An Oil and Gas Boom Is Coming. Does Your Instrumentation Measure Up?
With boom times on the horizon for North American oil and gas, demand for pressure measuring instruments is expected to surge as companies start drilling for peak efficiency and safety.
Starting in the new year, federal drilling restrictions in the US are expected to be significantly relaxed. Red tape restricting domestic oil and gas production is also anticipated to be cut. Though tariffs are forecasted for foreign energy imports in the years ahead, industry experts also say Canadian oil and gas imports are likely to be exempted. The road ahead appears bright for industry players on both sides of the border.
With a long history of providing high-quality instrumentation for pressure measurement in the oil and gas sector, distributors and end users can count on Winters as a trusted partner in this coming industry surge. We provide an extensive range of analog and electronic offerings specifically for oil and gas applications, including pressure gauges, pressure transmitters, pressure switches, thermometers, RTDs and thermocouples. In addition, Winters’ lineup also includes a diverse range of accessories, including diaphragm seals, thermowells, valves and manifolds.
Winters’ flagship WinSMART™️ smart digital pressure, differential pressure and smart temperature transmitters are well-suited for the oil and gas sector’s requirements for automated, scalable and modular solutions. For the North American market, the LY16, LY36 and TY52 models are certified for use in hazardous locations. All configurations include 4/20mA, 4/20mA + HART, 1/5VDC or MODBUS communication options, allowing you to connect to any PLC or PAC device.
Our signature StabiliZR®️ band of liquid-free gauges are also especially ideal for the demanding environments where oil and gas applications are located. They provide accurate readings in high-vibration environments without liquid fill, and are able to withstand temperatures as low as -76F(-60C). This temperature tolerance far surpasses the cold-weather tolerance of traditional low-temperature silicone gauges, and is far more economical. These factors make StabiliZR®️ an ideal choice for protecting North American oil and gas production from the effects of wild temperature swings in the years ahead.
