FMC Technologies Subsea Systems is the world leader in maufacturing and supplying the oil industry with a variety
of subsea trees. It started in 1967 when FMC Technologies sold its first subsea tree in the Gulf of Mexico for
use in 70 feet (20 meters) of water depth. Through frame agreements, alliances and single contracts, more than
1200 subsea trees for more than 250 projects have successfully been delivered through the years.
For many years, the standard subsea tree pressure was 5000 psi, while today most of the trees are rated 10.000 psi
or higher. There has also been a change in the use of first vertical trees only to now a fair mix of horizontal
and vertical subsea trees.
Deepwater records have continuously been set, and at the moment the world record is held by FMC at
the Coloumb field in the Gulf of Mexico.
