— Clover Customer

 
 
 

 

Integrated cylinder systems and related equipment for industry-specific applications
Often, our customers require more than original or replacement cylinders for existing equipment; they turn to Clover for the convenience and cost-effectiveness of complete, integrated systems to perform a variety of specialized functions. We work with our customers to develop a complete system, including hydraulic power units, control panels, and any other system related component necessary to put a working package together. 

Oil & Gas industry — offshore applications
Clover offshore Oil & Gas capabilities include, but are not limited to:

 

Wireline tensioner systems

Clover’s drilling riser tensioner system applies relatively constant tension to the drilling riser and to compensate for movement of the rig due to environmental forces contributing to heave, rolling and pitching.

The system consists of multiple tension cylinders with high-pressure and low-pressure piston accumulators.

Other tensioner systems

Drill string compensator systems – mounted between the traveling block and hook, a Clover drill string compensator will work to decrease the influence of the heave of a drilling vessel on the drill bit.

Active heave compensator systems –AHC systems reduce the effects of vertical ship motion (heave) on the drill string and coring tools, reducing bit lift off and stabilizing weight on bit, reaction torque and rpm variations. Consisting of a passive heave compensation system in combination with an active heave compensation system Clover’s AHC system will maximize performance in relation to power consumption, increasing operating days per year.

Jacking systems – For all your marine jacking needs, we will design to the customers’ specifications.
   

Ram rig systems - A tensioner assembly for supporting a riser extending downwardly from a platform to a subsea wellhead.

 

Riser Spider Systems – Clover has designed and manufactured riser spider systems and will work with the customer to design to specifications. 

   

 

Skid Moving Systems – for the heaviest load we can design and manufacture a skidding system to move what you need moved.  A reliable, solid system to push or pull from tens to thousands of tons, Clover’s team will help you with your biggest jobs.
   
  Clover can design and build systems utilizing hydraulic technology to handle any process, project or task the customer faces. Implementing new technology and innovations to solve unique challenges is our strength.

 

 

Oil & Gas industry — land-based applications

Telescopic and single-stage cylinders that raise and lower the mast and drill floor on land-based drilling rigs.

Complete cylinder systems, including cylinders, hydraulic power units, control panels and specialized diagnostic repair services for land-based rigs.

Military and defense applications
Our service record is exemplary. Meeting the needs of military and defense contractors involves a great deal of feasibility study and R&D work performed by Clover’s own people. Many of the projects Clover has assisted with involve proprietary applications, such as a portable antenna mast deployment system, enclosed field command and control centers with motion control systems, and cylinders utilized in a proprietary missile launch system and mine detection equipment. Clover is also capable of providing hydraulic cylinders and systems for heavy-rig moving equipment, mast cylinders for submarines and more. View a
press release from the office of U.S. Congressman Dave Obey of Wisconsin announcing Clover projects on behalf of the U.S. Army to produce components for mobile shelter units and lightweight antenna mast system, and Clover’s contribution to a U.S. Air Force cargo loader project.

Custom applications for other industries
Clover is ready to address the needs of any customer in any industry where innovative solutions for loading, handling, functioning and environmental challenges need to be met. Contact us for the help you need.
