Introduction
For more than thirty years, Cameron has been a leader in designing turnkey water
injection systems. Our experience extends from offshore to onshore applications,
including fixed structures and floating production facilities. Our product portfolio has
been developed to address a wide variety of feed water conditions, including sea, river,
aquifer and produced water for reinjection.
Managing water quality for oil and gas production and processing is a complicated
industry issue. With an emphasis on technology, research and development, we continue
to develop technologies that reduce weight and space as well as provide performance
improvements and reductions in both operating costs and capital expenditures.
High-quality, cost-effective, reliable and environmentally friendly water solutions are
mandatory to the successful operation of facilities worldwide. We will work closely
with you to engineer solutions for various water quality treatment issues.

METROL SEA-SCREEN Coarse StrainersOn offshore platforms where space and weight are
important, The METROL SEA-SCREEN strainer offers a
more efficient filtration per unit
area than competing units.
A robust, high-efficiency
unit with a long and
proven pedigree
Removes silt, plankton
and algae, typically 98%
of particles which are
larger than 100 m
Uses spool assembly,
incorporating tubular
wedge-wire elements, held between two
plates and housed within a pressure vessel
Backwashing is either automatic or manual
Efficient and effective requires very low volumes of
backwash water
Media FiltersWith no internal moving parts and minimal maintenance,
Camerons media filters are designed to treat water with
low operating costs, making them suitable for injection
for secondary recovery.
Capable of removing 98% of particles larger than 2 m
Proprietary internals are specifically designed to
distribute and collect water evenly over the entire cross-
section of the filter bed
METROL SEA-CELL ElectrochlorinatorsMETROL SEA-CELL electrochlorinators generate
hypochlorite from seawater through an in-situ electric
process. Hypochlorite, one of the most effective oxidizing
biocides in use today, is used to prevent life growth of all
living organisms.
Approved by BASEEFA for use in areas requiring
certified electrical apparatus
Self-cleaning unit does not require acid treatment to
maintain efficiency
Can be operated up to 100% of rated output through
the use of phase angle controlled thyristor rectifiers
Unique configuration of the SEA-CELL electrochlorinator
eliminates the requirement for secondary enclosures
commonly used in other designs
BFCC Copper-Chlorine SystemsThe BFCC system is a highly
efficient compact copper-chlorine
generator for the prevention
of settlement and growth of
biological organisms in water
systems a proven anti-biofoulant
control system.
No moving parts
No hydrogen tank required
Low CAPEX and OPEX
No additional chemicals needed
Low power and maintenance requirements
Compact unit size
2
No need for additional consumable cartridge filters
Compact packaging of UF membrane within custom-
made modules
NATCO Sulfate-Removal SystemCamerons NATCO sulfate-removal membrane systems are
designed to remove divalent sulfate ions from seawater to
the required level for injection.
Sulfate-removal membranes can be used in two main
areas. The first area is reservoir scale control, where the
presence of certain salts in the formations (e.g., barium
and strontium), in conjunction with the sulfate present
in seawater, combine to form scale in the reservoir. The
second area is souring control, where sulfate-reducing
bacteria present in the formation consume the sulfate
in the seawater and produce H2S as a byproduct. H2S
is acidic, corrosive and very detrimental to equipment
operation and lifespan.
No loss of efficiency during severe conditions when
solids loadings are particularly high, such as during
bloom periods
Designed to uphold your specified filtered water
quality by ensuring a consistent media quality
The system is cleaned by utilizing a backwash initiated
either by a timer or by a pre-set pressure drop across
the media bed air scouring of the bed often is used
to assist with the cleaning sequence
POLYMEM UF UltrafiltrationCameron is the exclusive provider of Polymem UF
technology to the oil and gas industry. Polymem SA,
France, are the developers and manufacturers of the
ultrafiltration (UF) membrane elements.
Significant reduction in operating weight compared
with traditional media and cartridge filters
High-quality treated water for injection or membrane
separation is virtually independent of varying feed
water quality
Utilizes a 0.01-m filtration threshold, so not only
inorganic (mineral) particles, but also bacteria and
viruses, are retained
The UF membrane is chlorine tolerant, so conventional
prechlorination can be used for control of biofouling
Allows a reduction in quantity of downstream reverse
osmosis (RO)/nanofiltration (NF)/sulfate reduction (SR)
membranes
Requires only simple maintenance procedures, such as
reduced frequency of cleaning and replacement of
RO/NF/SR membranes

Camerons sulfate-removal systems come with a clean-
in-place system for better membrane cleaning. The
membranes are packaged in individual FRP housings and
are placed in frames in a two-stage 2:1 configuration,
depending on the required flow. 75% of the inlet flow
is produced as a low-sulfate product stream.
Used in conjunction with other Cameron technologies
(e.g., Polymem UF), design fluxes can be optimized to
reduce the quantity of membranes and CAPEX
The sulfate removal membrane systems can be
customized to meet unique project requirements
With the complete range of technologies that Cameron
possesses, a full system process guarantee is available,
rather than just for individual equipment items
Reverse Osmosis SystemsCameron designs and builds desalination systems utilizing
reverse osmosis (RO) membrane technology. Membrane
systems are becoming an industry standard as customers
seek cost-effective, reliable and environmentally friendly
solutions.
Camerons RO system removes a significant amount of the
dissolved ionic species from the seawater. The process is
similar to sulfate removal though only 50% of the inlet flow
is produced as low salinity product. The process can be used
in a number of ways to improve your performance.
Enhance oil recovery by injecting low-salinity water into
the reservoir
Sulfate removal can be used in conjunction with RO to
achieve a blended product satisfying both salinity and
divalent salt criteria
Improve performance of desalters
Provide potable water
Reduce the need for chemicals and biocides by reducing
consumption of washwater and post-conditioning to a
pH level to avoid naphthenate scaling
Vacuum and Gas Strip DeaeratorsWe can employ several processes to remove dissolved
oxygen from the feed water before it is injected into the
reservoir. These include Camerons vacuum (VDX) and gas
strip (GDX) systems.
Prevents corrosion of downstream plant and equipment
and inhibit aerobic bacterial growth
Corrosion-resistant tower internals maximize mass
transfer and give effective distribution and redistribution
of the liquid phase
Can be used on FPSOs where motion is an important
factor in the design of towers and internals
4
Provide solutions where height and center of gravity
are not major issues, as is often the case on large
floating installations we continue to develop compact
alternatives for use in deepwater environments
VDX and GDX systems can achieve levels of oxygen
down to 50 ppb, so any additional removal of oxygen
to 20 ppb will require the addition of some oxygen-
scavenging chemical
Chemical Injection PackagesIn order for all component parts of the water injection
system to operate effectively, various chemicals need to
be introduced at alternate points in the system.
A range of chemical injection packages to suit
customer specifications
Chemicals include antifoams, oxygen scavengers,
scale inhibitors, corrosion inhibitors and biocides
Filter aids encourage very small particles to form larger
particles, which are more easily captured in the media
Anti-scalants injected into the feed of sulfate-removal or
RO membrane systems prevent mineral scale from forming
within the membranes as the salts become concentrated
Cleaning chemicals used on an intermittent basis clean
the membrane (UF/NF/RO) systems
