Company History The History of Mecha Controls BV.
In January of 2000 three men, formerly employed

by Halliburton, established Mecha Controls B.V.
Mecha Controls product is two-fold: it designs and
manufactures Wellhead Control panels, and it also
installs and maintains these panels.
In 1998 Halliburton decided that the production of

Wellhead Control panels was no longer core
business. The panels were, however, still sold and
purchased in the United States of America.
European standards are different, so in December
of 1999 it was decided to re-start production for the
European market in The Netherlands.
This has proven to be a good decision, because in

January of 2000, Mecha Controls was in
business.
Since 2000, Mecha Controls has experienced

rapid growth, working on several large scale
projects. Therefore, we have moved to a location
with a 400m2 workshop, and 150m2 of office
space.
In 2004 Fluitronics showed interest in Mecha

Controls, and now owns 64% of the shares. The
cooperation with Fluitronics enables us to expand
our target market, for instance to the Far East.
Characteristics In short, Mecha Controls:
- is very flexible;
- has short response times;
- has short lines of communication;
- uses high quality components;
- delivers top quality products;
- has good relations with suppliers;
- has over 15 years of experience;
- delivers products that require very little
maintenance;
- can deliver panel with a third party ATEX
certification.

4 ATEX

Tel. +31 (0) 592 405 070 - Fax +31 (0) 592 405 570
Within the European Union various rules and regulations were combined into one new
regulation named ATEX (Atmosphres Explosibles). Since July 2003 all products must,
by law, be designed and manufactured according to this new ATEX directive, which has
been in effect since 1996.
Former directives were restricted to electrical equipment for hazardous areas, and were
strictly based on technical standards regulated by test authorities.
Current directives are based on the following principles:

- harmonisation is limited to Essential Health and Safety Requirements
(EHSR);
- only products concurring with EHSR may be marketed and put into service;
- harmonised standards which are transposed into national standards, are
presumed to conform to the corresponding EHSR;
- application to harmonised standards or other technical specifications remains
voluntary, and manufacturers are free to choose any technical solution that
complies with the EHSR;
- manufacturers may choose between different conformity assessment
procedures provided for in the applicable directive.
The two directives that apply to hazardous areas are:

- Directive 94/9/EC ATEX 95;
- Directive 1999/92/EC ATEX 137.
Equipment that complies with the new directives may carry the CE mark.
Up to the ATEX live date, free movement of goods for hazardous areas, was indicated
by the distinctive community mark EX. Since July 1st, 2003, only products carrying the
CE mark may be put on the market and put into service. Through the application of the
conformity assessment procedures, manufacturers can issue an EC Declaration of
Conformity, stating the compliance with the relevant directive(s) and apply the CE mark
on their equipment. The EX will still appear on the label, but its only function is to
indicate that the product is intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres or is
contributing to its safety.

Tel. +31 (0) 592 405 070 - Fax +31 (0) 592 405 570
Mecha Controls implemented this new regulation from the beginning, and assigned a
third party to help implement the new rules. A list of dedicated third parties can be
found at the end of this section. The four digits can be found in the marking behind the
CE mark.
A few examples of projects delivered with ATEX certification are:

- Stork GLT The Netherlands
- RWE/DEA - Germany
- NAM The Netherlands
Essential safety requirements (cover a wide field, fully detailed in Annex II of the new
directive):
- integrated safety principle;
- specific conditions of inspection and maintenance;
- environmental conditions;
- marking;
- instructions for use;
- choice of materials;
- design and manufacturing;
- potential ignition sources, such as sparks, flames, electric arcs, high surface
temperatures, acoustic energy, radiation (optical, electromagnetic or other
sources);
- risks caused by software;
- explosive atmospheres caused by the presence of gas, vapours, and mist;
- explosive atmospheres caused by the presence of air-dust mixtures.
Equipment covered by directive 94/9/EC must also meet the requirements of other
relevant directives:
- Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive (EMC);
- Machine Directive.

