A jury of industry experts, R&D professionals and top executives selected TechInvent and Island Offshore/Centrica for ONS 2016 Innovation Awards.
TechInvent’s FluidCom technology was deemed the winner of the SME Innovation Award, which is given to small- and medium-sized companies. The FluidCom chemical injection valve and metering controller is a fully automated, simple and reliable device with integrated autonomous valve control, continuous flow metering and self-cleaning functionality, a news release said.
Island Offshore and Centrica were selected winners of the Innovation Award, which is given to large companies, for the riser-less coiled tubing (CT) drilling system. Island Offshore successfully drilled four wells with the system, marking the first time riser-less CT operations have been performed, the release said. Centrica E&P Norway used the same system to check for shallow gas in the seabed above its Butch Field in the Norwegian Continental Shelf.
