 Retrofit
• Switchboards:
– Require a window to be cut in LV section to access
UniConn face-plate
– Require dead-man door installed over the face plate
– OR: use stand-alone version when space not sufficient
• Variable speed drive:
– A longer face-plate would be required to fill in the hole
filled by HMI
– Replacing HMI with UniConn can be carried out in the
field in less than 15 minutes.

 Marketing Strategy
• NEVER SAY UNICONN IS A CHEAPER SOLUTION
• Things to highlight to customer:
– Provides superior ESP protection
– One platform for all ESP-related control and data
acquisition requirements.
– Enabler for making data gathering and analysis – through
single interface for all control and data acquisition
– The ideal platform enabling real time well optimization
process (LiftPro)
– Reliable and robust controller & data acquisition system

 Pricing Strategy - Guideline

• UniConn is meant to increase Schlumberger’s net

revenue by (at least) maintaining current revenue while
lowering our costs; it is not meant to be sold as a
cheaper solution.

48 MK

– Variable speed controller: US$2,600
– Fixed speed controller+Phoenix interface : US$6,000
– Variable speed controller+Phoenix interface : US$6,500
– Stand-alone Phoenix surface interface – US $4,400