5 INTRODUCTION TO WELLHEAD SYSTEMS

Tel. +31 (0) 592 405 070 - Fax +31 (0) 592 405 570
Introduction
The typical name already explains the function of the type of equipment we
design, manufacture, and sell: the HWCU controls, with the necessary pressure,
the safety valves of a production wellhead.
The wellhead is a production tree that enables people to produce oil and gas
safely from reservoirs located deeply underground.
A typical wellhead is equipped with at least two safety devices. This is not only
necessary, but also obligated under general laws. These two safety devices are
the Surface Safety Valve (SSV), and the Surface Controlled Subsurface Safety
Valve (SCSSV). The SSV is located at the surface mounted in the X-mas tree.
The SCSSV on the other hand, is located subsurface at depths between 100 and
600 metres. Both new and existing production platforms have options like wing
valves, choke valves, etcetera.
Most of these valves are controlled by hydraulic power; only a few, mainly the
SSVs, are controlled by pneumatic power.
The Mecha Controls HWCU uses a combination of these powers in order to

control all the valves on a wellhead.
A typical HWCU has at least two sections. The first is a power section which
generates control and system pressure. Furthermore, the HWCU, has one or
more sections containing controls to open and close the valves.
In general three types of control units can be manufactured:

- Multi Well Unit (MWCU) : a unit that can control more than one wellhead;
- Single Well Unit (SWCU) : a unit that can control only one wellhead;
- Selfcontained Unit : a unit that can control only one wellhead
without external sources.

Tel. +31 (0) 592 405 070 - Fax +31 (0) 592 405 570
For the HWCU a variety of power sources, in various combinations can be used.
Many of these combinations have already been designed, and are now fully
operational at various production sites. A combination of the following power
sources is possible:
- Hydraulic power : oil, water;
- Pneumatic power : instrument air, production gas, N2;
- Electric power : 380 Vac, 24Vdc, Solar energy;
- Hand power.
Of course, there are both advantages and disadvantages in using the various
power sources. The various characteristics can be summed up as follows:
Pneumatic/hydraulic:
- a compressor is needed;
- pneumatic pumps need big air flows;
- pneumatic pumps need regular maintenance;
- noise production is high;
- additional tubing and components needed for air treatment;
- sensitive for low temperatures;
- parts are relatively cheap;
- safe to use in hazardous areas.
Electric/hydraulic:
- no compressor needed;
- electric motor pump combinations are maintenance free;
- start/stop must be controlled by electric logic;
- more expensive, since low hydraulic control power must be generated
for controls;
- low noise production;
- not sensitive for low temperatures;
- parts are relatively expensive;
- Ex parts needed in hazardous areas.
Combination of pneumatic and solar/hydraulic:

- sensitive parts for charging and control;
- backup batteries have short life cycle;
- light/sun needed to generate power;
- not available in Ex classification.

Combination of pneumatic and electric/hydraulic:

- all advantages can be combined to produce a system with a minimum of
down time;
- low cost for open/close control using instrument air;
- when using a combination with the electric motor pump, maintenance
costs are low.

6 HYDRAULIC WELL CONTROL UNITS

Tel. +31 (0) 592 405 070 - Fax +31 (0) 592 405 570
6.1 Multi Well Control Units

The Multi Well Control Unit (MWCU) can control all valves of more than one wellhead.
The units are designed to control multiple wells, using power generated by one single
power section. Outputs are taken from this main power section, and divided over the
various control sections, thus enabling the operator to control the wellhead.
Reservoir sizes are custom made, to fit each customers individual requirements. For
maintenance purposes, a lift off hinge back door is installed. Control panel and devices
are located behind front doors with lexan windows. The doors can be opened up to 90
degrees. The amount of safety valves and electrical devices that can be controlled is
unlimited.
A combination of all available power sources, as discussed earlier, can be used for the
MWCU.
Advantages of a Multi Well Control Unit:

- easy to exchange with backup control sections in case of failure;
- clean well area;
- one of the cheapest options for additional expansion;
- clear overview of all wells in one panel;
- can be placed in a safe area, since tubing lengths are longer.
Disadvantages of a Multi Well Control Unit:

- longer length of interconnection tubing;
- as a result, slower closing times;
- impact at all wells caused by major failures in the power section;
- difficult to transport and handle.

