MV Variable Speed Drives
Drive and soft start solutions enable operators to reduce costs, optimise processes and increase flexibility. With our unrivalled technical expertise Masterpower delivers drives solutions for ESP's, multiphase pumps, compressors and many other variable speed or soft starting applications.
With over fifty 3,300V to 11,000V drives in the field, Masterpower has the technology, products and installed-base experience to provide complete system solutions from project development and justification to project management, commissioning and comprehensive after-market support.
Masterpower Electronics has pioneered both subsea and topsides applications and are increasingly becoming the industry preferred choice for long cable ESP applications.
Powerflex 7000 PWM current-source technology offers low harmonics to the motor and the supply, has the lowest dv/dt of any MV drive and now has a number of features included specifically for Electrical Submersible Pumps including ESP auto tuning, cable length compensation, underload protection and an 'agitate' feature for freeing silted pumps. Specials can be accommodated including voltage taps for wider flexibility or low-voltage input with MV output.
The demonstrated universal compatibility of Powerflex 7000 MV drives with all makes of ESP gives operators groundbreaking freedom of choice of ESP vendors.

Transformerless MV drives save considerable deck weight and space compared to conventional drives with heavy transformers.
State of the art drive data communications combined with intelligent motor control technology is provided in Masterpower's fully integrated motor control systems.
This is the ideal power and control solution for multi-motor applications such as Mud Handling Systems where operators require comprehensive status information at their fingertips for every part of their plant being controlled.
Secure Power
For over 15 years, Masterpower have developed an enviable track record of colaboration with major operators as their chosen specialist for AC & DC secure power system engineering, equipment manufacture and operational support.
Personnel safety and the integrity of plant and processes are heavily dependant on the availability of secure backup power. Our UPS systems for upstream oil & gas are also respected within the nuclear power industry for their robustness and outright reliability.UPS solutions are highly configureable to meet the varied and challenging demands of each of our customers. All products are backed up by a level of engineering support and project documentation as demanded by the industry.
Virtually every secure power system relies on industrial battery solutions for its backup capability. Masterpower are distributors of all major battery technologies and have the engineering know how to specify appropriate battery configurations to meet customers needs under all load, environmental and aging conditions. Batteries can be provided with racking systems, enclosures or Ex boxes to suit customer individual needs and space contraints. 
To maximise secure power system battery availability and lifetime performance Masterpower have developed chargers, rectifiers and DC monitoring systems with state of the art diagnostics, alarm feaures and remote communication.
Our chargers & rectifiers are based on well proven thyristor technology for reliability, performance and lifetime maintainability. Masterpower's Intelligent Control Panel (ICP) is available as standard on all DC systems providing a text display and keypad interface for monitoring of critical system parameters, adjusting alarm levels and logging alarm events. The ICP can also perform fully automated battery string testing. Comprehensive individual cell DC monitoring systems provide additional peace of mind that any battery performance issues can be spotted and acted upon before they cause an unplanned and costly outage. Remote diagnostics and testing is invaluable when offshore personnel numbers need kept to the minimum.
Asset Management
Comprehensive solutions in asset maintenance, repairs, spares administration and testing are taylored to fit our customers unique needs resulting in significant reductions in costs.
The ability of Masterpower to support a wide range of systems regardless of original manufacturer is a key factor to consider how best to maintain power electronics assets.An initial review of clients existing equipment identifies any critical issues which may deserve immediate remedial action. This is followed by detailed schedules of maintenance to ensure maximum availability of the assets supported.
Turnkey Projects
Retrofit upgrades raise challenges but these are most evident when replacing equipment on operating installations. Complex projects are delivered on time and on budget thanks to Masterpowers detailed engineering, planning and project execution.
Integral with the customer's HSE programme, following the design of client's new systems, commercial and operational risk assessments are produced. Masterpower then take responsibility for management of cabling and construction teams, installation of temporary equipment and installation of the new systems, transfer of loads to/from the temporary equipment and any deconstruction required.Documentation provided meets the highests standards expected of the industry.
