1 Integrated Drive Systems Optimizing the Oil and Gas Industry usa.siemens.com/ids Answers for industry.

2 A single-source solution for driving productivity Drive productivity Instead of sourcing variable frequency drives (VFDs), electric motors, gearboxes and couplings from separate vendors, Integrated Drive Systems (IDS) by Siemens provides a one-stop shop for your complete drive train. IDS by Siemens is the standard bearer for optimized drive systems around the world. Typically, end users have little choice but to accept the responsibility of ensuring that all drive components work together properly. This includes all specifications and coordinating information among suppliers. But when the system fails, the suppliers blame each other. When requirements are not clearly communicated, the integrator or end user will be on the hook for repairs and perhaps even warranty litigation. With an Integrated Drive System, Siemens provides all the components and is responsible for ensuring that they all work together perfectly, eliminating the need for the end user to coordinate and communicate between manufacturers. This saves money, and reduces the risk of a project, all while increasing the performance of a system and increasing uptime. An IDS by Siemens lowers the total cost of ownership because the drive system components are designed and sized to work together efficiently as a system increasing drive system efficiency and lifetime. Reliability is built in Recognized as one of the most reliable systems in the world, all IDS components come from a single source. Single sourcing delivers a single point of contact for maintenance and ensures that your system operates exactly how it was engineered to designed to your exact specifications and with your unique applications in mind. IDS customers can rest easy knowing that they will enjoy high availability levels. Siemens has tools in place to predict maintenance requirements through remote monitoring. This reduces the number of unscheduled downtime events. Should the need for service arise, Siemens provides a one-stop shop for any IDS service needs, which reduces the resolution time. What s more, this model results in diminished operational expenditure (OPEX), as it creates a scenario in which maintenance costs are predictable. Drive system reliability confidence begins with Siemens thorough understanding of application requirements, site environmental conditions, correct equipment sizing and the interaction between components.

3 Enhanced safety & reduced environmental impact Creating safer, cleaner oil and gas applications With increasing pressures, both financial and regulatory, environmental impact and safety are top priorities for any operation. By optimizing your drive train, all components are engineered to integrate seamlessly, ensuring that your equipment operates efficiently and safely, and keeping your system compliant. With a greater concern for the environment also comes an even greater responsibility to ensure the safety of all end users and engineers who are actively involved with operating and maintaining the drive system, which is why safety is the top priority when it comes to designing an IDS by Siemens. By leveraging its lower maintenance needs, smaller footprint, quieter operation, and explosion-proof components, Siemens can custom-design a drive system to operate safely in the most demanding environments. An ideal solution for oil and gas, with proven success solving mission-critical applications: Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Export Terminals VFDs and motors can be integrated to increase throughput, reliability, and performance in compression and pumping. Refining IDS with MV/HV motors, MV drives, couplings and services address applications such as multiple compressors, pumps, and fans to move gas assets efficiently. Pipeline Terminals With over 500 units installed around the world, Siemens has long demonstrated the reliability and efficiency of its pipeline compressor applications to the industry. Offshore Platforms Siemens supports water injection pumps, gas compression, dead oil pumps, cooling pumps and methanol injection in offshore situations to increase overall oil recovery from an existing well or reservoir. Drill Rigs Siemens provides Integrated Drive Systems for drilling applications such as rotary tables, mud agitators, mud pumps, drawworks and auxiliary lifts. IDS creates efficiencies in engineering processes. An optimally designed IDS reduces space around the machine, maximizes energy efficiency, optimizes dynamic performance and increases reliability.

5 A fully optimized Integrated Drive System is an innovative approach that can boost the service of a plant, cut your maintenance costs by up to 15% and cut your engineering time by up to 30%, as compared to purchasing individual components.

6 Optimization for increased uptime and efficiency Fully integrated for optimal efficiency All across the United States, there are oil refineries and wells still using gas turbine drives and fixed-speed electric motor drives. The productivity of these drives is inefficient, they are expensive to maintain, and they present substantial risk for significant downtime in the event of a breakdown. A fully optimized system can make a world of difference in an industry with as much constant demand as the oil and gas industry. That s why the Siemens IDS is engineered by experts with total optimization in mind, going beyond each individual component to deliver a completely integrated system. In order to do so, Siemens evaluates the cost drivers of each drive system component, scrutinizes design parameters and considers optimal component sizing, an assessment that can only be conducted with Siemens levels of product, application and system expertise. When it comes to efficiency, the Siemens IDS is unmatched. In fact, IDS creates efficiencies in the engineering processes. An optimally designed IDS can reduce the footprint of the drive system while allowing for seamless integration of all components, saving you time and money on engineering and installation. Combined with the optimal performance of an IDS maximizing energy efficiency and increasing reliability, the total cost of ownership is greatly reduced for any drive system. By comparison, gas turbines have efficiencies of around 40%, whereas the efficiency of an electric variable-speed drive system is greater than 95%. Electric variable-drive systems are much more efficient in their operation and can provide the user with broader and more accurate speed control, minimizing operational expenditures and improving profitability for the end user.
