The off-shore mechanical pumping hydraulic units (UHBM-OS) are a new technological development in the field of hydraulic pumps. They make it possible to use mechanical pumping in off-shore oil platforms due to the design of the system.
It allows for the installation of the hydraulic actuator at the head of the well while installing the power unit at a different site of the platform; for example, another level which in turn isolates it from harsh environmental conditions and high tides. Additionally, said hydraulic actuator can be installed in slant wells.
