We are proud to announce an expansion of our partnership with Teledyne ISCO to distribute ISCO pumps to the energy industry in Latin America. This new agreement will enable us to provide Teledyne ISCO’s superior pump technology to an even larger market.

Teledyne ISCO manufactures industry-leading syringe and reciprocating pumps for a wide range of applications. These rugged, do-anything pumps solve your toughest fluid delivery problems, from micro-flow to scale-up and pilot plant, pumping corrosive liquids, and safe operation in explosive atmospheres with the HLf Series.

OFITE is excited to announce a new partnership with Teledyne ISCO to distribute ISCO pumps to the energy industry in North America. Teledyne ISCO manufactures industry-leading syringe and reciprocating pumps for a wide range of applications. These rugged, do-anything pumps solve your toughest fluid delivery problems, from micro-flow to scale-up and pilot plant, pumping corrosive liquids, and safe operation in explosive atmospheres with the HLf Series. ​

Teledyne ISCO D-Series precision syringe pumps give you flow and pressure control throughout a broad operating range. D-Series syringe pumps can be metered with great accuracy and do not exhibit pulsation or flow anomalies typically associated with other pump types.

We are excited to announce the addition of a new product to our catalog. The Mud Watcher continually monitors and displays the density, viscosity, and temperature of any drilling fluid (mud, brine, completion fluid, etc.) used on a rig. It sends all data directly to the rig data acquisition system, mud logging unit, or dedicated data acquisition system. The Mud Watcher reduces the risk to rig personnel while providing more accurate, reliable information for better decision making.

Since the Mud Watcher can be operated unattended, it is no longer necessary for personnel to enter the shaker shack multiple times a day to take samples. This reduces their exposure to potentially hazardous conditions, such as high temperatures, hydrocarbon gas, or even H₂S.

Tomorrow, October 31, this website will be down for maintenance. Don’t worry! We’ll be back on Thursday, November 1 to bring you the same information and resources in a brand new package.

Until then, you can always reach us by email at sales@ofite.com or by phone at (832) 320-7300 or (877) 837-8683.

OFITE will be exhibiting at the SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition this month in Dallas, TX. If you will be attending, please stop by and see us in booth 2042. We will be showing:

• Model 4005 Automated UCA/SGSM with automated temperature and pressure control, touch-screen display, and integrated Static Gel Strength Measurement Device
• The all-new TLF-112 Triaxial Mechanical Properties Testing System, which measures the compressive strength, Young’s modulus, Poisson’s ratio, and tensile strength (using the indirect Brazilian method) of well cement.

Also learn about our services and new partnerships.

UPDATE: Due to inclement weather in the Houston area, we have postponed the MudChecker Lunch & Learn until early February. We will post another update when we have determined the exact date. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Stay safe out there!

PRESS RELEASE

A new partnership will see US-based OFI Testing Equipment, Inc. handle global distribution for monitoring specialists Salunda Limited’s hand-held drilling fluid measurement instrument, MudChecker.

OFITE will be exhibiting at the SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition next week in San Antonio, TX. If you will be attending, please stop by and see us in booth 852. We will be showing:

• Our latest Model 2040 Automated HTHP Consistometer with automatic temperature and pressure control and touch-screen display
• Model 4005 Automated UCA/SGSM with automated temperature and pressure control, touch-screen display, and integrated Static Gel Strength Measurement Device
• The Multi-Unit Retort incorporates five 50 mL into a single instrument for space-saving efficiency

We will also be discussing our all new TLF-112 Triaxial Mechanical Properties Testing System, which measures the compressive strength, Young’s modulus, Poisson’s ratio, and tensile strength (using the indirect Brazilian method) of well cement. Also learn about our services and new partnerships.

***UPDATE: The September 21 lunch and learn is full. We will be scheduling more in the near future. If you are interested, let us know and we will keep you updated about upcoming events. ***

If your company or organization has an interest in measuring the mechanical properties of cement and other materials, then we have an opportunity for you. On Thursday, September 21st, OFITE is offering a free seminar at our main headquarters in Houston, TX. Come have lunch with us as we talk about our new TLF-112 Triaxial Mechanical Properties Testing System designed specifically for the testing of well cement and other materials.

We are all shocked and saddened by the damaged caused by Hurricane Harvey. OFITE has been a part of the Houston community for over 30 years. We have seen how the people of the Gulf Coast region can come together in times of tragedy.

We have compiled a list of charities offering relief to those affected by the flooding. Please help. Donations are desperately needed right now.

We are open for business! We appreciate your patience during the storm and its aftermath. We are back and ready to work for you!

Our regular business hours are 8:00am - 5:00pm CDT, Monday - Friday.

The Retort measures the percentage (%) of oil, water, and solids in a sample of drilling fluid or cuttings. The results from a Retort test are essential to properly controlling mud properties such as rheology, density, filtration, and salinity. It is also important for evaluating viscosity control and solids control equipment.

Retort Kits have historically been large and bulky, taking up valuable laboratory space. The OFITE Multi Unit Retort combines five 50 mL Retort units into a single enclosure with a single electrical inlet. It saves space on the counter and only uses one electrical outlet. It also features a convenient stand for 50 mL Receiver Tubes (JP Tubes) and independent temperature control for each unit. The included software records and graphs the temperature of each unit over time.

For years, our quality management system has been ISO 9001:2008 certified. We constantly work hard to meet the strict requirements necessary to maintain this certification and we are proud of the results. Our quality management system helps us provide outstanding customer service, develop superior products, and continuously improve our operations. Now we are excited to announce two big changes in our ISO certification.

First, our QMS has been upgraded and is now ISO 9001:2015 certified. The 2015 revision of the 9001 standard reflects the changing business environment. With a greater focus on leadership engagement and risk-based thinking, we are confident our new process will help us be more efficient and improve customer satisfaction.

Advanced oil well cement testing goes beyond compressive strength. The elastic properties (Young’s Modulus, Poisson’s Ratio, and Tensile Strength) also play a major role in well integrity. But measuring these properties has always been a challenge. The equipment is often large, complex, and expensive. What is the solution?

The OFITE TLF-112 Triaxial Mechanical Properties Testing System is the first instrument specifically designed to physically measure the four major mechanical properties of oil well cement:
