NOV wins OTC Spotlight on New Technology Award for SAPL

We are excited to announce that our subsea automated pig launcher is a recipient of the OTC Spotlight on New Technology Award.

Mar 25, 2019

The OTC Spotlight on New Technology Award recognizes the latest and most advanced technologies within the oil and gas industry. This year there were 450 technologies nominated for an award, and the top 18 were chosen as recipients.

The Subsea Automated Pig Launcher (SAPL) allows pig launching from the subsea to topside and enables a wide range of pigging operations that help avoid pipeline blockages and production shutdowns while improving system integrity. The system also eliminates the need for a second flowline solely for pigging and wax handling and reduces the number of days required for vessel mobilization compared to conventional systems. It has also reduced the number of days required for vessel mobilization compared to conventional subsea pigging systems.

We invite you to join us at the awards ceremony on May 6, 2019, at 1600 hours in the NRG Center Rotunda Lobby, where NOV representatives will be accepting an award for our SAPL.
