HOUSTON, May 5, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Cameron (NYSE:CAM)
and OneSubsea®, a Cameron and Schlumberger (NYSE: SLB) company,
have won Spotlight on New Technology Awards at the Offshore
Technology Conference (OTC) by meeting the criteria for new,
innovative, proven products of broad interest that have significant
impact.
Cameron won an award for its Mark IV High Availability (HA)
Control System for Blowout Preventers (BPs). Cameron's Mark
IV HA control system is the industry's first three-POD control
system. The new system allows drillers to continue operating
when one POD becomes unavailable. Because of this configuration,
the Mark IV HA BOP control system improves operational availability
to as much as 98% and reduces the likelihood of a POD-related stack
pull by up to 73%. This system builds on the success of the
Mark III control system by streamlining the POD design, making it
smaller and lighter as well as increasing functionality.
OneSubsea is an award recipient of the 2015 OTC Spotlight on New
Technology Award for the industry's first true subsea multiphase
compressor. The OneSubsea Multiphase Compressor, delivered to
Statoil in March, is capable of handling compression of the
unprocessed wellstream without any need for pre-processing and no
requirements for an upstream separation facility or an anti-surge
system, which greatly simplifies the subsea system
requirements.
Cameron is a leading provider of flow equipment products,
systems and services to worldwide oil, gas and process
industries.
