In August 1927, brothers Arthur and Kirby Pennick of Houston founded Oil Center Tool (O-C-T) to produce pump liners and rods for the oilfields of East Texas. In 1930, O-C-T introduced a new type of casing head and tubing head that was an immediate success. ➤ O-C-T soon followed these innovations with another first. At the time, completion wellheads (Christmas trees) were assembled and tested on-site – an expensive, time-consuming and dangerous practice. O-C-T had a better idea, along with better completion wellhead components. The company introduced the first factory-assembled and tested Christmas tree, an innovation hailed as a landmark in efficiency, safety and cost-effectiveness. ➤ After only a few years of operation, O-C-T was on its way to setting the standard for the design, manufacture and service of the surface wellhead. The Our Company at a Glance company that would become part of FMC Energy Systems – a quarter of a century later – introduced one innovation after another as it committed its resources to designing and manufacturing superior wellhead systems for a growing roster of customers. It’s been that way ever since. TECHNOLOGY LEADER FMC Energy Systems and its predecessor, O-C-T, have a long history of technological innovations – from the 5K wellhead in the 1930s to the first multiple-completion systems of the 1940s to the first Unihead™ thru-bore system – and in subsequent decades, the introduction of multiple-completion systems, automatic casing hangers, Unitree™, industrystandard C22/29 casing heads, Speed Loc™ clamps, subsea technology and the first [ S A F E T Y F I R S T.

In addition. Common oilfield elastomers are sufficiently reliable for low-pressure. 80 . Sometimes a metal seal option can be a cost-effective way to increase service life and improve production efficiencies. ◆ Antiextrusion devices are incorporated into each type of seal design to compensate for thermal expansion/contraction of the seal element and for installation clearances. such as the larger API casing and tubing OD tolerances now allowed by API Spec-5CT. ◆ All seal designs utilize one of the FMC proprietary elastomeric compounds. For example. some seal designs cannot keep a bubble-tight seal over the wide temperature ranges and large pressure variations encountered. These seal compounds are rated for all API material classes. ◆ All seals are designed to provide proper squeeze.

Wire Mesh Elastomeric Sealing Element PI Seal The FMC PI Seal design is an extremely reliable high-pressure sealing mechanism. and seal shrinkage/poor response at low temperatures. the pressure-intensified (PI) seal assembly. The PI seal uses the casing annulus pressure to generate a higher pressure in the elastomer seal. which eliminates the diffusion of gas into the elastomer. and lower ACME threaded lock ring to hold the packoff in the bottom of the tubing head.6. This pressure intensification is generated by a movable “T” ring which creates an unbalanced pressure area across the elastomer seal. The T-ring design also allows the elastomer to self-compensate for seal stress fluctuations caused by thermal cycling. The movement of the T-ring automatically controls excessive seal stresses caused by elastomer expansion. Its design and elastomer compound enable excellent temperature and environmental resistance.26FMC7(pg62-85)_4. This design is coupled with FMC’s proprietary seal formulation. The PI seal is rated to 15. including explosive decompression.000 psi working pressure and was developed for use as a lower casing or tubing spool packoff where long-term reliable sealing in hostile environments is required. The PI design addresses some rather complex problems associated with oilfield elastomer seal designs. At very low temperatures.

SBMS-II Seals The SBMS-II has “bumps” on the inside diameter and the outside diameter. The XEMS seal can be run through the BOP stack and is energized by lockdown screws or by an internal lockdown ring and running tool. XEMS Seals FMC Energy Systems’ externally energized metal seal (XEMS) is used in Unihead ® wellhead systems for special mandrel casing hanger and tubing hanger applications. The SBMS maintains sufficient contact-sealing stress even at very low pressure. FMC Energy Systems provides an ACME threaded casing holddown nut to minimize upward thermal expansion of the casing and act as a bit guide to protect the SBMS-II seal when running tubing or conditioning the hole. Various applications of the SBMS-II design include valve stem back-seat seals. Each seal lip engages its entry ramp. The seal design is based on an interference fit with pressure-intensified sealing. This seal design does not require special complex field machining of the casing stub. is NACE compatible.6.04 6/26/04 6:02 PM Page 23 M etal Seals SBMS Seals FMC Energy Systems’ straight-bore metal seal (SBMS) is energized by interference between the designated primary sealing surface and the metal seal’s contact area with that sealing surface. The operation can be executed with a portable pneumatic tool. is compatible with casing spool and tubing spool strength. RCMS Seals The most recent addition to the family of metal seals is the rough-casing metal seal (RCMS).26FMC7(pg62-85)_4. When used against slip-suspended casing. it is required to machine the casing stub after the casing is hung off. When employed to seal against a casing stub. The SBMS-II is normally used on production casing where extreme temperature fluctuations are anticipated or in critical-service applications. The SBMS-II seal has been used in sizes up to 20˝.
