never thought possible.

The DTI Guardian Shutdown System is essential due to the nature of how diesel engines operate, which is, by the combustion of controlled fuel fed into the engine to control its speed. In the presence of airborne hydrocarbons, such as those caused by a fuel spill, a running diesel engine will rapidly enter into a “runaway state” by ingesting hydrocarbons vapor. If not stopped immediately, the engine can become a dangerous source for the ignition of a fire or explosion and this can result in loss of lives, destruction of equipment and facilities, plus extensive environmental damage. With the DTI system installed, companies will protect their operators, equipment and themselves by avoiding unnecessary costs due to litigation, property loss and environmental liability.

The DTI Guardian Shutdown System is unlike any other engine shutdown system in the market today. With traditional shutdown systems operators have no way of determining why their engine has stopped and once it has stopped, the valve is very difficult to be reset. The system is designed so that the valve will not close unless users want their engines to shutdown. Whether it is by dash control, present RPM shutdown or key fob. It also records the status of the valve at the time of a shutdown and the butterfly design prevents loading of unbuned fuel in the engine when activated.

The valve is also equipped with “Intel-a-Valve Technology™” which allows users to perform regular testing for a failure-free performance, as well as being the only shutdown valve of its kind with wireless capabilities. The DTI Guardian Shutdown System monitors the engine’s RPM at all times, if it gets too high, the valve will shut off the air supply to the engine. This is the safest, most practical and most effective way of shutting down a diesel engine in a “runaway state” and unlike other systems, our design does not load the engine with fuel during a shutdown. The system allows you to restart your engine safely straight way and the “Intel-a-Valve Technology™” performs constant monitoring to ensure valves work the first time and every time.

Victaulic Introduces Series 727 Ball Valve for Upstream Oil Systems Victaulic, introduces the Series 727 Ball Valve, a high-pressure, enhanced port, NACE-compliant valve with grooved ends for upstream oil applications. The Series 727 provides excellent flow characteristics and enables quick and easy installation and maintenance.

The internal design of the Series 727 Ball Valve has been streamlined to provide superior flow characteristics, offering improved throughput. Flow testing demonstrated up to one-third better flow than competitive standard port ball valves.

Featuring grooved ends, the Series 727 Ball Valve is joined using Victaulic couplings, enabling quicker and easier installation and maintenance than flanged valves. The Series 727 weighs one-third less than equivalent flanged valves, further easing handling and installation.

The two-piece valve features a floating ball for lower torque requirements, and is offered with manual handles with an integral tamper-resistant lock/seal. The Series 727 is designed for full open or shut-off service.

Series 727 valves can accommodate pressures of up to 1,500 psi (10,350 kPa) and are available in sizes ranging from 2 to 6 inches (50 to 150 millimeters). Common oilfield applications include wellhead hookups, flow lines, production headers, produced water lines, heater-treaters, separators, tank battery and salt water disposal, among others.

Leaders Share Insights During Panel Discussion at SPE Heavy Oil Conference

By Shelly Brimble Delegates filled the Palomino Room to hear what industry leaders had to say during a panel discussion titled “Beyond Here and Now,” that was hosted as part of the SPE Heavy Oil Conference.

The session focused on overcoming the challenges related to heavy oil recovery, environmental impacts of industry activity and increasingly challenging reservoir conditions. Discussions also centered on the barriers faced when launching technologies into heavy oil applications.

The panelists agreed that one of the most concerning issues facing the heavy oil industry is the negative environmental image that has become associated with oil sands activities, despite the fact that this is a highly regulated and environmentally monitored sector.

Panel moderator and president of the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers (CAPP) Dave Collyer, cited the fact that industry did not work on putting a positive environmental message into the public and that much work remains for all industry to turn that message around.

“We as an industry needed to learn and to become aware that we are reviled by the rest of the world,” added Mike MacSween, EVP major projects, Suncor Energy. “Words don’t count for much, but actions do.”

