Cameron has designed, manufactured and delivered surface and
subseadrilling systems from the wellhead through the manifold to
meet a widevariety of customer requirements and drilling
applications. These systemsare being used in projects from Africa
to the Gulf of Mexico and repre-sent Cameron system solutions and
their array of design configurations.
Varied Drilling ApplicationsCameron has delivered complete
drilling systems for drillships, semisub-mersibles, platforms and
jackups. These rigs have rated water depthsfrom several hundred to
over 10,000 feet and operate from 5000 to15,000 psi working
pressure.
BOP Stack SystemsThe vast majority of these rigs use Camerons
18-3/4 TL BOPs in 4-, 5- and 6-cavity styles. BOP stack systems
also include Cameron collet connectors including the Model 70, DWHC
and HCH4 designs.
Motion Compensation SystemsA new addition to Camerons drilling
systems family is a range of motioncompensation systems including
deepwater compensators, deepwatertensioners, deepwater development
systems, riser tensioning systems,riser transfer systems and active
compensation systems.
Riser SystemsThe Cameron LoadKing and RF Riser systems are
utilized on several ofthese rigs to meet the demands of drilling in
deepwater. Both risersystems accommodate high tension loads and
provide for multiple control lines.
Control SystemsMany of the control systems used on these rigs
are Cameron ControlsMultiplex (MUX) BOP Control Systems. Camerons
MUX system featuresthe lightest weight, most compact pod in the
industry. In addition,Cameron offers the industrys only fully
retrievable MUX pods. Thepopularity of the Cameron MUX control
system has made CameronControls the industry leader in the supply
of drilling control systems.Cameron Controls also offers direct
hydraulic control systems for subseaand land applications.
Choke Manifold SystemsCameron has also provided the manifold
systems for many drilling rigs.Cameron provides complete manifold
systems from the surface panels to the chokes, valves, actuators
and pressure transmitters.

Cameron developed the TL and UM ram-type BOPs based on the
highlysuccessful U BOP design to meet todays demand for reduced
weight,lower height and easier maintenance. Cameron also makes the
DLAnnular BOP which features a lightweight, low profile design
available in single or double body styles.

Cameron offers the most comprehensive lineof rams and ram
packers in the industry. Ourrams cover the full range of drilling
require-ments including shearing high strength casingand drill
collars. Cameron also offers a choiceof rams for variable bore
sealing and hightemperature applications.
Cameron is known as a pioneer in variablebore sealing
technology. The name variablebore ram (VBR) is synonymous with
theCameron VBR. Cameron has now introducedthe second generation
VBR, the VBR-II. Thisdesign offers even more packer life than
theoriginal design. In addition, Cameron offersthe FlexPacker,
FlexPacker-NR and the DualBore FlexPacker which provide sealing
onspecific multiple bore sizes and fit into existingram blocks.
Cameron Elastomer TechnologyOne of the many ways to
differentiateCameron drilling products from other manu-facturers is
the elastomers used in criticalsealing areas such as ram packers
and topseals.
Cameron drilling products exclusively usethe proprietary
elastomers designed andmanufactured by Cameron Elastomer
Tech-nology (CET), located in Katy, Texas. CETprovides engineered
solutions to elastomericmaterial problems. For drilling
applications,CET has developed CAMRAM, CAMRAM350, CAMULAR, CAMLAST
andDUROCAM elastomer products to meet the rigorous demands of the
oilfield.
These products, when used in Cameronram-type BOPs and annular
BOPs, improveperformance, extend service life, reducedowntime and
lower operating costs.

Collet ConnectorsAs drilling depths have increased, Cameron
collet connectors haveevolved to address issues concerning higher
internal and externalpressures, increasing applied bending and
tension loads and extremeoperating conditions.
Cameron offers four collet connectors: Model 70 Collet Connector
High Capacity (HC) Collet Connector Deepwater High Capacity (DWHC)
Collet Connector HCH4 Collet Connector
The Model 70 is offered in sizes and pressure ratings for a wide
varietyof applications. The HC is similar to the Model 70 but is
designed to pro-vide greater preload to withstand higher separating
forces. The DWHC isa high strength drilling and completion collet
connector engineered forthe high loads encountered in ultra
deepwater applications. The HCH4connector locks onto an H4
wellhead.
All Cameron connectors offer high strength and stiffness with a
directload path through the connector and metal-to-metal sealing AX
gasketson the collet end ensure seal integrity. Positively
driven-open colletsegments during unlock ensure that no overpull is
required to disconnect.A secondary unlock function is also included
in each design.

AX and AX-AT Gaskets for Cameron Collet ConnectorsTwo
metal-to-metal sealing systems are available for Cameron
ColletConnectors the AX Gasket and the AX-AT Gasket.
The AX Gasket provides reliable sealing in the standard AX
Gasketprep. AX gaskets are available with resilient back-up seals
and areavailable to fit all connector sizes and working
pressures.
The AX-AT Gasket is used in the AX-AT Gasket prep with two
separate metal sealing surfaces. The AX-AT Gasket is designed with
an extended lip which fits into the AX-AT prep to provide
metal-to-metalprimary and back-up sealing. This secondary metal
sealing option isimportant in HP/HT wells where elastomer
contingency sealing may notbe acceptable; and for subsea
applications to provide additional sealingfor damaged sealing
preps. The AX-AT Gasket is available in 18-3/4"10,000 / 15,000 psi

Cameron offers drilling riser systems which accommodate the
stringentconditions encountered in deepwater drilling including
high tension loads,multiple control lines, and the need to respond
to changes in surfaceweather conditions. Riser sections are
available in varying lengths, wallthicknesses, and with preps for
buoyancy materials as required. AllCameron risers are supplied with
integral choke and kill lines. Cameronhydraulic or manual running
tools are available for risers utilizing eitherLoadKing or RF Riser
Connectors.
LoadKing Riser SystemsThe LoadKing family of riser connectors is
designed to meet the demandsof ultra deepwater drilling in water
depths of 7000 ft (2134 m) or more.LoadKing Riser Connectors are
available with tension ratings of 2.5 millionlb through 4.0 million
lb. LoadKing Riser Connectors incorporate many ofthe features of
the RF Riser Connector while holding the weight of theriser joints
to less than two percent heavier than a comparably equippedRF Riser
Joint.
RF Riser SystemsThe RF Riser Connector is designed to meet API
16R requirements withfewer components and higher capacity than
other flanged riser con-nectors. It is designed to meet the needs
of the drilling industry for adeepwater riser system that is less
costly and quicker to operate thanconventional systems.
