  • Diaphragms enhance gas production
    Horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing technologies grant access to natural gas encased in shale formations. However, this is just the start of overcoming challenges associated with a shale well’s 20 plus year life expectancy. New diaphragm pump technology from Neptune Pump Company is providing solutions to the harsh realities of shale well production.

  • Quality inspection from a single source
    In oil and gas pipes, the quality of the root pass of a weld is critical to the structural integrity of the girth weld. Optical Metrology Services Limited (OMS) discusses how video inspection and internal weld scanning tools are being used to check weld quality on pipes and other deep sea subsea oil and gas structures.

  • Widethroat offers waste oil solution
    An unwelcome by product of the oil production process is solid waste and waste oil. One option is to bury it and risk the consequential impact on the environment. However, another option is to incinerate the waste and this is just what happened at a site in Papua, New Guinea. Here we tell how a Mono Widethroat Waste Oil Incinerator Feed progressing cavity (pc) pump reduced the environmental impact of a waste plant.

  • South America for growth and diversity
    One of the biggest areas of growth for the pump industry over the last two decades has been in the South American and Latin American markets, particular in the oil and gas, mining and power generation industries. This expansion is partly thanks to the NAFTA agreement, changes in customs regulations and the desire of major manufacturers to diversify. Keith Loria reports.
  • Sanitary Drum Unloading Solutions
    Installing a Drum Unloading System can help to prevent hazardous processes effects due to potential employee injury and food safety. It also will save time and money thanks to the recent advancements to the Drum Unloading System by Graco.
  • Low sulphur fuels cause viscosity woes
    The EU directive calling for the use of marine fuels with a far lower sulphur content is causing pump manufacturers to examine how pumps that rely on the lubrication provided by heavier fuels can comply with this legislation. One rotary pump specialist has responded by redesigning its triple screw pump.
