Off-line Offshore Drilling Solutions
On-board provides additional testing local to the asset, allowing you to vet a sensor reading quickly and effectively or as a primary source of testing where sensors are not available or appropriate. To correlate / overlay the result you can forward a sample to an on-shore lab. However, you may find sufficient information is available upon testing ‘locally’, such that you can take immediate action to avert trauma while still sending the sample out for additional test parameters and recommendations.

Special Consideration
- Salt water contamination from inclement weather can be a problem for some sunps, particularly exposed gearsets on platforms. You will need to handle lubricants with good care, as well as ensure that breathers and other ingress points are properly serviced and controlled. If necessary, salt water identification is available at Tier 2 level.
