There are many different industry sectors in the offshore oil and gas industry

There are many different industry sectors in the offshore oil and gas industry, each of which requires specific knowledge, experience and understanding. However, in today’s environment, there is also a need for a comprehensive understanding of all areas and the ability to make information, developments, products, successes, and failures mutually reinforcing between these sectors. This approach maximizes a company’s ability to deliver innovative technology solutions, enabling it to develop and supply products that take the industry farther and deeper while working faster, smarter, safer, and more cost-effective.

In today’s industry, it is important to understand the needs of specific sectors of the industry and use this understanding in generating solutions that meet those needs. With experience gained in a particular area, companies often focus on that experience and use it to develop existing designs to meet those requirements. However, due to the increasing demand for innovative, yet cost-effective solutions, the ability to seek expertise from other sectors of the industry becomes equally important in an increasingly short time frame to ensure the delivery of preferred technical and commercial solutions, rather than just developing existing devices.

In underwater connector technology, the application of this method achieves key requirements such as correct connector selection application; CAPEX and OPEX models; The importance of new product certification combined with field experience; Realize the value of services and support; The need to reduce the size, weight and cost of equipment and the subsequent need to develop new solutions should not only be examined in isolation but also in conjunction with information and experience from all sectors of industry. This contributes to a better overall understanding and leads to technological innovations combined with the improvement of existing products and the development of new ones.

The industry sectors of the offshore oil and gas industry are very large, and this, coupled with the overlap of the geophysical and naval sectors, makes for an extensive list. To get an idea of the scope of these sectors, some examples are provided below, along with their key connector system design parameters:

ROV Industry: In the ROV industry, there is an increasing need for smaller sizes in deep water and higher joint contact densities at a lower cost. Key coupling system design parameters: small volume, deep water depth, high contact density, low cost.

Drilling industry: In the drilling industry, there is a need to maintain drilling “uptime” while meeting the extreme operating conditions of connectors and cable terminals. Key connector system design parameters: field installable, testable, reliable, and robust.

Frankstar Technology is now offering self-developed connectors. It fits perfectly with existing connectors on the market and is the perfect cost-effective alternative.
