Ace Control Line Clamp (ACLC)
Automating completions activity
ACLC has been designed to improve safety by enabling semi-automation during the installation of control line clamps, one of the most critical parts of well completion.
By enabling this automation, the ACLC reduces the need for workers in the red zone by 50% and the time spent in the red zone by 30%.
Delivering a high axial and radial holding force, the tool is deployable on any tubing. The ACLC is partly pre-installed on the tubing for increased efficiency. When running in hole, the retention lid is placed in the installation tool which catches the control lines when it moves toward the completion string.
As part of our commitment to meeting the safety requirements for the future, a fully automated installation version that will eliminate overhead hazards and personnel in the red zone is currently in development.