Simple Green Offers Cleaning Power Plus Gentler Environmental Footprint in the Petroleum Industry

BY DONNA GRAY In the world of environmental stewardship, Simple Green has been a champion from the very beginning. After witnessing an industrial accident involving caustic chemicals in the 1970s, Bruce Fabrizio and his late father created a line of cleaning products that catered to the consumer and industrial markets.

Their approach involved safer chemical compounds that took the risk out of cleaning a home, as well as in the manufacturing, fabrication, construction and engineering sectors.

“Simple Green products have been used throughout the extraction and production areas of the oil and gas industry, and we have found specific benefits to their chemistry and qualities,” says Bruce Fabrizio. “We have tested Crystal Simple Green to show that it is not only a beneficial cleaning agent, but can also act as a volatile vapor suppressant.”

The products, including Extreme Simple Green—originally developed for the aircraft industry— have made their way to project sites for E&P, construction, manufacturing and affiliated industries.

FaBrizio says with the pervasive reality of chemical use, especially in fracturing and production of oil and gas products, companies appreciate the reduced hazards and the increased safety aspects, the potential for reducing incidents of fire and explosion as well as preventing equipment and machinery corrosion and degradation.

“The safety is due to our products’ vapor suppression combined with strong cleaning ability,” he adds. “Products like Crystal Simple Green have been used in the cleaning, maintenance and replacement of fuel storage tanks and we have particular heavy usage taking place in Australian mines.”

Both Crystal and Extreme Simple Green are used globally on offshore platforms and onshore refining, handling the cleaning of heavy-duty cleaning of storage vessels, valve stems, manifolds and pipelines. Simple Green Hand Cleaner Gel, Lime Scale Remover and other formulations and equipment also have been found to be beneficial for use throughout the petroleum industry.

The products are unique in offering the best combination of efficacy, economy, safety, and light environmental footprint to an industry that has the greatest challenges when it comes to keeping things clean. The flagship Simple Green All-Purpose product has gone mainstream into sites across the globe, and has been listed on the US EPA National Contingency Plan as a surface washing agent for oil spill cleanup since 1990.

“We also have experience in supplying information to various government agencies that certify the chemical products used in these industries. For most areas of the world we have representatives and distributors that assist us in submitting the proper documentation for compliant usage.”

Because Simple Green is a cleaning product company, and not an equipment manufacturer, they have teamed up with equipment makers to provide customized branded equipment that facilitates the cleaning process.

“We have worked with our equipment manufacturing partners on minor design modifications to address customer needs, but by and large they were already quite expert at designing and producing equipment to make the use of our products easier and more effective,” says Fabrizio. “We continually look at the equipment offerings within the US to determine if there are additional partnerships that would benefit our customers.”

Visitors to the GPS are invited to visit the Simple Green booth for demonstrations on how the products can address specific industry cleaning needs as well as applicable testing and documentation to support credentials.

Today, HEINZMANN systems and components are used worldwide in thousands of applications on diesel, gas and dual-fuel engines, as well as on gas, water and steam turbines. With a full range of components, ranging from actuators to regulators and sensors through to communication accessories, HEINZMANN offers complete product ranges in all areas. “With our approach of providing “Everything from a single source”, we make it easier for users to network electronic components and integrate them into an existing control system,” explains Axel Dieckmann, CSO at HEINZMANN. HEINZMANN has been advancing digitalisation in engine management with innovative product developments, initially in the area of rotational speed regulation.

These also include, among other things, actuators for all types of engine, as original equipment as well as for retrofitting. Together with the new StG EC 15 and StG EC 30 for 15 or 30 Nm, a complete portfolio is available which meets all requirements, from a 30 kW industrial engine through to a 15 MW large-scale engine. The actuators are distinguished by a fast and precise mode of operation, as well as by absolute reliability and durability.

HEINZMANN also offers a comprehensive range for the management of industrial gas engines, with a selection that ranges from modular single components to integrated engine management systems. This includes a series of annular gap gas mixers, which has just been completed.

Gas mixers are important components in mixture control systems which ensure that the desired ratio of gas to air is maintained. With diameters from 30 to 100 millimetres, the current selection covers a power range from 100 up to approx. 500 kW. The annular gaps are variable in wide ranges and permit precise adjustment of the air/combustion gas mixture ratio for different types of gas. The Venturi-based gas-mixing duct has favourable flow characteristics for the gas/air mixture and guarantees

minimal pressure losses for maximum efficiency.

