Make Better Decisions: Get critical knowledge with real-time monitoring during fracture operations
August 02, 2016
Sponsored by: Packers Plus
When uncertainty arises during downhole operations, hours or days can be wasted on trial-and-error solutions. Operators have traditionally relied on pressure and pump charts to monitor operations, but in many cases, a pressure signature is not present or clear. The ePLUS™ Retina monitoring system provides a cost-effective way to verify completion operations, accurately and independently from other measurements. By fostering an environment for confident decision-making, operators can troubleshoot problems quickly, safely, and effectively.
The Next Generation of Production Allocation – A White Paper by NavPort

Arc fault-resistant cabinet solutions for medium voltage drives
June 30, 2016
Sponsored by: Siemens
Nationally, about 2,000 arc burn related injuries require hospitalization. These injuries have become a major concern, particularly in regard to medium voltage arc faults. Currently there is no agreed upon standard for arc resistant medium voltage drives. There are, however, solutions claiming some form of arc resistant capability. The paper “Arc fault-resistant cabinet solutions for medium voltage drives” explores both the causes of arc faults and the solutions that can help protect personnel from injury.
