Rotary BOP
-
API 16 RCD Certified Rotary Preventer
The rotary blowout preventer is installed on top of the annular BOP. During underbalanced drilling operations and other pressure drilling operations, it serves the purpose of diverting flow by sealing the rotating drill string. When used in conjunction with drilling BOP, drill string check valves, oil-gas separators, and snubbing units, it allows for safe pressurized drilling and snubbing operations. It plays a vital role in special operations such as liberating low-pressure oil and gas layers, leak-proof drilling, air drilling, and snubbing well repairs.
