The Next Big Thing?

Natural gas is becoming the new contender in the energy race as reports of it producing as much power as coal are coming in.

Coal may just become an obsolete commodity. For natural gas is turning out to become the future of the energy sector in the USA. In June 2012, for the first time in American history, natural gas generated as much electricity as coal. Natural gas is readily available in the state of Louisiana, which also consists of the country’s largest producing natural gas field. The Intellectual Property Attache Act (IPAA) believes that the state will contribute 49% of the entire country’s natural gas in the next 20 years.

There are many advantages to using natural gas. One major point is that it is a cleaner fuel than coal. A study conducted by Cornell University on the usage of natural gas finds that the country can reduce 40% of its carbon emissions with natural gas.

With natural gas becoming a top contender in the energy race, this is certainly good news for the oil and gas industry, especially for original equipment manufacturers. Nearly 85% of oil well boring is done with drilling equipment. The demand for products such as drilling dampeners and pulsation dampener will probably grow along with that of drilling equipment.

Oil well boring requires equipment that will work in difficult conditions as well as have a long work life. One company that has made its mark in the oil and gas industry is Integrated Equipment. We are known for our blowout preventers, pulsation dampeners, wellhead equipment, and drilling dampeners, to name a few.

Integrated's  pulsation dampeners are unique in design and construction. The bodies are made from a single piece of construction, thus eliminating the risk of onsite weld failures. The dampeners also comprise removable top and bottom plates, which are easily replaceable on field. Our dampeners have capacities between 1 and 20 gallons. They have a pressure range between 285 psi and 7500 psi. The inside surfaces are machined for smooth diaphragm movement. The diaphragms are equipped with stabilizer to prevent fluid entrapment. The diaphragms can also be replaced without removing the unit from the drilling line. These many aspects make Integrated’s drilling equipment the best for the job.

Arctic Oil Drilling - Boon or Bane?

The latest news that has created waves in the world of oil rig is the possibility of oil drilling in US Arctic. The crowd has been divided in favor of and against US Arctic drilling. A brief synopsis of this event and its effects on oil drilling equipment manufacturers...

The need for oil has increased in the recent years. Unfortunately, there are not many oil rigs left. This has lead to the rise of oil prices and consequently of all other commodities everywhere. Also, many countries like the USA have to depend on other countries, and pay a very high price for very little oil. Hence, oil drilling companies are always on a lookout for new sites for drilling.

A renowned oil company recently claimed that the Arctic regions that are close to Alaska are ideal for oil drilling. More than five companies have already headed to Arctic as the new round of oil drilling is due this July (2012).

But what led to the sudden interest in the Arctic? Well, as we all know the ice on the Arctic has begun to melt. Though this is a catastrophic event for rest of the world, it is a boon in disguise for the oil drilling companies. As the ice has begun to melt, many regions of the Arctic Circle are now easily accessible.

According to the US Geological Survey 2008, the Arctic holds 13% of the world's technically recoverable oil supply, which is almost 90 billion barrels of oil! However, the environmentalists fear that offshore drilling can be disastrous in case there is even a single event of oil spilling. The oil drilling companies however, have assured the environmentalists that only the best wellhead equipment will be used for the purpose.

Blowout preventers and wellhead equipment certainly play a crucial role in oil drilling, whether it is offshore or onshore. We at Integrated Equipment manufacture state-of-the-art wellhead equipment and pressure and flow control equipment like expanding gate valves. Our products conform to Manufacturing Quality Standards and are accredited per ISO 9001. We manufacture annular and RAM blowout preventers as per the norms of API 16A.

The US Department of Interior (DOI) has approved the Oil Spill Response Plan (OSRP), as the oil drilling companies claim to have a developed a plan, to protect the environment and avoid hazardous incidents like a well blowout. Incidents like this can in fact be avoided if quality oil drilling equipment is used. However, there are many more aspects that need to be considered before moving to the Arctic. If the oil drilling companies are able to put the concerns of the environmentalists to rest with a full-proof plan, the oil drilling in Arctic is sure to be a revolutionary step in the history of oil drilling.
