Spring Design for the Energy Industry

Spring design is vital for precision, durability and reliability. We know oil and gas operations involve extreme environments and temperatures and that our springs need to withstand these temperature variations to deliver reliability and stability.

Across valve control, shock absorption, pressure control and regulation, load support, sealing mechanisms, wellhead and downhole tools, corrosion resistance, and temperature stability - accurate spring design is critical to ensuring the safety and efficiency of operations.

We have been a specialist energy industry spring supplier for decades, securing the best minds, materials and state-of-the-art manufacturing processes to deliver spring longevity.

Performance

Maximising the potential of a spring by delivering exceptional design, development and manufacturing production processes is a key part of our customer experience methodology. It is also the winning performance formula behind a spring component’s success. Our audited, tested, recognised and reliable multi-stage manufacturing process guarantees the competitiveness and quality of your product.

Materials

The most distinguishing property of a coil spring's material is its mechanical strength and elasticity. The four key components when considering material choice are chemical composition, surface property, tensile strength and size. These essential elements build the structure from which our engineers bespoke design springs, to meet the demands of the application of springs within the energy industry and to optimise the purpose and power.

Springs in the Energy Industry

Our springs switch on offshore explorations delivering several vital functions across various applications in oilfield services and offshore drilling equipment.

We have worked with major brands within the energy sector for decades and our years of expertise enables us to understand the specific requirement and production optimisation of each application - a crucial factor in spring design and material selection. Whether it's maintaining pressure, supporting loads, equipment for reservoir engineering or ensuring the proper functioning of valves, our springs contribute significantly to the reliability and safety of oil and gas operations.

 

Enquire About Springs

Valve Actuation

Our springs are an essential component in valve actuation systems, providing the necessary force to open and close valves, controlling the flow of fluids or gases in pipeline systems.

Shock and Vibration Absorption

Our springs are commonly used to absorb the shock and vibrations in the heavy machinery and equipment commonly used on drilling rigs.

Pressure Regulation

Our springs are integral to pressure relief valves, crucial for maintaining optimal pressure levels in various pipeline systems.

Load Support

In equipment such as pumps, compressors, and other mechanical components, our compression springs and tension springs play a key role in supporting loads and maintaining tension.

Sealing Mechanisms

Our springs are often incorporated into sealing systems to ensure the integrity of connections in oil and gas equipment. They contribute to preventing leaks and maintaining the safety and efficiency of processes.

Wellhead and Downhole Tools

Springs are also used in wellhead and downhole tools, to assist in managing downhole pressures and forces. They contribute to the functionality and reliability of tools employed in well stimulation, drilling, completion, and production operations.

Engineering & Capabilities

The unique demands on a spring, as a consequence of the load and force requirements and temperature, fatigue and pressure resistance needed by the energy industry, require specialist knowledge and manufacture.

As a leading energy industry spring manufacturer, we have years of R&D and experience harnessing the power of spring design to deliver the exact engineering required to optimise oil and gas applications.

All our projects start with consultations; establishing drawings to meet precise specifications and designing prototypes that evolve as the product design process evolves. Performance handling assessments, technical reviews, safety testing and failure analyses collaborate to direct the demands of the precision spring and secure the right custom springs for the right application performance. Manufacturing and consistently testing samples before full production runs, is all part of the product service and customer culture we believe in to achieve product optimisation for our customers.

Quality Materials

Springs made from corrosion-resistant materials, such as special alloys, are crucial in the energy industry, where exposure to corrosive substances is common. As a spring solutions and materials provider we conform to ISO 9001, 14001 and 45001, NACE MR0175 and API 6a CRA regulations.

Material and where it is sourced matters. High strength alloys are the number one choice for high performance springs as they deliver incredible durability, strength and weight to performance ratios.

Extremely resistant to corrosion, pressure and high temperatures, super alloy springs deliver advanced performance properties. Alongside our chrome alloys, we also use Nickel, Cobalt and Titanium materials. We also request that our material suppliers determine the source of specified minerals to ensure they do not come from conflict areas.

The Process

Collaboration is key and the start point of all spring design is the consultation between our technical teams and the customer. Technical designs advance through quality teams and engineers before entering the prototype phase, sample provision, testing and then mass production.

Precision Manufacturing

We’re leaders in our field because we manufacture from the highest quality wire and feature the most advanced coiling technology. This results in us excelling at international spring quality standards, delivering spring solutions that deliver the right product for the right application and guaranteeing uniformity and precision from the first spring to the last.

Heat Treatment

An essential part of the manufacturing process, heat treatment removes residual stress introduced to the material during the coiling process. The treatment stabilises the springs dimensions for greater accuracy and increased fatigue life and our multi-oven facilities use forced convection technology to ensure the material is uniformly heat treated from surface to core.

Quality Control

Our quality management systems conform to ISO 45001, ISO 90001, ISO 140001 and IATF16949 and our teams are experts in their field. Our global network of quality engineers ensure the spring products meet the quality standards required by the design and are the one stop shop for quality control.

Case Studies in the Energy Industry

Heavy Duty Springs in Norwegian Oil Company

Lesjöfors Heavy Springs engineered a series of hard wearing heavy-duty compression springs designed to reduce the pressure on drilling equipment (and subsequent breakages) at sea.

Drilling at sea is extreme enough but when drill bits hit particularly hard rock they can break, leading to a lengthy and costly process of replacement.

We were asked to develop a special tool that would reduce the load when the drill bit came into contact with hard rocks.
