The Cameron Mark IV control system - featuring an industry-first three-POD design option - improves operational reliability of the drilling system through a simplified POD design.
Features- Three-POD option, each with 160 functions to accommodate eight cavity stacks
- Large drilling valves are sub-plate-mounted soft seat type for improved flow capacity
- Tungsten carbide shear seals for ultra wear resistance life and contamination tolerance
- Pressure-compensation of pilot regulators eliminating manual pre-charge and uses 50% fewer POD accumulators
- Regulators with expanded flow capacity and greater stability
- Robust solenoids with uncomplicated servicing access for reduced maintenance burden
- Precision alignment system for stack stinger extend and retract, including disposable wear bands
- Smooth piping network removes flow restrictions and has been relocated inside frame protected from external hazards
- Dual sealing connections and non-corrosive materials used throughout POD
- Top and rear sides conveniently open for personnel access
Benefits:
- Improved POD reliability
- Thoughtfully designed for easier maintenance
- Heightened performance built-in
- Increased system availability
