SHOCK AND VIBRATION REDUCTION FOR THE OIL AND GAS INDUSTRY

Generators, compressors and mud pumps impose vibrational forces on oil rigs, causing structural fatigue. Vibrations sometimes occur in piping at such a high frequency they cause cracks while damaging essential components like supports and clamps.

 

Mitigating shock and vibration is a high priority for oil and gas operations. Besides causing expensive damage to valuable equipment, these hazards pose threats to a company’s workforce by potentially resulting in dangerous leaks.

 

At IDC, we offer a comprehensive selection of off-the-shelf and customized wire rope isolation devices that provide cost-effective and durable vibration control solutions for equipment in the oil and gas industry.

OIL AND GAS ISOLATOR APPLICATOINS

IDC develops advanced isolation technology that improves operational efficiency and production for oil and gas applications. By delivering shock protection, vibration control, motion stability and noise attenuation in one system, our isolators optimize equipment performance and enhance safety while providing cost savings through damage reduction. These solutions feature helical-wound cables that offer protection across multiple axes over a broad temperature range.

Our engineers can work with clients seeking isolation solutions for equipment still in the design phase, companies building systems to support equipment on a trailer, or manufacturers producing entire systems. Our products serve various areas throughout the oil and gas industry, including:

OIL & GAS FIELD EXTRACTIONS

Our isolators provide an easy-to-install vibration mitigation solution with rugged metal construction that helps extend the service life of valuable equipment like pipes, pumps, blowout preventers and drill bits.

OFFSHORE OIL PLATFORMS

Offshore oil operations face more complex challenges because of the harsh operating environments and erratic climates. The all-metal construction of our isolators delivers exceptional protection, including stainless steel options for added protection against saline.

HYBRID INDUSTRY SOLUTIONS

As oil and gas operations in the oil and gas industry continue to go green, newer equipment designs require innovative shock and vibration reduction solutions. Our innovative isolators can deliver the protection you need to maintain optimal functionality by minimizing damage.
