Upon securing the contract, Innova leveraged its existing building blocks and innovative expertise to create an advanced control system tailored to the client’s needs. This included a hydraulic power unit, instrumentation, and a controller unit, all designed to enhance operational efficiency. Some of the necessary components were not available on the market and had to…
Read MoreFluid Sampling Skid
In spring 2024 Innova delivered Fluid sampling skid, which was co-developed with our customer. The skid is a stand-alone subsea skid designed to take samples from up to 6 wells and separate the phase to obtain pure water samples for further analysis in laboratory. The customer requires to perform ion- and residual scale inhibitor analyse…
Read MoreActuator Running Tool (ART) – horizontal
ART is designed to retrieval and installation of tool will be deployed to the SSIV structure seabed and positioned over the actuator on a subsea pipeline and enable a quick and safe replacement of an actuator valve in case of failure. The delivery consisted of Actuator Running Tool and two transportation skids. It was…

An electric actuator for small bore valves was developed and successfully qualified to API17F by Innova during an extensive and challenging project.
Read MoreFlyWOCS
Innova designed, assembled and tested the FlyWOCS, starting with the concept phase and ending with mobilization and operational support. The skid involved multidiscipline effort, including mechanical, hydraulic, electrical and software engineering. Standard Innova components were vital in the design, though some propriety solutions were needed to create a fully seamless solution. The system is powered…
Read MoreHYDRAULIKK I UNDERVANNSINTERVENSJON – DEL III
Av Terje Ollestad, Innova AS og Kurt Wiig, Kurt Wiig AS Vi har tidligere i en artikkel omtalt fordeler og ulemper med servoventiler kontra proporsjonalventiler, og i en annen artikkel trykkstyring og pumperegulering. I denne artikkelen vil vi gjøre en liten beskrivelse av kompensering av hydraulikksystemer under vann, og begynne å behandle filter og filtersystemer.…

Av Terje Ollestad, Innova AS og Kurt Wiig, Kurt Wiig AS Denne artikkelen ble orginalt utgitt i FFU nytt nr 1 i 2002 som en del av en serie om undervannshydraulikk. Litt historikk Hydraulikk har vært, og er ennå, det primære overføringsmediet av effekt til sluttbrukere i undervanns intervensjonsutstyr. Det finnes teoretisk sett mer effektive…
Read MoreFluid Sampling Skid delivery
Innova, in partnership with Aker Solutions, has successfully engineered a Fluid Sampling Skid for ConocoPhillips. This innovative skid, equipped with an integrated processing unit, enables local phase separation for precise analysis of individual wells. The delivery was accomplished on schedule and it is now ready for operation. Picture from the FAT:
