Photo Contest Winner depictsfracturing water treatment demoThe winner of OG&PE / OGPE.com’s EquipPix Photo Contest is OriginOil’s CLEAN-FRAC 1000 frac water treatment system. Congratulations to OriginOil and thanks to all entrants and vot-ers in this competition. Our other 20 photo contest winners are showcased on Pages 12-13.
CLEAN-FRAC is an Integrated Electro-Coagulation, Electro-Oxi-dation, and Electro-Flotation produced and frac flowback water treatment. It’s shown here in demonstration-scale — as it success-fully removes oil and contaminants from up to 1,000 b/d flowback water. The system has third-party-tested for 99.9% dispersed oil re-duction; 99.5% suspended solids reduction. It is fed directly from an upfront oil-water separator or skim tank to remove emulsified oil and suspended solids fraction of a produced water stream.

Free guide: Measuring sound levels in decibelsA free guide to measuring sounds levels in dB
is now available.It notes the main difficulty in comprehending
dB measurement is its’ log-linear scale. While it is useful to represent very large differences in a more user-friendly scale, it also compresses the scale. Sound is defined as any pressure variation that be be heard by the human ear. Threshold of Hearing is defined as 0 dB; the threshold for pain is around 130 dB — both readily understood, notes the guide.
However, as the power of difference between the two levels is 1013:1 or “ten million million to one,” expressing it in terms becomes challenging. The guide sets sounder output levels in context with everyday examples. It also discusses the effect of frequency on perceived loudness and offers rules-of-thumb for system design and specification of warning sounders.E2S Warning Signals LLC: Houston TX

Single string production packers set on electric line or hydraulicallyAs a modification of ASI-X Packer, VSI-X single string double-
grip production packer can be set on electric line or hydrauli-cally.
An on-off tool stinger with wireline plug installed can be at-tached to the top of this packer, which can then be lubricated in the hole and set under pressure. Once set, casing pressure can be bled off and the tubing with an on-off tool overshot can be run and latched onto the packer. The wireline plug can then be removed.
VSI-X converts to a mechanically set ASI-X by removing the shear screws and installing drag blocks. The packer sets and re-leases with quarter right-hand rotation. It can be left in tension, compression, or neutral.
Among production packer features: wireline or tubing set; se-quentially released upper slip system, bypass valve opens before upper slips are released, and availability in shear release.D&L Oil Tools: Tulsa OKFor FREE Information, select #25 at ogpe.hotims.com

On-site oily water and solids treatment comboENVIRO-SEP Combi-
nation Unit delivers
oily water and solids
treatment on-site and
portably.
As Corrugated Plate
Interceptor (CPI) and
Induced Gas Flota-
tion (IGF) separators,
models are designed to “deliver a cost per barrel
filtered which is the lowest in the industry,” de-
clares the manufacturer.
ENVIRO-SEP utilizes two separation principles.
The CPI side’s compact, stainless steel engineer-
ing allows oily water and solids to be processed
through a series of corrugated plate filtration
compartments. This produces “the cleanest water
allowed for discharge,” it’s said.
Following solids sepration, the IGF side em-
ploys bubble dispersion manipulation to polish
separated oil to a 90 to 97% composite efficiency.

Fall-from-height rescueaiding harnesses offeredNew Personal Rescue
Device is announced
to allow you to “con-
duct your own rescue
immediately after a fall
from height has been
arrested.”
As an integrated har-
ness system, PRD con-
ducts the entire process in seconds: When a fall
occurs the fall protection and harness incorpo-
rated into PRD arrest the fall as normal. You
use a parachute-style cord to activate the de-
scent system. A 20-m spool and brake mecha-
nism gently lowers you to the ground in a con-
trolled descent. Once safely on the ground, the
harness is easily released for quick exit from a
fall zone.
PRD is worn as part of everyday work gear.
It is intuitive and requires no special training.

Riser monitoring for integrity managementThe offshore oil and gas integ-rity management process and data acquisition accuracy are an-nounced to be enhanced with a new Riser Monitoring System.
Its design utilizes a combina-tion of direct riser strain mea-surement, subsea data logging, and riser analysis processing algorithms. These generate accu-rate, real-time operational guid-ance to optimize drilling and workover in up to 100-m water depths.
Riser integrity management via RMS will be beneficial amid heightened sensitivity around health and safety plus project critical risks as-sociated with riser fatigue. It assists precision maintenance activities planning plus combines rapid data acquisition processing and high fi-delity output.
RMS solution is delivered via standard length riser joint which replaces a standard riser joint in the stack up with pre-installed data acquisi-tion and logging hardware. This has virtually zero impact on operations, it’s reported.Aquaterra Energy: Aberdeen ScotlandFor FREE Information, select #35 at ogpe.hotims.com
Grating, deck plate pipe penetrations encircledToeboard links
like this effectively encircle pipe pen-etrations in grating and deck plate.
Designed to give flexibility for en-closing openings in pipe as small as 1 in., the toeboard links provide a standard look around all penetrations. They offer savings compared to their maker’s grating penetration collars.
Unlike welded banding, T5s are maintenance free. Without hot work permit or scaffolding, these links neatly enclose field cut penetrations and are especially useful for rework. They help eliminate the need to weld banding or split oversize pipe too with easy installation (and removal) from the top side of grating.
All molded parts are strong, rigid UV-resis-stant polyurethane that is noncorrosive and for outdoor weatherability.
T5’s manufacturer reports no tensile strength loss after 9 months in Arizona and Florida UV-exposure tests.Intrepid Industries Incorporated:LaPorte TXFor FREE Information, select #38 at ogpe.hotims.com

Spark units = continuous flare stack ignitionDSI-100 Direct Spark
Igniters operate con-tinuously to deliver flare stack ignition — with-out use of fuel normally required by traditional pilots.
Models direct a small stream of flare gas to the igniter shield/spark nozzles. This results in ignition of the igniter as well as the flare. The spark nozzles houses the spark plug that sparks ever 2 sec — regardless of igniter flame temperature.
With DSI-100, flare gas is directed to the same ignition zone. This ensures constant igni-tion, regardless of wind speed, wind direction, or other enviornmental factors. Igniter flame is monitored and proven by a data logger or tem-perature switch. This is said to make DSI-100 the only system compliant with latest Federal regulations.D.B.I.: Bastrop TXFor FREE Information, select #46 at ogpe.hotims.com

Multi-use manual chain & lever hoistKinetic Series manual chain and lever hoists serve a broad range of oil and gas functions.
Minimized user manual effort for overall smooth operation is de-livered via bearing construction: caged ball bearings on the load sprocket and caged roller bearings on the main shaft.
The lever chain hoist is built with a corrosion resistant, fused brake disk for longer brake life plus ergonomic grip to reduce user fatigue.
Models are constructed entirely of lighter-weight steel. They offer 0.25 to 20-metric-ton lifting capacities with low headroom for in-creased lifting height, even in tight spaces.
Kinetic series also includes EZ floor sup-ported crane systems as well as SideKick ultra-compact lever hoists of less than 10-lb weight.Ingersoll Rand: Davidson NCFor FREE Information, select #59 at ogpe.hotims.com
