Expro Group Holdings N.V. (XPRO) announced on 2025‑09‑30 the first full deployment of its Remote Clamp Installation System (RCIS), a technology that automates control line clamp installation during offshore completions. The system eliminates manual steps, reduces personnel exposure in hazardous zones, and is developed by Expro’s Frank’s Tubular Running Services (TRS).
The RCIS was first tested in the UK North Sea during Q4 2024 in collaboration with BP, and the second deployment in Q2 2025 achieved a hands‑free upper completion at up to 15 joints per hour, with zero non‑productive time and no damage to control lines. The automated process cuts clamp installation time by roughly two minutes—about a 50% reduction per clamp—and boosts running efficiency by 25%.
Developed by Expro’s TRS division, the RCIS launch represents a breakthrough that enhances safety, speeds up completion operations, and positions Expro to capture additional market share in the offshore well construction segment. The deployment underscores Expro’s commitment to innovation and could translate into higher‑margin service offerings for its global customer base.
