Niche Products are proud to announce the launch of Pelagic CLEO, a super high temperature
subsea control fluid, breaking new barriers for high temperature use in subsea production wells.
Pelagic CLEO was carefully developed to bridge the technology gap between water based fluids and the extreme high temperature and high pressure developments of the future. This new fluid is unique, as it offers excellent stability at high temperatures and is capable of maintaining temperatures in excess of 250°C for a project lifetime.
In addition, with the potential future requirements for closed loop systems in some sectors, this environmental oil is acceptable for direct discharge to sea. What’s more, it is designed to offer all the technical properties of traditional oil based fluids in closed loop systems.
This is an extraordinary breakthrough for the industry and offers a positive and very real assistance in the quest to access new oil reserves and to produce oil at hotter and hotter temperatures.
Niche Products Technical Director Tom McKechnie said: “Pelagic CLEO is an absolutely extraordinary product, which combines high temperature capability and environmental acceptability. This product will assist the production of oil in subsea control systems at temperatures never seen before, all while causing minimal environmental impact”.
Niche Products, having recently celebrated its 10th anniversary, has been involved in the subsea hydraulics fluid market since 2001, when it first launched its pioneering Pelagic range of environmentally superior subsea control fluids. As worldwide environmental regulations have become tighter over the past decade, the Pelagic product range remains the obvious choice for both drilling and production companies looking for environmentally superior technology with no compromise on technical performance.
