"We recognise that not only do we need the right superior quality and high integrity materials and sealing products for the application but that they also often need to be available in very short lead times"



The challenges associated with working within the Oil and Gas Industry are significant with operations onshore, offshore, subsea and subterranean, and when coupled with the stringent requirements to meet Health and Safety and environmental obligations, make this a demanding market.

Experience and commitment to working within tight deadlines and rigorous quality standards are a major part of MacLellan Rubbers service offering to our Oil and Gas industry clients be they production operators, drilling companies, specialist service providers or support businesses. We recognise that not only do we need the right superior quality and high integrity materials and sealing products for the application but that they also often need to be available in very short lead times to keep production output flowing and maintain operating costs.

MacLellan Rubber have developed many specialist materials for critical applications across a wide variety of operations within the Oil and Gas industry and continue to innovate and develop new materials and products to meet the increasing technical demands of ever more arduous processing conditions, challenging environments and safety and emissions compliance. Typical media environments include Hydrocarbons, Crude Oil, Corrosives, Saturated Steam, Condensate, Hydraulic Fluids, Chemicals, Acids, Caustics, and Gas.

The diversity of these production and processing activities has inspired a varied range of materials and tailored products in addition to our formidable range of sealing products. These include High precision hot vulcanised O rings with low compression set for non-standard, large diameter Gas Tight Seals on Shipping Tankers and Pumping Plant ; Inflatable Seals for rapid sealing cycle; Anti-slip Matting for Offshore Platform; Oil Resistant Neoprene Rubber Sheeting; as well as certifiable products that meet international Flame Resistant and Anti-Static standards.
