The BOMCO•CANSCO RX Ram Type Blowout Preventer (BOP) is built for surface (land, jack-up, platform etc.) applications worldwide and comes in a range of wellbore sizes, working pressure ratings, and body and connection configurations to suit the full range of well construction, completion, workover and intervention activities. It’s simple and reliable construction makes the RX Ram Type BOP ideal for operating in rugged, harsh environments and in extreme temperatures.
The ram blocks in the RX Ram Type BOP are pressure energised; initially by hydraulic operating bonnet pressure, and then by wellbore pressure which acts on the ram blocks to increase the effective ram sealing force. Wellbore pressure acts to maintain the ram block seal integrity in the event the hydraulic operating bonnet pressure is lost.
Other features of the RX Ram Type BOP:
• Forged bodies and main bonnet components.
• Corrosion-Resistant Alloy (CRA) inlay on all ring grooves as standard.
