Seatools, a Dutch subsea technology company, has introduced a new subsea hydraulic compensator range.
The new subsea compensator range: the Advanced series, is based on the preceding Hyco range and features a strongly improved mechanical design, the company explained.
The range’s revised design, largely based on stainless steel, facilitates higher pre-pressures, which reduces the risk of water and air ingress and increases subsea hydraulic system reliability.
The Advanced compensator range underwent extensive durability tests under a variety of conditions, such as extreme temperatures ranging from -20°C to 70°C.