A highlight among the innovations to be presented by HEINZMANN at the Global Petroleum Show is the second generation of MEGASOL 425 gas injection valves.

New and up-to-date generations of engine with improved power and increased efficiency while simultaneously reducing emissions require correspondingly enhanced gas valves. The new generation of MEGASOL 425 valves meets these requirements thanks to very low leakage and short switching times. Furthermore, it is characterised by low shot-to-shot variation as well as by precise metering of even the smallest of injection quantities. The MEGASOL 425 valves also provide a high opening pressure without time-consuming pressure equalisation. They are also distinguished by a simple and cost-effective service concept and a long service life.

Honeywell Process Solutions announced availability of the Experion® Orion Console, an advanced display technology that brings the plant control room of the future to life by meeting the changing needs of the increasingly mobile plant operator.

It was unveiled at the 2014 Honeywell Users Group Symposium in San Antonio, Texas.

The console – which builds on Honeywell’s flagship Experion Process Knowledge System (PKS) control platform – features an improved ergonomic design and better displays to simplify control system management, reduce operator fatigue and improve situational awareness.

The Experion Orion Console’s design was based on operator input gleaned from numerous visits to plant control rooms around the world and across industries, in both newer and older plants.

The design and capabilities are the result of behavior observations, as well as insights collected in multiple phases at plants, including process startups and during periods of abnormal operations.

“The state of plant control today is like putting operators on a sleepless, 12-hour flight in economy-class seating and then asking them to make a critical decision that impacts their company’s production and employee safety,” said Jason Urso, chief technology officer, Honeywell Process Solutions. “Operators need more than just process data to make a decision like that; they need an environment that helps keep them alert, allows them to move about more freely, and presents information more intuitively. The Experion Orion Console was designed with all of those factors in mind.”

The console’s features include a large flexible, ultra-high definition display that provides clear status assessments of process operations in a single glance for better and more-informed management.

This flexibility also enables operators to customize displays for context-specific process issues, and incorporates advanced alarm management and pan and zoom capabilities. Limits and targets are directly integrated into overview displays, allowing operation of the process closer to the optimum and allowing operators an increased scope of responsibility across the industrial facility.

Touch panel displays provide the primary operating interface that better enables operators to quickly and accurately respond to changing conditions and prevent situations that could lead to plant incidents and emergencies.

Aside from the actual information, however, the console has a mobile tablet that also reduces operator fatigue by allowing personnel to move about the control room more freely than before. When paired with wireless-enabled mobile technologies, the system also allows operators to view the same displays on hand-held devices in other areas of the plant.

“Plants must be designed and built according to a company’s specific production needs, but the control rooms themselves should be built around the operators’ needs,” Urso said. “If you meet the operators’ needs, they can manage the plant more effectively and at optimum levels, which ultimately impacts plant safety, reliability and efficiency more than anything else.”

Chromalox Announces Explosion-Proof Certification and Design Patent for Tank Flanged Immersion Heaters Chromalox, a leading manufacturer of electric heat and control products, today announced significant advances for its large and small tank flanged immersion heaters. The CSA Group (CSA) has certified the use of Chromalox small tank flanged heaters (STFX) as explosion proof in hazardous areas, the same certification as for its large tank flanged heaters. This means that both types are approved as explosion proof under applicable standards such as those of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), Underwriters Laboratories (UL), ATEX, CSA, NSF International, and other North American and global organizations.

In addition, the innovative design of its large tank heaters (LTFX) has earned a U.S. patent. Patent protection assures Chromalox customers that the product offers a unique, effective, space-saving design for hazardous locations that can’t be matched by other companies.

“The Chromalox LTFX heaters for large tanks have long set the standard for providing a costeffective, replaceable element design for use in hazardous areas,” said Mark Wheeler, global product director for Packaged Systems & Service. “Now we’ve extended explosion-proof certification to our immersion heaters for small tanks. This broadens their application to many industrial processes and plants where flammable fumes may be present.”

