Description of Koil Energy Solutions Inc's Business Segments
Services. We provide a wide variety of engineering and management services, including
the design, installation and retrieval of subsea equipment and systems, connection
and termination operations, well-commissioning services, as well as construction
support and Remotely Operated Vehicle (“ROV”) operations support.
We pride ourselves in our ability to collaborate with the engineering functions
of oil and gas operators, installation contractors and subsea equipment manufacturers
to determine the fastest, safest, and most cost-effective solutions to the full
spectrum of complex issues which arise in our industry.
Project Management and Engineering. Our project management teams specialize
in deepwater subsea developments. Our services are centered on the utilization
of standardized hardware, proven, well-tested installation techniques, and experienced,
consistent teams that have proven to be safe and skilled in all aspects of the
installation process. Many installation contractors find it beneficial to utilize
our services to help reduce on-board personnel since our specialized technicians
can perform multiple tasks. Our teams have vast experience with the installation
of flexible and rigid risers and flowlines, umbilicals, flexible and rigid jumpers,
steel tube and thermoplastic hose flying leads, pipeline end terminations and
manifolds. Our engineers have experience ranging from the initial conceptual
design phases through manufacturing and installation, and concluding with topside
connections and commissioning. Our experience provides us with a level of “hands
on” and practical understanding that has proven to be indispensable in
enabling us to offer custom solutions to the many problems encountered both
subsea and topside. Because of our wide knowledge base, our engineering team
is often hired by oil and gas operators, installation contractors and subsea
equipment manufacturers to provide installation management and engineering support
services. Our engineering team has been involved in several of the innovative
solutions used today in deepwater subsea systems. We specialize in offshore
installation engineering and the writing of practical installation procedures.
We deal with issues involving flying leads, compliant umbilical splices, bend
stiffener latchers, umbilical hardware, hold-back clamps, and the development
of distribution system components. We are heavily involved in the fabrication
of installation aids to simplify offshore executions, and offer hydraulic, fiber
optic, and electrical testing services and various contingency testing tools.
Spooling Services. Our experienced personnel are involved in the operation
of spooling equipment on many projects, including operations for other companies
to run their spooling equipment. We have developed a very efficient (in both
time and cost) system for spooling, utilizing our horizontal drive units, under-rollers,
tensioners, carousels and rapid deployment cartridges.
Testing and Commissioning Services. Umbilical manufacturers, control suppliers,
installation contractors, and oil and gas operators utilize our services to
perform all aspects of testing, including initial Factory Acceptance Testing
(“FAT”), extended factory acceptance testing and System Integration
Testing (“SIT”), related to the connecting of the umbilical termination
assemblies, the performing of installations, and the completion of the commissioning
of the system thereafter. To execute these services, we have assembled a variety
of personnel and equipment to ensure that all testing operations are done in
a safe and time-efficient manner, ensuring a reduced overall project cost. We
also work hard to utilize the most detailed digital testing and monitoring equipment
to ensure that the most accurate data is provided to our customers. We have
been hired to perform coiled tubing flushing, cleaning, and hydro testing, umbilical
filling, flushing, pressure, flow rate, and cleanliness testing, load out monitoring
and testing, installation monitoring, post installation testing, system commissioning,
umbilical intermediate testing, and umbilical termination assembly cleanliness,
flow, and leak testing. We employ a variety of different pumping systems to
meet industry needs and offer maximum flexibility. Our philosophy is to flush
through the maximum number of lines at the highest flow rate possible to maximize
efficiency. Due to the different requirements for testing and commissioning
of subsea systems, we have an assortment of pumps and equipment to deploy to
ensure a safe and efficient commissioning program. We have experience handling
all types of commissioning fluids, including asphaltine dispersants, diesel,
methanol, xylene, corrosion inhibitors, water-based control fluids, oil-based
control fluids, 100 percent glycol, paraffin inhibitors, and alcohol. We have
been involved in the design, procurement, testing, installation, and operation
of the testing equipment. Our engineers and service technicians can also assist
in writing the testing procedures and sequences from simple FAT to very extensive
multiple pressures and fluids testing up to full system SIT procedures. We work
closely with the project managers and production platform engineers to help
ensure that all aspects of the installation or retrieval project, including
potential risks and dangers, are identified, planned for, and eliminated prior
to arrival on the production platform.
Storage Management. Our facility in Houston, Texas covers more than 255,000
square feet on 23 acres, offering internal high quality warehousing capacity,
external storage and a strategic location in Houstons Ship Channel area. Our
warehouse is designed to provide customers with flexible and cost effective
warehousing and storage management alternatives. Our professional and experienced
warehouse staff, combined with the very latest in information technology, results
in a fully integrated warehousing package designed to deliver effective solutions
to customer needs. Among other capabilities, we are capable of providing long-term
specialized contract warehousing; long and short-term storage; modern materials
handling equipment; covered loading areas; quality security systems; integrated
inventory management; packing and repacking; computerized stock controls; and
labeling.
Our shore-based facility located at Core Industries, Inc. in Mobile, Alabama
has 6,500 square feet and houses our 3,400 ton carousel system, and is used
to store customers’ products. The site is sufficient to allow for full
system integration testing of our customers’ equipment prior to deployment
offshore.
