Offshore staff

HOUSTON– Teledyne Marine has won an OTC Spotlight Award for the FlameGuard P5-200 electrical penetrator.

This is a flame-proof ceramic electrical penetrator for use as part of the fire-resistant envelope of an offshore surface wellhead and christmas tree system. The penetrator is a key technology element in a 5 kV electrical feedthrough system that provides three-phase power to downhole electrical submersible pumps in offshore dry trees. The penetrator is rated as fire resistant in accordance with API 6FB, Part II.

The penetrator, rated for 5 kV and 200 A at 5,000 psi, is designed for safe operation in potentially flammable atmospheres where ATEX and IEC Ex standards apply, such as those found on offshore platforms.

Teledyne Marine is exhibiting at booth #401.
