Why Choose ClampOn

The leading supplier of topside and subsea non-intrusive Ultrasonic Intelligent Sensors

ClampOn delivers reliable monitoring solutions that help operators manage their assets with confidence. Our technology is designed to perform in the most demanding environments, providing accurate, real time data that supports safer and more efficient operations. With more than three decades of experience in acoustic monitoring, we have earned the trust of operators worldwide by offering products that simply work.

Our non intrusive sensors require no modification to the pipe and can be installed quickly, even in challenging locations. Once in place, they provide continuous insight into sand production, flow conditions and pipe integrity, helping customers make informed decisions that reduce risk and optimize production. Every sensor is backed by extensive testing, robust engineering and a strong focus on long term reliability.

We believe in close collaboration with our customers. From early technical discussions to installation support and long term follow up, we work to make sure every system delivers value throughout the lifetime of the field. Our global team is ready to assist wherever and whenever needed.

Choosing ClampOn means choosing technology that is proven, accurate and built to last. It means working with a partner who understands the challenges of modern energy production and who is committed to helping you operate safely and efficiently.

ClampOn has since the beginning in 1994 grown to be the largest supplier of passive ultrasonic systems for sand/particle detection to the international energy industry.

All products supplied by ClampOn, sand detector / sand monitor, PIG detector / PIG signaller, corrosion-erosion monitor, vibration monitor, leak monitor, flow temperature monitor, choke condition monitor and BIRD monitor are based on the same, well proven technology platform. Both the topside and the subsea instruments incorporate Digital Signal Processing (DSP), complete digitalization eliminating analogue filters, circuits and amplifiers.

The ClampOn instruments processes all data in the sensor itself (patented principle), thus enabling the instrument to discriminate between sand-generated and flow-generated noise. This is of importance to the user since changes in flow rates and the gas/oil ratio will not affect the performance of the system.

Always Numero Uno!

The first ClampOn sensor was installed in BP’s Gyda field in the North Sea. Since then ClampOn has supplied more than 25.000 topside and subsea instruments globally.

From the very beginning, ClampOn’s business strategy has been to develop and manufacture instruments based on a generic technology platform, and at the same time perform different operations. The Ultrasonic Intelligent Sensor technology is the platform for all of our products. The sensor functions are determined by different versions of ClampOn software.

Some of the most important factors for our success have been the commitment to quality products based on ease of assembly, selection of components, subcontractors, in-house production and standardization in providing ‘state-of-the-art’ solutions to our clients.
