ROMAR International has completed the upgrade of our Packer Management System™ (PMS) located on a semi-submersible rig in the Central North Sea.

Our PMS system constantly monitors the slip-joint packers. If the primary packer fails or begins to leak, our system automatically energises the back-up. Consequently, greatly reducing the risk of an environmental incident. This upgrade now monitors both the upper and lower packers with audible alarms and the facility for multiple remote colour screens displaying upper and lower pressures trends and alarm settings.