He adds that typical applications range from viscous fluids such as asphalt or Bunker C oil to freeflowing oils such as hydraulic fluids or lube oil. In addition, they can be used for water, water/glycol, alcohols, acidic mixtures, specialty chemicals, alternative fuels and numerous similar liquids.

A chief advantage of these Chromalox immersion tank heaters is that customers never need to drain the tank for heater element service. Chromalox’s unique designs allow for element removal with a completely filled tank. This allows production times to be maximized. In addition, heating elements are made to bend during removal and installation. Users are able to optimize production space, while maintaining easy serviceability.

Powered by electricity, the heaters have no open flames and no pollution, while requiring no additional piping connections. They operate quietly, providing precise temperature control. All styles come

equipped with a standard Type J thermocouple for over-temperature protection. For automated operation, they may be paired with a compatible Chromalox control panel, mounted remotely or directly on the heater. Power ratings range from 1 to 25 kW for the STFX styles and 4 to 240 kW for the LTFX styles.

Multiple designs, lengths, and watt densities meet the requirements of most industrial immersion heating applications for large and small tanks. Standard ANSI 150# flanges range in size from 3- to 14-inch and provide a straightforward mating connection. Custom immersion lengths and flange sizes are available. Aside from third-party CSA certification in the U.S. and Canada, these units are available with ASME design and certification.

Creating Competitive Advantage through Integration Integrating assay knowledge management with process simulation Oil companies must continuously adapt to changing product demand, raw material prices and more importantly, raw material properties which determine how a refinery operates. Significant fluctuations in global, regional, economic and political environments necessitate an agile response to remain profitable. Agile responses to market conditions begin with thoroughly understanding the process.

The best way to understand the process is through simulation. Although, simulation of the process is only as good as the feedstock information.

Engineers have been manually entering crude assay data into their simulations for years. Crude oil property data forms the basis of crude oil descriptions in decision support for trading, planning, and scheduling. Comprehensive, up-to-date, and accurate crude property data is essential for business processes since the property data can differ not only between oil fields, but also vary from cargo to cargo from a single oil field. Meaning that what you processed last year from the same field could be completely different and operating on old data can lead to inefficient and ineffective processing.

Using the complete and most recent assay data in the simulation provides the most accurate results.

However, engineers are typically overwhelmed with data on specific crudes. Often, not all the data available for the feedstock makes it into the simulation and the data that does get manually entered in is subject to data entry errors. Improper data input yield in bad results which can prove very costly to the refinery. Therefore, integrating crude assay knowledge management databases with simulations has a tremendous impact on the bottom line by providing the complete and most recent assay data to the whole organization. Using actual crude assay data provides more accurate simulations, enabling superior process design and process optimization.

Integration allows oil companies to evaluate potential feedstocks using accurate models of their refining operations and automated market data feeds to judge the impact of each potential feedstock. This allows the business to adapt almost immediately, by selecting one feedstock over another or modifying the process to take advantage of alternative, more cost effective feedstocks. The risks, economic effects and refinery implications can be synchronized in real time and evaluated by traders, planners and schedulers.

This integrated approach improves productivity by sharply reducing today’s communication issues and by improving timely decision making based on common and accurate data sources.

Tackling Corruption Risk: Practical Solutions to Operational Challenges

By Margaret Wilkinson, Head of Corruption and Risk Management, CKR Global The World Bank’s estimate that up to $1 trillion in business bribes are paid globally each year[1] is a wake up call for North American companies. In response to increased pressure from the public and multilateral institutions, Canada’s legislature has recently made important changes to the country’s anti-bribery laws.

Now, Canadian companies operating or trading overseas are subject to greater scrutiny and regulatory pressure than ever with much of this attention focusing on the energy sector. Risks of significant penalties and increased enforcement have become hot topics of discussion in boardrooms across the country as organizations struggle to fully understand the regulations and the real costs of bribery and corruption, as well as their responsibilities for compliance.

