Chimo Equipment, A Varco Company Website
Description
Chimo Equipment Ltd. was established in 1973, at that time, a need for better instrumentation on exploration drilling rigs was identified. Most measurement at the time was accomplished through pneumatic devices. Activity in oil and gas exploration was increasing dramatically and the need for more accurate and effective information became evident.
Chimo entered the market with electronic instrumentation that could record drilling fluid volumes, return flow, and pump strokes. This equipment allowed the driller to have more information directly in front of him along with the feature of audible alarms and permanent charts.
Within ten years "Chimo" became the leading provider of electronic instrumentation in Canada. In 1984 they released a Surface Mud System that integrated many features previously provided by two instruments. It was the Watchdog 1010 and still is one of the most reliable and trouble-free systems available. The Watchdog 1010 was also the first in Canada to be certified as Intrinsically Safe for use on the rig floor. With it's ease of use and operation over extreme temperature ranges - it allowed "Chimo" to become the primary supplier of instrumentation to the drilling rigs.
