If there’s an incident in the Gulf of Mexico, PTS is the only company in the world with a high-volume, portable, modular, 3-phase processing system for Emergency Response.  

This package can be installed on any MODU vessel to safely handle flow and capture well control scenarios and minimize damage to our environment.

PTS is proud to be a service partner for the HWCG consortium, providing a deep-water well containment solution. Production Technology & Services, Inc. - Ready to Respond.

The PTS Emergency Response Kit is a dedicated, high-rate, portable, severe-service well testing and water treatment package, versatile enough to go anywhere, anytime in the Gulf of Mexico.

From our response facility in Broussard, Louisiana, our staff is continuously available to rapidly mobilize the emergency well response equipment and service personnel to respond to an offshore incident. 

The equipment is transported to the port, loaded onto marine support vessels, and brought to the response vessel. The PTS equipment is loaded onto a MODU such as the Helix Energy Solutions Q-4000, rigged up, commissioned, and ready to process 130,000 barrels of liquids per day and 220 million cubic feet of gas per day.

At the incident site, the capping stack and riser are lowered into position. Once the capping stack is landed, the diverter valves will be closed, and the well flow will go up the riser to the PTS well test and water treatment package.

The liquids flow to the PTS kit, which includes the: Flowhead, Choke header, HP Separator, Oil and water to the Heat exchanger, and then the Intermediate Pressure Separator, Low Pressure separators.

From the low-pressure separator, oil is sent to the oil tank, water to the water tank, and gas is flared from all separators.

From the water tank, the water is pumped through the water treatment units and to the water polishing unit.

Clean water is discharged overboard. 

From the oil tank, oil is pumped to the heat exchanger and then through the flexible flowline and stored in the tanker.

The solids are separated from the flow stream and deposited in cuttings boxes for offloading and shipping to a disposal facility.

The oil is sent to tankers, the gas is safely flared, and the clean water is discharged overboard.

The well fluids are safely handled, the environment is protected, and the well is safely controlled during the well control process.

High volume liquid and gas processing. Skidded, Modular, the only emergency response package of its kind in the world. And ready. Always Ready.
