DIONIX mobile water treatment technology is newly announced to treat hydraulic fracturing pre-frac, flowback, or fresh water. The patented technology has processed more than
200 million barrels of produced and flowback water in the past 18 months.
DIONIX uses a two-precursor chemical process to produce chlorine dioxide, rather than
a three precursor. The two-precursor chemical process is said to be the safest way to
produce chlorine dioxide on-site — directly where operators need it. It kills 100% of all
bacteria in water and is also EPA-recognized as a green biocide.
Water treatment reaction time is immediate. All bacteria are eliminated from the water
within seconds. The process does not generate trihalomethanes, does not affect fluid pH,
change the oxidation rate of iron (Fe2 to Fe3), and does not chlorinate. It is not corrosive
to preserve pipelines and wells eliminate costly repairs plus preserve pipe from corrosion.
It also prevents fouling a well by acids and/or bacteria growth.
Water from fracturing operations is exposed to many naturally-occurring microbial con-
taminants which can cause souring, corrosion, or plugging in pipelines and injection wells,
pumps, and filters, and emulsion problems. Solids, organics, and oil need to be eliminated
to provide water quality that will perform efficiently with the frac package. DIONIX is
formulated to do so — in a cost-effective manner which does not affect the fracing fluid.
By recycling fracing and flowback water — safer operations and more responsible prac-
tices are provided to preserve local communities surrounding production sites.

Anti-corrosion clamps protect against crevice corrosionFor use with stainless
steel tube and pipe, ACT
Anti Corrosion Tech-
nology Clamps protect
against crevice corrosion
in salt water or other cor-
rosive environments.
Designed for both top-
side and underwater ap-
plications, they guard
against crevice corrosion
when seawater is trapped
in gaps between conven-
tional clamps and pipe or
tube.
ACT Clamps utilize
anti-corrosion elastomer
strips to firmly hold tube
as they eliminate gaps
through which seawater
can penetrate. Integrated
drainage channels allow
seawater to flow freely.
This construction elimi-
nates stagnant pools that
cause corrosion. Complete ACT Anti Corrosion Technol-

Advertiser Profle: Volga-Dnepr completes support PNG LNG projectIn one of its biggest-ever air logistics projects, Volga-Dnepr Airlines has safely com-
pleted 88 cargo fights carrying over 6,000 tons of equipment in 103 days to supply the ExxonMobil-operated PNG LNG Project.
The airline’s AN-124-100 aircraft operated all of the fights from Port Moresby Airport to the PNG LNG Project’s newly constructed Komo Airfeld. They carried equipment for the project’s Hides Gas Conditioning Plant in the highlands of Papua New Guinea.
With each component averaging 60 tons — including unique and oversized shipments requiring individual handling solutions — Volga-Dnepr’s engineers created a special loading process to carefully place the equipment pieces into the cargo hold. Additional work was conducted to minimize empty weight of the aircraft, tooling and packaging equipment to maximize opportunities offered by the freighter’s cargo capacity. For these fights, special loading equipment was developed and manufactured by Volga-Dnepr plus a special trailer was leased to simplify the cargo loading/offoading to reduce the need to use cranes. This reduced the time required to load and offoad cargo. Volga-Dnepr also developed solutions to ensure the appropriate aircraft maintenance at Port Moresby airport during the 103 day project.
Dennis Gliznoutsa, Vice President, Development at Volga-Dnepr Airlines, said: “This proj-ect was complex and an interesting logistics challenge. Papua New Guinea is a country that has challenging climatic conditions, including highlands with frequent fog. We are proud to have successfully and safely completed this project by overcoming all diffculties and by once again demonstrating our expertise in the safe delivery of unique and outsize cargo.”

From the editor . . . Two trade exhibitions in one week, our annual Oil & Gas
Maintenance Special, plus additional new products and ser-
vices — what we offer you in this Octo-ber OG&PE. Our thanks for opening the pages literally or digitally.
Last month I had the privilege and challenge of attending SPE’s ATCE Ex-
hibition in New Orleans, then zipping away after a day and a half to Houston for Texas A&M’s Pump & Turbomachin-
ery Tradeshow.
Both were outstanding events. You’ll see a representation of each exhibition with our traditional “Followups” begin-ning on Page 12 for SPE ATCE and Page 16 for Pump & Turbomachinery. A wide and interesting array of new equip-ment and services have been developed, improved or modi-fed for upstream and downstream operations. I hope you wil enjoy the followsups.
In them are some exceptional developments including FMC Technologies & Sulzer Pumps’ subsea boosting sys-
tem. I saw an actual size replica at Offshore Technology Conference this year and marvel at both its sheer size and advanced technologies implemented by the two companies.
Our Oil & Gas Maintenance Special Report kicks off on the cover with DIONIX mobile water treatment from Bosque for fracing along with mobile fshing/milling capabilities from Drilliog Services of America, anti-corrosion clamps from STAUFF, and paraffn control via Ener-Tec’s linear kinetic
cell — all worth reading — possibly asking for free info if you are involved in these oil and gas disciplines.
I also direct you to the left bottom of this page for an inter-esting Volga-DNEPR logistics success for ExxonMobil’s LNG project. I’ve seen these transports taking on cargo in Tulsa. Amazing their mammoth size and the huge cargo they load.
OG&PE’s Social Media Communities surpassed 10,000 membership last month. We thank each of you who have joined us on Twitter, LinkedIn and Facebook. This past month we also added Google+ to our platform and are now sharing product and oil industry news there as well.

