Energy production technology services company Proserv has designed a green panel for well operations.Â
The panel offers realistic, fit-for-purpose functionality for oil well operations and reduces environmental waste, energy usage and related emissions.
The technology has been verified as having a 20% saving on environmental impact after undergoing inspection by TUV Rheinland Group, a global-body for the certification of safety and quality for products, services and management systems.
The solar-powered panel was developed by Proserv’s MENA engineering team and includes a reduced backup battery capable of providing all the power needed to operate in case of three consecutive no-sun days.
Andrew Anderson, Proserv’s regional president for MENA, said: “The Energy Efficient Wellhead Control Panel offers a significant step change for the industry with Proserv believed to be the first company to approach the use of oil and gas technology from an environmental and renewable energy perspective.”
The panel also features an electrical load requirement which has been reduced without compromising design, a decreased number of compartments and leakage paths which lowers the potential for operational failure and an overall solar system design which has been reduced from 190 peak watts to 50 peak watts. Biodegradable hydraulic oil was also been used within this design.
David Lamont, Proserv’s chief executive officer, said: “The development of lean technology incorporating standard components and a lighter, simplified design is essential for fast and more cost-effective delivery.”
