Engineered ceramics expert showcases ways to make tools more productive – extending useful life and reducing downtime.
Golden, Colorado, USA, April 23, 2018 ─ CoorsTek, the world’s leading engineered ceramics manufacturer, is featuring its advanced ceramic solutions for oil & gas applications at next week’s Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) at NRG Park in Houston, Texas.
Severe wear, erosion, and corrosion in both offshore and oilfield conditions destroy traditional materials. Replacing metal and hardened alloy components with durable CoorsTek engineered ceramics can deliver up to 100 times less wear – meaning longer equipment life and less downtime.
“The energy industry worldwide is focused on becoming even more productive and efficient, and innovative technology like we will see at OTC is the enabler,” said Becky Tomasek, Global Commercial Director – Energy at CoorsTek. “Our engineered ceramic solutions have helped operators and service companies reduce non-productive time, enhance output, and extend equipment life.”
At OTC, CoorsTek will be highlighting examples of engineered ceramic technology improving the effectiveness and longevity of oil & gas equipment used in exploration, drilling, completion, and production. “Consider what a difference ceramic makes in a component as simple as a ball bearing used in all kinds of rotary equipment,” explains Pat Stone, Sr. Business Development Manager – Oil & Gas at CoorsTek. “Cerbec® ceramic bearing elements are virtually corrosion-free, 120% harder, 68% stiffer, and 75% smoother than steel – so equipment performs better and lasts longer in these severe environments. When you identify the parts that see extreme wear and replace those with an advanced ceramic, our customers have extended useful life 1-2 orders of magnitude.”
The company will also show its SurgeTek™ and FlowGuard® pulsation mitigation equipment and pump replacement parts which help keep fluid handling systems running smoothly.
