SAP certification

New wireline for the wellsite

Advaris has received SAP certification for its Advaris Cable MES 4.0 production tool. The certification confirms that the solution can be integrated with SAP Supply Chain Management (SAP SCM) 5.1and is a significant milestone in the integration of the Advaris Cable Manufacturing Execution System (MES) with SAP software. Manufacturers can integrate Advaris Cable as a sector-specific production scheduling tool in SAP SCM. Advaris CEO Dr Manfred Moser said: “Users who in addition to our detailed planning tool also use the comprehensive functions of Advaris for shop floor control and production data capturing can realize a complete latest generation MES system in the SAP environment.”

A new environment-friendly wireline for the oil and gas industry was launched at the 2014 Global Petroleum Show in Canada. The EcoSeal cable from Camesa, a WireCo WorldGroup brand, eliminates the need for grease injection systems and allows for faster rig-up time at the wellsite. Double-seal technology features an inner sleeve and a specially designed outer jacket, which will reduce the need for additional equipment and provide for a cleaner jobsite. “We firmly believe this new product will be a game changer in the oil and gas industry,” said Dustin Dunning, Camesa’s sales manager.“Aftermorethanayearof research and design work by our engineering staff, field and trial testing, and quality control, we are able to release a product that promises to speed up the wireline rig up process and provide a cleaner, more efficient cable.” By using Camesa’s EcoSeal wireline, operators no longer need additional grease pumps which inject grease into traditional pressure control equipment, creating a cleaner and safer worksite. In addition, flow tubes and extended lubricators can also be eliminated, helping to reduce the operation’s footprint. EcoSeal’s smooth technology allows technicians to achieve higher running speeds without the loss of pressure control, and the dual polymer coating helps to eliminate common cable problems, including birdcaging and loose armor wires. Camesa will begin taking orders for the new product in early October of 2014.

Advaris Cable performs fully automatic loading of the manufacturing orders from the SAP system and then synchronizes changes that occur. The program also takes into account the availability of materials in detailed planning. In order to do this, the MES downloads the material stocks from the SAP system and keeps them updated.