6.2 Single Well Control Units

The Single Well Control Unit (SWCU) can control all valves of one single wellhead.
There are three standard designs, which comply with most requests. Very short
delivery times can thus be realised.
The following standard designs are available:
- A-Style: a very compact unit with a 20 litres reservoir. For maintenance

purposes, the entire cover can be removed, by removing eight
bolts. Control panel and devices are located behind a lockable
cover that opens 110 degrees. The A-style SWCU is limited to
control two safety valves and one electrical device;
- B-Style: a compact unit with a 30 litres reservoir. For maintenance
purposes, a lift off hinge back door is installed. Control panel and
devices are located behind a front door with lexan window. The
doors can be opened up to 90 degrees. The B-style SWCU is
limited to control three safety valves and three electrical devices;
- Free-Style: a unit with custom made reservoir. For maintenance purposes, a lift
off hinge back door is installed. Control panel and devices are
located behind a front door with lexan window. The doors can be
opened up to 90 degrees. The Free-style SWCU can control an
unlimited amount of safety valves and electrical devices.
Of course, all our Single Well Control Units can be custom built, to meet your specific
requirements.
Advantages of a Single Well Control Unit:

- small length of interconnecting tubing;
- therefore, quick closing times;
- no impact at other wells caused by major failures;
- easy to transport and handle;
- clear overall layout of the well area;
- one of the cheapest options.
Disadvantages of a Single Well Control Unit:

- price impact as every unit has its own power section with reservoir;
- space must be available in the wellhead area;
- must be placed in hazardous area.

the higher test pressure, are placed. This can be pneumatic, electric or fluid controlled.
Reservoir sizes are custom made, with a minimum of 25 litres up to 400 litres. They are
equipped with: filler/strainer, inspection/cleanout hole, drain connections, level gauges
and other features requested like for instance level alarms.
Output is a pressure chart showing functioning of the tested equipment. This can be
done with use of a mechanical recorder with pens and a paper chart or digitally using a
Honeywell logical recording device that can be read with use of a computer. Charts can
be stored and printed.
The enclosures are designed to meet end function; offshore units will be tested and
delivered according the applicable specifications. Calculations, materials selection and
welding inspections will be conducted and documented.
The skid and the reservoir are built of stainless steel. Other materials are available
upon request.
All materials used are selected at proven reliability; spare parts are available through
our worldwide distributors network. Detailed information is contained in the IOM
manuals delivered with the equipment.

7.4 BOP Control Skid

BOP valves are double acting valves that need pressure to open and reverse to close.
Rotary valves are used to perform this function.
This skid is commonly used to control BOP

valves. A reservoir of approximately 11 litres
with filler/vent and sight glass. Pump output
pressure up to 3000 psi. Two 3-way control
valves are used to open/close the valves.
More complex skids can be used to supply

other power stations with the necessary supply
for a correct function.
All power source combinations are possible.
(See Chapter 6)

7.5 Power Skids

The Power skid is designed to generate an output that can be used for various
applications. Easy to carry skids for field use, or more complex skids that enable other
devices to run.
Simple skids up to 690 Bar can be used to test and set the
switch point of pressure switches or pressure transmitters.
They can be manufactured with a combination of
pneumatic/hand operated pumps, protected with a relief
valve. This skid has a small reservoir of approximately 5
litres with filler/vent and sight glass. A bulkhead output
controlled with a block valve and indication gauges for air
pressure and output pressure will be enough to have a
pressure source available were needed.
More complex skids can be used to supply other power

stations with the necessary input for functioning correctly. All
combinations of power sources, as discussed earlier in
Chapter 6, are possible.
This unit is fed with 380Vac, has its own Eex-d motor control
unit and has eight 210 bar maximum outputs. It contains a
200 litres reservoir and is equipped with low level alarm that
generates a motor stop at 10% remaining fluid. An
accumulator can be installed for emergency backup with an
additional hand pump.
