Compact gearhead
The Nexen Harmonic Gearhead has a short
and rigid design combined with a large, rugged,
crossed-roller output bearing that can
handle all combinations of radial, axial, and
overturning moment loads in a compact envelope.
The Harmonic Gearhead is available
with Nexen’s Roller Pinion System through
the integration of the gearhead into the pinion
without any added length. This allows for the
maintenance of zero backlash from the driving
motor shaft through to the driven load. The
RPS has a unique roller pinion/rack combination
that can be adapted to any application.

Automation communications platform
The KEPServerEX 5.9 industrial automation communications
platform has new electronic flow measurement
capabilities and Wellsite Information Transfer Specification
Level 0 drivers. The new solutions ensure that systems
and devices supporting pipelines, wells, and drilling rigs
can gather and share vital operational information. The
new drivers with EFM capabilities have the potential to tap
into stored data to manage, collect, monitor, and distribute
information. The WITS Level 0 drivers provide quick and
easy access to real-time drilling and mud logging data to
offshore drilling platforms, onshore rigs, well sites, and
other geographic sites.
