Carson aerogravity provides Geophysical survey, processing and interpretation of
data for oil and mining exploration by specially designed helicopters and boats
for aerogravity and aeromagnetic surveys. Sikorsky S-61 and DeHavilland Twin Otter
are two specially designed helicopters for aerogravity surveys. Output of all systems
employed in airborne surveying (gravity meter, magnetometer, positioning system,
altimeters) are recorded digitally and unfiltered on the aircraft for computer processing
using Carson's own processing and mapping software.
Carson builds, modifies, and maintains its own LaCoste & Romberg dynamic gravity
meters at its Gravity Meter Company in Austin, Texas; many patented innovations
are found on Carson's meters including the only 3-axis dynamic stabilization system
for airborne surveys; a complete gravity meter testing laboratory physically tests
new ideas
Carson's Experience
Carson, as the pioneer and market leader in the field, has flown over 1 million
line kms survey flight in about 60 basins for over 90 oil exploration agencies in
the past two and a half decades.
In Asia, Carson has carried out surveys in Turkey, Pakistan, Myanmar,
Malaysia and Indonesia, all in the immediate neighborhood of India, besides a host
of countries in Africa and South and North Americas. Carson along with a few major
oil companies maintains the ground test strip for validating the aerogravity data
as and when required.
NESCOS AS (formerly Triangle Equipment AS) is a provider of advanced downhole well
completion equipment to the international oil and gas industry.
Nescos’s two main products are the MRS flow control sleeve and the NESCOS
smart well system.
Mechanical Rotation Sleeve (MRS)
The "MRS" (Mechanical Rotation Sleeve) is a multi-position
flow control sleeve operated by a shifting tool with a sleeve position read-out.
The MRS system is suitable for water shut-off, coning control, flood
front control, injection and production rate control, production of various GOR/GWR
zones etc., with its adjustable opening, and is, therefore superior to on/off sleeves.
The MRS choke valve is operated by either coiled tubing, wireline
tractor or slickline shifting tool and provides sensor feed-back on sleeve position
Smart well Completion system
NESCOS is an all-hydraulic smart well completion system for flow control in hydrocarbon
producing and water injection wells. NESCOS has several innovative features, such
as rotation sleeve, metal-to-metal sealing and multi-position choke.
The NESCOS (Non Electric Surface Controlled System) smart well valve
is operated hydraulically from the surface.
The NESCOS valve is used for optimizing oil and gas recovery, by selectively
controlling production and injection.
NESCOS is a sophisticated production tool with multi-position regulation
and tailor-made choke.
NESCOS has several innovative features, such as rotation sleeve, metal-to-metal
sealing and hydraulic position feed-back.

ALCO Gas & Oil Production Equipment Ltd. was incorporated in 1972, as closely
held, privately owned Canadian corporation to supply production and processing equipment
to the Canadian and international Oil and Gas industry. During the past 34 years,
ALCO Gas & Oil has designed and fabricated over 6,000 production and process
packages.
ALCO specializes in packaged equipment, ranging from single skid units to interconnected
multiple skid modules for larger gas processing plants and petrochemical systems
The main products include:
LPG
Extraction Plants/Hydrocarbon Dew Point Control Units (5-65 MMSCFD)
These plants are used to remove Liquefied Petroleum Gas (L.P.G.) from the gas stream
and extract a C3+ or C5+ (e.g. 12# RVP) The C3+ product can be further fractionated
to produce C3+, C4+ and C5+ products.
AlCO Gas & Oil has fabricated more than 200 units worldwide The alternatives
for removing the L.P.G. vary from relatively simple Joule Thompson (J.T.) or choke
plants, through refrigeration plants to highly sophisticated packages (such as lean
oil absorption or turbo expander processes), recovering in excess of 90% of the
propane plus components. ALCO Gas & Oil can recommend an optimum design based
on capital cost, operating costs and the time value of money. All of these processes
would include dehydration of the gas stream (and in some instances the liquid hydrocarbon
streams).