CSA Intl. ATEX-exempt compressed air dryersParker Balston Membrane Compressed Air
Dryers are announced as exempt from the
EU ATEX Directive by CSA International.
The products are declared non-elec-
trical with no moving mechanical com-
ponents. Air movement with the product
is not likely to produce static as an ig-
nited hazard...there is not enough energy
around to cause an ignition.
Membrane air lowers an air stream’s
dewpoint without electricity or moving
parts. This permits use in fammable and
hazardous environments where explosions
or fres are a concern.
The drying systems produce a guaran-
teed 35°F. and lower dewpoint as they remove all other compressed air contami-
nants down to 0.01-micron size. They dehydrate air without the need for electric-
ity. The wall-mountable designs are easily confgured to ft in most tight areas to
outperform conventional air fltration, declares the manufacturer.

Fused nano system, tech’y protects metal, enhances performancePatented Fused Armor penetrates into metal substrate mi-
cro voids to deliver overall metal strength and to increase
hardness up to 120%. It provides corrosion and biofoul-
ing protection to steel pipelines and subsea equipment
and is “not a paint, coating, anodizing, or plating,” it’s
announced.
The water-based, environmentally friendly technology is
fused to metal. It creates a hard, dense protective shell as
“an impregnable barrier stronger than the metal substrate
it protects,” according to the developer. It guards against
moisture, salts, acids, base chemicals, oxidation, or other
forms of corrosion. It also offers lubricity, ductility, and
electrical resistance over -360° to +1,200°F.
Curing process allows all inorganic ingredients to fow
deep into metal material pores, fusing (anchoring) it to
become one with metal. The shell keeps the metal in a
constant state of compression to strengthen it — creating
a solid protective cocoon.

Process monitor + fail-safe shutdown relays introducedHardware-based Watchdog Relay monitors and provides fail-safe shutdown of processes con-
trolled by RTUs, PLCs, or other automation devices. It’s announced to “help proactively protect
unmanned processes on a 24/7 basis.”
The automation design monitors pulsing output heartbeat of a connected device to add extra
safety in oil and gas operations. If the heartbeat stops (power surges, extreme weather, device
malfunctions) Watchdog’s built-in Form C relay immediately energizes. It delivers a signal for
safe process shutdown. The signal sent upon loss of control helps avoid costly materials and
equipment damage. Since Watchdog Relay has no software to lock-up or fail — it is particularly
applicable on valves, pipelines, heavy machinery, or other critical items.

Oxygen analyzers are new, compact tonote content to better than 1% of spanXZR200 Oxygen Analyzers are on the market to measure percent
oxygen content to better than 1% of span.
Without special software, models are easy to install and in-
tegrate into existing systems — with RS232 output directly ac-
cessible by PC. Four confguration options are available with two
probe lengths and two temperature ranges. The higher +400°C.
range serves combustion control and metal treating.
A key XZR200 feature: 3.3-v dc logic output to diagnostically
monitor its zirconium dioxide sensor. It listens to sensor ‘heart-
beat’ so you can check sensor health — with warning if there is a
fault with the sensor — which has a lifespan between 1 and 7 years depending on
temperature and type of gas measured.

Diesel generator bi-fuel cost cutting systemsThis company’s 150 kw to 3-MW generators are announced to incorpo-rate Altronic LLC GTI Bi-Fuel Systems for reduced diesel generator fuel expense.
HIPOWER will install systems in its standby, prime power, and rental
generators. It can also retroft existing engines on its generators. With the newly incorporated system, diesel engines can burn a gas-diesel
mixture of up to 70% natural gas to reduce fuel costs as much as 50%, it’s declared. “The savings are so signifcant — operators can recapture the cost of the add-on — and its installation — in as little as a few months. Some operators report savings $1-million/year,” it’s reported. The system allows any diesel engine to incorporate natural gas into the fuel mixture through the air intake without making any changes to underlying OEM equipment. System design and air-gas mixture combustion characteristics are reported to provide engine response to — and some-times better than — 100% diesel performance.

