This wellhead system features an internal latch, meaning there are no lock-down pins penetrating the wellbore. This system is a one-piece wellhead that connects to the surface casing and accepts hangers for both intermediate and production casing strings. Hangers and pack-offs are secured internally via a latch mechanism that is activated from the rig floor. This greatly increases safety while lowering the cost. Slip hangers are available should either casing string become stuck.
BOP Quick-Connect (Patent Pending). This BOP Quick-Connect attaches to the BOP stack and remains there during each new consecutive well. It uses a steel API ring gasket and the typical make-up time to the wellhead is under 15 minutes. This system is also patent-pending as it has the ability to replace the ring groove should it become damaged, without removing it from the BOP.
Rotating Casing Hanger & Running Tool The production casing can be rotated to the right while running the last joint of the casing. The hanger is a fluted mandrel style that allows returns to be taken during cementing.
