PRESSURE MONITORING FOR OIL & GAS EXPLORATION & PRODUCTION INCLUDING SUBSEA global. sensor.excel!ence

RELIABLE PRESSURE MEASUREMENT DEMANDS A STRONG CORE TECHNOLOGY A carefully produced pressure sensor is the best prerequisite for accurate measurement results over the entire product life. Pressure transmitters using piezoresistive semiconductor technology are characterized by their high sensitivity and reliability, which is why pressures even in the mbar range can be recorded with great precision. However, when using the appropriate silicon, pressure ranges of > 20,000 psi or 1,500 bar are equally achievable with the same high accuracy and performance. Procedures such as the compensation of...

RELIABLE PRESSURE MEASUREMENT HYDRAULIC CONTROL POD SENSOR FOR SUBSEA Below is a breakdown of a typical subsea sensor highlighting the design and performance specifications. Electronics/Interface Sensor and Electronics Housing Custom designed, hermetically sealed housing of 316L Stainless Steel and other materials. Providing a hyperbaric protection up to 4,500 meters. Options include RS485, CAN, 4–20 mA, 1–5 VDC and others. Glass-to-Metal Seal High pressure glass-to-metal seal to achieve hermetic containment. Process Fitting Custom designed flanges, screw threads and others. Electrical...

There are many very demanding pressure measurements made during the drilling and exploration process in the Oil and Gas industry. Some examples of these are shown alongside. In general, pressure transmitters are required to work at relatively high temperatures and often in high vibration environments. STS has developed products to suit both of these parameters and with their custom packaging capabilities and reputation for long-term installations, should be the company of choice for new applications. One such application is monitoring the Drilling Mud which performs a number of critical...

Applications in topside or land based production where STS transmitters are appropriate: • Wellhead measurements • Subsea pressure measurement • BOP controls • Sucker rod • Submersible pumps Land based and topside production is generally more mature than the offshore industry. High performance monitoring systems continue to be introduced to improve efficiency and reduce production costs. The infrastructure supporting the extraction process includes the distribution of products from offshore locations. For example, this may include intercontinental pipelines and associated compressor...

The illustration alongside shows a typical offshore installation for an operating extraction system. Such installations can be installed on the sea bed as deep as 3,500 meters (11,500 feet). The equipment selected will be exposed to seawater for a very long period and therefore integrity of construction and long-term reliability will be of prime importance. STS has more than 20 years experience in providing high performance precision subsea pressure transmitters which have been customized and used for both control systems and direct mounting onto wellheads. Applications in subsea,...