An increase in the number of RCMP investigations indicates Canadian companies have a long way to go in understanding and mitigating their bribery and corruption risks. The RCMP is actively enforcing the Corruption of Foreign Public Officials Act (CFPOA), and claims to have more than 35 open investigations. Two specialized RCMP units focus exclusively on bribery and corruption with one of these task forces stationed in Calgary, the heart of Canadian oil and gas industry, with the other centered in Ottawa. The RCMP’s enforcement record and presence in Calgary suggest that the energy sector will remain a priority. In the last two years, Canadian authorities have secured two fines of approximately $10 million each and levied the first conviction of an individual under the CFPOA.

The True and Hidden Costs of Bribery and Corruption In addition to legal and regulatory ramifications, investors and industry observers view corruption issues as an indicator of poor governance, weak corporate culture, and inadequate or ineffective controls. While multi-million dollar fines may grab headlines, they

are often dwarfed by other costs of a corruption investigation. Legal and accounting fees, the cost of compliance with a probation order, debarment from the World Bank and ancillary institutions, class action lawsuits, and delayed stock offerings can be much more costly than a fine.

inheriting liability for historical corruption issues. Issues that may not otherwise come to light can be unearthed with the increased intense scrutiny by civil society, self-reporting of other companies, and periodic industry sweeps by regulators.

Real World Anti-Bribery and Corruption (ABC) Solutions

Canadian oil and gas companies face unique operational challenges and exposure to corruption risk.

Following the announcement of a corruption investigation, it often takes several months or even years for a public company’s stock price to bounce back. Board members and executive officers are increasingly being held accountable for corruption issues within their businesses – not just for active involvement but for inaction as well.

Canadian oil and gas companies face unique operational challenges and exposure to corruption risk. Use of local agents and partners, negotiating with foreign governments and state-owned entities, and high value export and customs processes are but a few key risk areas confronting organizations with overseas interests. Securing high-value concessions and navigating indigenization policies pose additional risks to international oil and gas companies, which often do business in countries where corruption is systemic. In an industry where growth through acquisitions is commonplace, companies risk

To mitigate bribery and corruption risks, anti-corruption developments must be continuously monitored to identify key risk areas.

As with other risk areas, prudent preventative measures can protect companies and their directors from costly and extremely damaging consequences of corruption. Having adequate anti-corruption procedures reduce risk and liability, which often extends to a company’s directors and executives. Once in place, an ABC program needs to be effectively communicated throughout the organization, tested, and adapted as a business evolves.

Canadian energy companies must consider these steps as they manage their corruption risk: 1. Do your due diligence: Fully understand your business affiliates and subsidiaries – this applies to acquisition targets, agents, and partners. The depth of your due diligence should depend upon the risk profile of that entity or individual.

AGC Chemicals Americas Displays Innovation in Polymeric Products for Downhole Oil Applications Electric submersible pumps (ESPs) have replaced gas lift and other artificial lift technologies as the tool of choice for cost-effective heavy oil production in steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) and steam-flooding applications. ESPs are now the choice, in large part, thanks to super-tough coatings (bladders) that allow them to withstand bottomhole conditions.

AFLAS® fluoroelastomers are the key to creating ESP bladders and other polymeric products that can withstand the temperature, pressure and corrosive elements inherent to oil recovery.

AFLAS fluoroelastomers are copolymers of tetrafluoroethylene and propylene. This combination gives AFLAS fluoroelastomers unique properties over conventional FKM-type fluoroelastomers. In subsea wells these characteristics help oil producers by extending the down-the-hole life of ESPs. For example, imparting flexibility and high-temperature tolerance to bladder designs helps reduce the differential pressure between the well bore and the motor, allowing mechanical seals and the pothead area to last longer.

ESP systems are just one application where AFLAS fluoroelastomers from AGC Chemicals Americas are improving oil & gas production and helping reduce downtime in critical situations.

AFLAS products also impart outstanding chemical and heat resistance to many oilfield and downhole items such as packings, O-rings, seals, gaskets, sensor parts, and wire and cable coatings.

Classified by ASTM D 1418-01 as FEPM, AFLAS fluoroelas-

tomers in compounds yield products that excel in the amine- and base-rich environments commonly found in oil and gas exploration, completion and production.

