Enhanced Vertical Deepwater Tree by FMC Technologies

OTC Coverage Sponsor

Winning the 2008 OTC Spotlight on New Technology Award for its Enhanced Vertical Deepwater Tree (EVDT), FMC Technologies continuously pushes the envelop in regard to subsea systems and technologies.

A slimbore subsea completion system that provides large bore system capabilities, the EVDT can accommodate 7-inch tubing completions and pressures up to 15,000 psi within a 13 5/8-inch blow out preventer (BOP) stack.

An economic and versatile subsea completion system, the EVDT eliminates the need for expensive rigs during completion by allowing ultra-deepwater completions to be performed from a small drilling rig that contains the surface BOP. Additionally, the tubing hanger can be installed using a tubing head, or it can land into the wellhead, eliminating the tubing head altogether.

FMC Technologies was recently named Fortune magazine's Most Admired Oil and Gas Equipment, Services Company. A leading manufacturer and supplier of subsea production systems, FMC Technologies also focuses on surface wellhead, fluid control, loading systems, measurement solutions and separation technologies.