ROV and ROV Tooling Services. As part of our ROV services, we have observation
and light work class ROV units capable of operating in depths of 10,000 feet.
Our services include offering these vehicles to strategic alliance partners
who lease our vehicles and provide the actual services of platform inspection,
platform installation and abandonment, search and recovery, salvage, subsea
sampling, subsea intervention, telecommunication cable inspections, anchor handling,
ROV consulting and project management, ROV pilots and technicians, and underwater
cinematography. We provide an extensive line of ROV intervention tooling, both
used to support our own operations and for rental to our customers. Our ROV
tooling equipment includes flying lead orientation tools, class 1-5 torque tools,
hot stabs, pipe cutting systems, dredging and pumping systems, ROV clamps and
ROV-friendly hooks and shackles that are state-of-the-art in design.
Equipment Refurbishment and Intervention Services. In addition to the new products
we build, we have cultivated expertise in the refurbishment and repurposing
of recovered subsea distribution assets and providing support for offshore interventions.
Items refurbished and repurposed for customers include Logic Caps (“LC(s)”),
intermediate logic caps, and Hydraulic Distribution Manifolds (“HDM(s)”).
Once a recovered asset is received, it is cleaned, any production fluids are
flushed out with a water-based control fluid, and the asset is moved into storage.
As an emergency or intervention arises, we pull the stored asset, reroute and
weld the tubing, and then perform FAT per customer specifications. Finally,
we send out our service technicians and equipment to support the offshore campaign.
Additionally, we perform various tasks in support of offshore interventions.
We reconfigure Deep Down Hydrate Remediation Frames and Hydraulic Flying Leads
(“HFL(s)”) at either of our facilities or in the field. Our service
technicians go offshore to pre-charge and make any changes to the frame needed
to remediate hydrates.
We also developed the Fast Response Box (“FRB”), a concept cultivated
from our vast offshore campaign experience. Our team identified the necessary
components for an emergency reroute of a chemical or hydraulic line performed
on the deck of a vessel. After the subsea distribution hardware is brought up,
our service technicians safely depressurize, flush, cut out tubing, and reroute
as required to get the well or field back up and producing. We then pre-charge
the system and assist in overboarding and reinstallation. Our ability to provide
a fully functional temporary solution is designed to bring the well or field
back into production immediately and allows time for a permanent solution to
be developed.
Our capabilities further include in-house software and hardware engineering
to provide innovative solutions from wireless testing and monitoring equipment,
to Dynamic Positioning (“DP”) systems. We have also developed camera
systems that can be set up at any site, enabling our customers to witness FATs,
SITs or vessel load-outs in real-time, from any location in the world.
Products. We provide installation support equipment and component parts and
assemblies for subsea distribution systems. We believe the key to successful
installations of hardware is to design the subsea system by considering installation
issues first, working backwards to the design of the hardware itself. This is
why we have been instrumental in the development of hardware and techniques
to simplify deepwater installations. We design, manufacture, fabricate, inspect,
assemble and test subsea equipment, surface equipment and offshore equipment
that is used by major integrated, large independent and foreign national oil
and gas companies in offshore areas throughout the world. Our products are used
during oil and gas exploration, development and production operations on offshore
drilling rigs, such as floating rigs and jack-ups, and for drilling and production
of oil and gas wells on offshore platforms, tension leg platforms and moored
vessels such as Floating Production Storage and Offloading vessels (“FPSO”).
Flying Leads. Deep Down is a leader in flying lead design, manufacture and
installation; in particular steel tube flying leads. Our flagship product, the
Loose Steel Tube Flying Lead (“LSFL®”), was developed to eliminate
the residual memory left in traditional flying leads due to the bundling process.
The loose lay of the tubes significantly reduces stiffness of the assembly,
allows the bundle to lay flat on the sea floor, follow the prescribed lay path
precisely, bend in a tight radius with minimal resistance and offers maximum
compliance for easy makeup in lengths up to 1,000’. When greater lengths
up to 10,000’ are required, we utilize our patented Non-Helical Umbilical
(“NHU®”) in conjunction with a compliant section on each end
of the assembly to achieve the same result. We also offer hybrid LSFL® assemblies
which can include any number and combination of electrical, optical, hose and
steel tube elements. Hybrid LSFL® technology provides installation savings
in both time and money as fewer operations are required to install the combined
unit.
Deep Down employs the patented Moray® termination system on each end of
the LSFL®. The Moray® termination is a light weight, high-strength,
configurable and field serviceable framework used to connect any commercially
available Multi-Quick Connect (“MQC”) plate to the LSFL® bundle.
The Moray® termination assembly allows the installation load from the steel
tubes or strength member to be transmitted directly to the framework and through
to the installation rigging while isolating couplers from the load to maintain
maximum compliance. The Moray® termination with compliant section is ideal
for umbilical end terminations; it eliminates the need for bulky armor pots
and is more manageable than a traditional umbilical end termination. In this
application, the Moray® termination can be used to house multiple electrical,
optical and auxiliary hydraulic interfaces in integrated ROV panels. Moray®
termination assemblies can be outfitted with integrated buoyancy allowing quicker
installation times by eliminating the need to recover buoyancy modules. Additionally,
this allows for the use of a smaller class ROV on a vessel should the need for
rework arise.