Deck hammers and walk-behindfloor planers/scarifiers remove substancesfrom large, flat areas such as decks,walkways and hatch covers, achievingvarying degrees of finish. Pneumatic deckhammers fracture and reduce scale, corrosion and thick coatingsin minutes and reduce blast media costs. Spark-resistant headsare available for use in hazardous areas. Floor planers utilize arevolving drum with cutters of varying material to remove rustand paint as they rotate: tungsten carbide tips for moreaggressive applications; hardened steel beam or star cutters forremoval of light paint and mastics; wire brushes clean and polishsteel surfaces.

signed for suspension operations in the Gulf of Mexico
and other deepwater tasks.
These plugs are designed to “provide the assurance
of an absolute seal independently certifed as gas tight
under ISO 14310 V0,” announces its manufacturer. Its
technology includes 10,000-psi-rated ball valve quali-
fed in accordance with ISO 28281.
The new gas-tight designs support up to 300-metric-
tons of pipe. Enhanced sealing technology delivers a
safe, gas-tight solution for storm-induced short or long
suspensions and harsh conditions. It’s quickly deployed
and easily retrieved for effcient rig time usage and fex-
ibility in terms of depth and deviation. The plugs do not
require weight below to set, so they can be set shallow,
deep, or even in horizontal sections, and in non-storm
applications.
STORMLOCK is especially applicable when sealing
wells for suspension or abandonment barrier failure
could prove disastrous for rig teams, local environ-
ments, and an operator’s reputation.

Subsea boosting system will put “more energy on the mudline” inFMC Technologies, Sulzer Pumps product/technology collaborationDeveloped in a collaborative effort between FMC Technologies and Sulzer Pumps — a powerful new subsea boosting system expected to provide new capabilities for subsea processing.
Rising global demand for petroleum has prompted operators to de-
velop subsea felds in deeper waters and in increasingly remote areas
away from existing infrastructure. New reservoirs under development are
experiencing unusual challenges, while felds already in production are
maturing and encountering issues such as high water cut and low res-
ervoir pressure. This has driven the installation of subsea processing
systems to increase both production and total recoverable reserves.
Rob Perry, FMC Technologies’ Director, Global Subsea Processing,
said these developments have created a demand for even more powerful
subsea boosting systems. “The industry has been very clear. It wants
more energy on the mudline and I am happy to say this subsea boosting
system provides a solution,” he said.
The FMC Technologies and Sulzer Pumps subsea boosting develop-
ment is a helico-axial multiphase pump powered by a 3.2 MW perma-
nent magnet motor (PMM). It is designed to withstand up to 5,000 psi (345 bar). While Perry acknowledges there
are other subsea pumps on the market, he believes none are as powerful or optimized for harsh subsea environments
as the new design.
PMM technology requires less maintenance and provides greater speed, effciency, and power – attributes well
suited to subsea multiphase pumps. It allows for more operational fexibility in subsea processing.
The new pump system is an excellent example of how FMC Technologies is able to leverage its in-house expertise,
while also cooperating with other leading companies to turn market demand into much-needed technology solutions.
Given FMC Technologies’ experience with pumps and boosting stations, the company began a development proj-
ect. At the same time, Sulzer Pumps – a Swiss company recognized for the quality of its multiphase pumps – was
working on a parallel development project with California-based Direct Drive Systems (DDS), which specialized in
compact, high-effciency PMMs. FMC Technologies went on to acquire DDS in 2009.
Costin Ifrim, Manager of Technology at FMC Technologies’ Direct Drive Systems, said while working with compa-
nies based in different locations was a challenge at frst — combined expertise ensured a good result.
“Sulzer Pumps has extensive experience with pumps. FMC Technologies has considerable knowledge of PMM
technology, and expertise in pumps, systems integration and boosting stations. All were vital to the project,” he
noted. “When you have the opportunity to work with experts who have a shared vision, communication is easy.”
FMC Technologies has begun offering the subsea boosting system as an option for new projects with design crite-
ria that meet pump specifcations. The project team is already working to scale the unit up to 6.0 MW.
Additional subsea boosting systems information is free.

2-month battery life on newportable multi gas detectors
MGC Multi Gas Clip multi gas detectors — unlike other
portables — go a full 2 months without a charge —
without ever being turned off. Shut down the unit night-
ly and the battery can last up to 4 months.
MGC uses low-power photometric technology to de-
tect combustible gases. Instead of draining the battery
with pellistor technology — MGC uses a lower power
photo diode infrared source. It conserves power so the
battery lasts and lasts and lasts.
The detectors avoid maintenance fees since “there’s
no need to return and repair the units,” the maker de-
clares. “If there’s ever a problem, call us, and if we
can’t fix it over the phone, send the unit back and we’ll
send you a new one at no charge.”
