Pulley alignment tool
DotLine Laser combines V-belt pulley precision alignment with laser leveling in a single hand-held permanently calibrated tool. Tight space is not a limitation as this lightweight, waterproof tool can be attached magnetically to either outside or inside of a pulley. Three "AAA" batteries project a bright fanned laser onto three magnetic targets placed on the opposite pulley allowing the user to view the alignment condition.
Multilateral Technology
Schlumberger has released a brochure with the latest information on robust, fundamental multilateral junction technologies. Build multilateral solutions for your future. Simplify logistics, landing tool confidence, redundant retrieval features, selective access of multiple laterals, applicable in horizontal wells, and compatible with RapidConnect system.
Converting FPSO
Stena Bulk has released a new brochure promoting the Concordia-Class tanker as a prime FPSO or FSO conversion. F(P)SO conversion projects must have a solid base, i.e. a first class hull. Without a solid and well-maintained hull, any conversion project and the subsequent field operation may turn out to be a troublesome and costly exercise. Massive cost overruns and delays during the conversion period and unplanned field delays and shut downs with millions of dollars in lost revenue per day may be the end result. By choosing a Concordia-Class VLCC a customer will avoid these problems and secure a smooth conversion and a reliable production/storage platform for many years to come.
