Spotlight on New Technology

FMC Technologies is driving to constantly to meet our customers’ execution and technology demands. Developing innovative solutions to achieve higher cost savings, a safer working environment, and improving on-time delivery are exemplified in some of our newly designed systems.

With global energy demands climbing at a staggering rate, the oilfield is facing new challenges that require a tremendous amount of teamwork to overcome. As the leading wellhead equipment provider, FMC Technologies understands the value of teamwork. FMC’s performance in the Ekofisk growth area, from its origin in 1974 until present-day 2006, represents our ability to meet and exceed our customers’ expectations. Ekofisk, containing two major fields (Ekofisk and Eldfisk) in the North Sea, operates ten of its platforms using FMC’s surface wellheads. From the first platforms to the most recent, FMC has worked with ConocoPhillips to engineer the most safe, efficient, and technologically advanced systems utilized for offshore surface platforms.

Technology at FMC goes hand-in-hand with the operator. The recent development of two Side by Side wellheads, that for the first time have been desinged for 13-5/8” 10,000 psi (on the Eldfisk 2/7-B platform), will allow COPNo to recover two existing slots while doubling their production. This endeavor would not have been possible without the innovation and experiences that developed between FMC and ConocoPhillips; the positive team that evolved over the past 30 years. FMC’s focus is engineering solutions that meet the needs for your entire operation – if you need technology to reach new depths, or responsive service on location; FMC’s job is to meet those goals.
