is a significant gap
between what we can and
have to deliver today. Due
to the surge in orders for
ESP strings and parts,
more than double of what was
forecasted in some cases, we are
under a lot of pressure to deliver
our products safely, at the right
quality and in the quickest time
possible.
Our challenge to meet the
increase in demand is on
many fronts. Limitations on
manufacturing capacity, long
lead times for raw materials
and outsourced components
are just the tip of the iceberg.
We also face difficulties in the
re-prioritization of orders from

CAPABILITIES
BACKGROUND
Identified in the table below are the key capabilities to be included within the
facility. Three vertical wells will be drilled, each with its respective test loop to
deliver a number of capabilities such as an upgraded Horizontal Pumping Test
System (HPTS) to accommodate increased OD pump series and power delivery.
Within the Concept Phase, two additional capability modules will be added to the
HPTS to accommodate viscosity and multi-phase simulation testing.
The Multi-Function Loop will operate under two modes Static and Dynamic.
In the static mode no fluid will flow under the test conditions, while in the dynamic
mode, synthetic oil fluid will flow under the test conditions.

LPT
NEWS
by Chong Te Xiang
UPDATES
A new configuration for the LPT
was introduced in 2011. A new Cell
Structure will be adopted where each
area in the facility will be represented
by a cell of 3 to 4 members consisting
of an Engineer, a Supervisor and a
shopfloor member from the area itself.
These individuals will be in charge of all
HSE-related activities in that particular
area and report to the team leaders
for their monthly tasks. Each team will
support either co-located work areas
(e.g. Gauges and Gas Lift Cell 1) or corelated cells (e.g. Foundry and Stage
machining). The new LPT structure can
be seen on all the notice boards and
is also available on Sharepoint [http://
srv005sgspe.fea.slb.com/SiteDirectory/
SPE/HSE/LPT/Forms/AllItems.aspx]
Our heartfelt thanks goes to all members
of the 2010 team who performed
diligently to meet the high-standards set
by the previous years 2009 team led by
Beng Yeow and Weiyu. Amongst some of
the challenges for the team was coping
with the risk from increased newcomers
on the production floor and launching
new initiatives like communications
(suggestion box) and the inaugural SPE
Healthy Living Competition.
The
annual
handover
meeting
mentioned earlier on was also marked
by 2 award sessions the ATG Bronze and
Silver awards for outstanding members
of the 2010 team, and the winners of the
Healthy Living Competition.

The winning team Health Zone received $500 worth of World Of Sport vouchers, while the runners up each
received a trial membership package which consisted of a Detox massage, steam bath, Vibrotherapy, Oxygen
cove sessions, and a Body Composition Analysis from Amore Fitness. On top of that, the 1st runner up team
also received an additional set of $80 worth of vouchers from World Of Sport!
Although API
SPEC 11V1 is
only applicable
to the Gas Lift
product line,
API SPEC Q1
covers
the
entire Quality
Management
System
in
SPE.
As a
result,
DHE
and
Gauges
were all affected
and resources were
deployed to revise
or
establish
new
procedures
to
meet
this standard. Numerous
trainings were provided to
relevant employees from all
functions to prepare for this
certification program. The quick
action that was taken in response
to a query during the official
audit showed our culture of being
solutions orientated.
Our Quality Management System
had already been audited 39 times
by 10 different DnV auditors. The
API certification opens a new
chapter in the life of SPE.
The scope of the API Monogram
License includes gas lift valves,
reverse flow checks valves, orifice
valves, dummy valves, wireline
retrievable valve mandrels.
