PCB Assemblies: Oil and Gas Industry


oil industry gas industry pcb assemblies

One of the fastest-growing sectors in the world is the oil and gas industry. The players in this industry are using a variety of cutting-edge equipment for their drilling operations as a result of the rising demand for oil and gas-driven applications and technological advancements. These tools are exposed to difficult environments because drilling is frequently done in hot, pressure-filled conditions. A lot of this equipment uses printed circuit boards (PCBs), which were carefully designed and produced.


Our company, M-Tek, offers PCB assembly services to the oil and gas sector. For many years now, our PCB assemblies have successfully resisted the demanding requirements of the oil and gas industry.


Services for Oil and Gas PCB Assembly

At M-Tek, we have a strong passion for both experts and technology. As a result, we can continue to lead the way in electronic assembly and PCB assembly. We have successfully served clients in the oil and gas industry thanks to our abilities to provide custom box build electronic assembly and PCB assembly services.


In the oil and gas industry, electronic assemblies are used in extremely difficult environments at high temperatures and voltages. They are more likely to fail quickly as a result of this. The electronic assembly needed to meet these demands is filled with a gelatinous substance that shields it from corrosive substances, water, moisture, shock, vibration, and gaseous phenomena like corona discharge.


The Variations of PCBs:
We offer double-sided, single-sided, and multilayered rigid, rigid-flex, and flexible printed circuit boards. To make flexible PCBs, we use materials like polyester and PEEK. For rigid PCBs, we have been utilising flame-resistant substrates, epoxy resins, and woven E-glass.


Mounting Technology:
Printed circuit boards with through-hole and surface-mounted components can be made using our mounting technology. The automated optical inspection process is used to guarantee the quality of surface mount components.


Testing PCBs:
The PCB assemblies go through a variety of tests, such as functional testing, shock and vibration testing, and X-ray inspection.


Evaluation Of Performance:
Depending on the needs of your application, we can design multilayer printed circuit boards with hidden and blind vias, better impedance control, microwave PCBs, etc.


Applications for PCB Assembly Solutions in the Oil and Gas Industry

There are multiple products which can be produced through PCB assemblies, such as:


  • Acoustic-based liquid analysers
  • Process, gas, and chemical analysers
  • Systems that identify gases
  • Surface equipment
  • Alarms, displays, and rig communication
  • Oil and gas pump controllers
  • Viscometers
  • Downhole tooling equipment


Why Choose M-Tek? 

Since our establishment in 1996, we have developed enduring bonds with a wide range of clients and business partners. All of this is done to ensure that our investment in people and evolving technology is supported by the contract electronic manufacturing sector's product line.


Here at M-Tek Assembly, we have years of industry experience, and our team of skilled engineers will guide you through the entire process. You will also be helping to save the environment by using M-Tek for your PCB assembly for use within the oil and gas industry. We have achieved a
net-zero carbon footprint by using electric vehicles, and for every circuit board we build, we plant a tree! Contact one of our SMT and PCB assembly experts today for assistance. Call 01189 455377 or follow us on Twitter to learn more about our services.