The mechanical properties of AFLAS do not deteriorate even when used for prolonged exposure to 200°C (392°F).

AFLAS 100 series products are well suited for applications in oil-drilling fields because their high molecular weights impart durability in extremely severe, high-temperature, high-pressure environments. This line delivers outstanding performance in compression set, high strength, and excellent H2S gas resistance, making it well suited to durable packers, bladders, gaskets and O-rings.

The AFLAS 150 series is well suited to extruded parts such as wire insulation and cable jacketing, and for transfer-molded items like sensor parts.

“AFLAS materials have been successfully used in a wide range of oil & gas applications delivering technical reliability, dependable performance and proven results for many years,” said Drew D’Agosta, AGC sales and marketing manager for AFLAS. “Our customers trust our products and are confident when selecting AFLAS for their applications. Our presence in the oil & gas

Doosan Portable Power Introduces L20: Powerful Illumination Doosan Portable Power is introducing the L20, a light tower and 20kW generator combined — providing the convenience and power of two machines in one package. The L20 light tower is perfect for illuminating jobsites in mining, oil and gas exploration applications, while the 20kW generator provides power for tools, heaters and more. The two-in-one packaging eliminates the need for another machine in the often tight quarters in mining, and oil and gas sites.

The L20 stands at 7”10” tall, with a six-section, hydraulically-actuated vertical mast that extends to a full height of 25” 3” in less than 30 seconds. The units’ four, 1000-watt metal halide light fixtures can be adjusted horizontally, vertically, and separately of one another with an easy to use locking pin system that provides simple, fluid movement in each lamp. With its four outriggers deployed, the L20 is a model of durability, able to withstand winds up to 65 miles per hour.

The L20 is powered by an Isuzu 4LE2 engine, with a single phase Leroy Somer alternator with AREP, for greater motor starting capability. Proving power doesn’t have to mean loud, the L20 provides reliable, quiet operation at just 70 dBA. Uptime is maximized on the L20 with the industry’s largest fuel tank for its class size – a 70-gallon tank that provides 57 hours of uninterrupted operation at full load.

The model comes standard with a 110% containment system, and includes a removable panel for radiator fill, a hooded exhaust cover and central drains.

Included within the enclosure is storage space for each lamp, helping provide protection during transport. Further protection for the model is offered by a black, textured paint, which covers the hydraulic cylinder, curly cord and platform, helping protect the system from the rigors of rugged jobsites.

Transportation is made easy with a removable drawbar that allows for more space once the unit is on site.

industry has grown significantly as a result. It’s our mission to continue exceeding customer expectations with value-add, high-performance materials.”

The Owen Tools’ X-SPAN Casing Patch TM

By Bernie Jones, Owen Oil Tools, a Division of Core Laboratories Ltd.

X-SPAN shown isolating perforations

The Owen Oil Tools’ X-SPAN™ Casing Patch system provides a heavy-duty permanent seal over splits, corrosion and perforations in tubing or casing and they are ideal for water shut off and zonal isolation. The metal-to-metal X-SPAN™ seal is engineered for high temperature applications while yielding the highest burst and collapse pressure ratings in the industry.

They can be deployed in horizontal, monobore, multilateral, slim hole, SAGD or geothermal well bores. These patches can be run on electric wire, tubing or coil tubing and are set with a pressure setting tool (electric, mechanical or hydraulic). Well interventions may be performed on flowing or static wells.

Patches can be customized for most well applications including premium alloys, restrictions and geothermal wells. Since the systems are modular, various patch lengths can be obtained by adding tubular extensions or sections. We currently offer three types of X-SPAN™ systems: the standard X-SPAN™, the stackable STX-SPAN™ and the GTX-SPAN™. The advanced technology of the GTX-SPAN™ utilizes a specially engineered elastomer seal that is conveyed on an expandable element similar to our standard system.

“Minimal surface equipment requirements for our X-SPAN™ systems and minimal rig down time can often result in tremendous savings for our customers” Both the standard X-SPAN™ and the GTX-SPAN™ patches are one trip systems that can save valuable time and money, and up to 91m (300ft.) in length can be deployed in one run.

