Embark on a journey of precision control with DCB Accumulators. Our cutting-edge DCB (Diaphragm, Composite, and Bladder) Accumulators are engineered to deliver unparalleled precision in hydraulic systems. Reel Power ME patented innovative depth compensated accumulators reduce subsea equipment weights, lowers maintenance requirements and improves equipment access. Subsea Accumulators are used to deliver hydraulic fluids to a wellhead blowout preventer, subsea control systems and subsea trees.

subsea equipment weights, lowers maintenance requirements and improves
equipment access. Accumulators are used to deliver hydraulic fluids to a
wellhead blowout preventer, subsea control systems and subsea trees. Among
other functions, accumulators are used to actuate the shear rams on a subsea
BOP stack.

The patented Depth Compensated Accumulators
use the pressure of the ocean’s water column to
boost the hydraulic pressure, thereby allowing a
fewer number of accumulator bottles mounted in the
subsea system. In some cases, the number of
bottles can be reduced by over 90%.
4. The Depth Compensated technology provides a fixed
volume output regardless of the changes from the surface
to subsea temperatures and regardless of operating
depth. The volume output is consistent and predictable
every time. The Depth Compensated Accumulators
perform subsea exactly as they do on the surface.
Conventional accumulators offer significantly lower volume
output at subsea due to changing temperatures and
pressures at subsea compared to the surface. In some
cases, conventional accumulators have only 15% of the
volume at subsea as they have at the surface or less in
deeper waters. Please visit subsea accumulator to know

5. It's our 10th Anniversary of our 1st Depth Compensated Accumulators (DCB) Deployment - we
have over 500 patented Reel Power DCB’s are operating worldwide. There are 5 key reasons for
the decade of success of the Reel Power DCB’s:
Customers can set it and forget it. Once the nitrogen pre-charge is set, they don’t have to
worry about changing for various water depths, saving non-productive time setting pre-charge
as well as minimizing calculations and personnel intervention. Save weight and space. DCBs
can usually save weight and space on any subsea packages when compared to conventional
piston accumulators - some applications have saved 40% in accumulator weight! Greater
efficiency. DCBs are especially effective in over 6000 ft water depths. DCBs are greater than
95% efficient by available volume while conventional are less than 15% efficient in deep water
depths. Lower maintenance. Generally, the fewer bottles result in a cleaner system with less
piping and lower maintenance requirements. Proven performance. The Reel Power Marine &
Energy DCBs are proven in deep offshore drilling BOPs with an installation base of over 500.
