United Equipment Accessories (UEA) designs slip rings and rotary unions for equipment used in both onshore and offshore oil and gas operations. From drilling rigs to pipeline inspection tools, our components provide reliable transfer of power, signal, and fluid in rotating systems that are central to energy production.
Slip Rings and Rotary Unions for the Oil and Gas Industry
Built for Harsh Operating Environments
Oil and gas equipment operates under extreme pressure, temperature shifts, and exposure to fluids and abrasive materials. UEA components are built with corrosion-resistant materials, precision sealing, and rugged designs that support long-term use in these environments.
Applications in Oil and Gas Equipment
Our slip rings and rotary unions are found in a range of systems across the exploration, extraction, and processing stages, including:
- Drilling Rigs – Rotary unions transfer drilling fluids through rotating joints, while slip rings transmit power and signals to control systems and sensors.
- Coiled Tubing Units – Slip rings and rotary unions support rotation in fluid and data transfer for real-time monitoring and downhole tools.
- Pipeline Inspection Tools – Inline inspection devices use slip rings for data transmission during movement through pipeline systems.
- Top Drives and Swivels – Power and fluid rotation components allow smooth motion and control during drilling operations.
- Offshore Platforms – Slip rings and rotary unions are used in cranes, winches, and communication systems where continuous rotation is required.
Designed for Performance in Oilfield Conditions
UEA components are built to perform reliably under high loads, vibration, and contamination. Whether in remote land-based rigs or exposed offshore platforms, our products are designed to deliver long service life with minimal maintenance.
Custom Configurations Available
Oil and gas systems often require specialized slip rings or rotary unions due to space constraints, high pressures, or specific signal and fluid combinations. UEA offers products that match your equipment’s operating requirements.