The X-SPAN™ system consists of three basic components; a top element and swage, a tubular extension and a bottom element and swage. During the setting process, the pressure setting tool exerts a pushing force on the top swage and a pulling force on the bottom swage. Both swages are driven into the metal sealing elements, which then expand creating a metal-to-metal seal to the casing bore. At a predetermined force, a calibrated weak point shears and the setting process ceases. A collapsible set-

“The reliability and quality of our product has been proven many times worldwide with thousands of individual jobs being completed” ting collet located in the bottom swage, retracts and allows the setting tool and the setting equipment to be retrieved. Minimal surface equipment requirements for our X-SPAN™ systems and minimal rig down time can often result in tremendous savings for our customers. Although designed as a permanent patch the Owen X-SPAN system is easily removable.

The reliability and quality of our product has been proven many times worldwide with thousands of individual jobs being completed.

PATCH WORK IN THE FIELD In Alberta, a popular style multi-stage well with ball activated frac ports was jeopardized when a shallow frac port was opened prematurely. An X-SPAN casing patch was run on coil tubing to straddle and seal off the open frac port. The large ID allowed drop balls to pass so all deeper stages could be frac’d successfully. Treatment pressures reached 58Mpa (8500psi) and the patch held while multiple stages were frac’d through it.

Also in Alberta on a multi-stage well, a cement stage tool in the heel of the well did not close properly and was leaking.

An X-SPAN casing patch was run on tubing to straddle and seal off the stage tool. A total of 11 stages were frac’d through the X-SPAN patch system and a maximum of 30 tons of proppant per/stage was pumped at a maximum pressure of 53mpa (7700psi) and at a maximum rate of 10m3/min (2640 gallons/min). In total 1588.5m3 of fluid and 223.5 tons of sand were successfully pumped through the patch and everything worked perfectly.

Timken® Sheave Pac® Schneider Electric Releases Process Bearing Increases Automation Modules That fit into Safety on Oil Rigs Tighter Spaces Sealed-for-life bearing improves uptime

The Timken Company introduced a bearing that helps increase safety and improve uptime on oil rigs. The Timken® Sheave Pac® is featured in Timken booth #4311 The Timken Sheave Pac bearing assembly is designed to eliminate the need to re-grease the traveling block or crown block on oil rigs. In the past, maintenance personnel performed the challenging task of re-lubricating the crown and traveling blocks situated hundreds of feet above the rig platform. The Timken Sheave Pac alleviates that job through its sealed-for-life sheave bearing assembly, helping to increase safety for rig workers and reduce expensive downtime.

“This solution to the unique needs of oil rig operators is another example of how we exceed our customers’ expectations” The pre-greased, pre-set and unitized Timken Sheave Pac can eliminate the need for re-greasing the bearing because Timken engineers designed the bearing assemblies to run an entire operating cycle between rebuild without the need for re-lubrication or additional maintenance. The Sheave Pac assembly easily interchanges with current industry-standard bearing assemblies and seals.

“This solution to the unique needs of oil rig operators is another example of how we exceed our customers’ expectations,” said Evan Boere, Timken business development manager in Canada.

This product has been operating successfully for the past two years under an exclusive customer agreement but is now available for sale to the marketplace. For more information, visit www. timken.com/sheavepac.

The new modules will help with new implementations in con- duction efficiency. fined spaces, such as offshore platforms, and for adding capacity to existing installations without incurring the trouble and cost of facility expansion.

Higher-density baseplates and optional cabinets add even more to footprint reduction, while lowering the weight ratio, energy consumption and inventory over traditional I/O offerings.

“Cabinet space in the industrial world is always an issue. For example, our top industry experts have calculated that space on an offshore platform can be valued at tens of thousands of dollars per square foot or more, so anything we can return to operators is money in their pockets,” says Thad Frost, director of fieldbus product management at Schneider Electric.

He adds that customers can preserve their existing equipment as well as reap additional cost savings and a higher return on investment.

The systems are also compatible with multiple generations of Foxboro controllers, software and infrastructure, so mixing and matching on the same controller is possible.