Amine/Gas Sweetening Plants (5-65 MMSCFD)
Amine/Gas Sweetening Plants are used to remove acid gas (H2S and CO2) in the well
effluent prior to use. Alco can custom design a plant utilizing the amine that best
suits your process conditions. ALCO Gas & Oil has extensive experience with
MEA, DEA, DGA and MDEA (and MDEA based proprietary amines).
The plants can be custom designed and the alternatives for removing the acid gas
vary from relatively simple MEA and DEA plants to the more sophisticated, selective
solvents such as MDEA (and MDEA based propitiatory amines).
Gas Dehydration
Packages (TEG/MEG) upto 125 MMSCFD
ALCO Gas & Oil's custom designed glycol dehydration package offers a speedy
economical solution for removal of water vapour from your gas stream. Removal of
the water prevents hydrate formation, corrosion and maximizes pipeline efficiency.
There are well over 2000 glycol dehydration packages designed and fabricated by
ALCO Gas & Oil Production Equipment Ltd. in service at this time.
The plants can be custom designed to meet your specific needs with options to increase
efficiency, reduce space requirements, etc. The alternative methods of gas dehydration
include desiccant and calcium chloride packages.
Twister BV offers innovative technologies and services for the global gas processing
industry. The main products are:-
Supersonic Separator:- The Supersonic Separator
is a unique combination of known physical processes, combining aero-dynamics, thermo-dynamics
and fluid-dynamics to produce a revolutionary gas conditioning process. Condensation
and separation at supersonic velocity is the key to achieving a significant reduction
in both capital and operating costs. Supersonic Separator can be used to condense
and separate water and heavy hydrocarbons from natural gas. Applications include
any combination of the following:
Water & Hydrocarbon Dewpointing (Dehydration) – above 120
MMSCFD
Natural Gas Liquids extraction (NGL/LPG) – above 65 MMSCFD
No chemicals - eliminating chemical logistics, storage, regeneration
and recovery systems.
Closed system - no environmental emissions (e.g. BTX).
Compact and low weight design.
No rotating parts - eliminating lubrication systems.
Simple and reliable - ensuring a high availability, enabling unmanned
operation and improving safety performance.
Near instant start-up.
Higher Natural Gas Liquid (NGL) extraction resulting in improved revenue
streams.
Significant capital and operating expenditure savings.
Twister dehydration and dewpointing enables dry, single-phase export, eliminating
many flow assurance risks and limitations associated with wet, multiphase export
systems making it suitable option for subsea gas processing.
The benefits of subsea applications are:-
Thermtech is a Norwegian company and the owner and supplier of the Thermomechanical
Cutting Cleaner (TCC) technology, a patented and advanced thermal desorption technology
able to treat various kinds of oily sludge. Thermtech uses TCC for treatment of
Oil drilling waste. TCC cleans the waste using evaporation to separate fluids from
the cutting, a thermal desorption technology different from conventional systems,
which transfer heat indirectly from large surfaces that are heated by steam, hot
oil or heat tracing.
In TCC, the waste is heated by transforming kinetic energy to heat by friction.
The highly efficient TCC evaporates water and oil in a fraction of exposure time
required in indirect dryers, minimizing thermal degradation of the base oil, thus
enabling this valuable product to be reused. Dry solid discharged from TCC has <200
ppm oil content, recovered oil has <1% water content and recovered water has
<100 ppm oil content. It is the Best Available Technique (BAT) for drill-cutting
treatment. TCC is a safe, compact, reliable, environment-friendly, easy to re-locate
and hassle-free thermal desorption technology.
As a consequence of the small footprint and the inherent safety, the TCC is probably
the only thermal technology that can be operated on board a drilling rig. Thus,
the base oil can be recovered for re-use at rig site. TCC’s capacity is dependent
upon the amount of water in the waste e.g. a “3 ton per hour” unit will
have that capacity with solids/water/oil ratio of 70/15/15 (by weight) and will
have a main motor/engine of approximately 700kW. If the water content is lower,
the capacity of the same unit will be higher than three tons per hour.
