SONARtrac is the newest product in FMC's portfolio of oil and gas solutions, which includes its Smith meters and Sening tank truck prod- ucts. "Offshore oil and gas producers often find it difficult to achieve com- plete separation because of the inher- ent variation in operating condi- tions," said Ed Otto, SONARtrac product manager. "SONARtrac Surveillance Technology helps meas- ure gas in liquids and liquids in gas and provides information operators need to make adjustments in the event incomplete separation should occur. With daily production values reaching several million dollars, oper- ators need all the information they can get to make the right well pro- duction and recovery choices." SONARtrac's clamp-on design is designed to allow quick installation in the field without process interrup- tion. Operators will have access to constant, real-time data to detect measurement error and the ability to identify the presence of liquid carry- over in gas that could cause expensive downstream equipment damage.

Using both CCD and SPD technolo- gies, the RCS-100 can use a standard Canon EF lens or specialized lens to capture images up to 1km away. Its rugged and lightweight design allows the user to operate in the worst con- ditions and the camera can function underwater to a depth of 100m. The operator can also remotely operate the RCS-100 from up to 1km away using a PC and specialized software. Additional software is also supplied to manage the images captured by the RCS-100.

They use Cooled-CCD sensor technology combined with high-gain low-noise amplification to provide equivalent low-light perform- ance to the SIT in underwater opera- tions. They are virtually immune to the image burn-in problems that can affect all image-intensifier cameras in bright daylight conditions. The suc- cess story of the SIT low-light camera for underwater ROV navigation began in the early 80's with the beginning of the boom in ROV oper- ations within the fledgling Offshore products FREE INFORMATION on products is available online at www.maritimeequipment.com/mt MTR#6 (49-64).qxd 7/11/2006 9:31 AM Page 54
