Full-scale test rig validates benefits of electric BOP - ago. 2025 - 4 p.

The development of a fully electric subsea blowout preventer significantly improves BOP reliability and performance while reducing weight, wellhead fatigue, emergency disconnect times and OPEX. The full-scale testing of electric shear ram actuators on an 18¾-in BOP at HMH’s electrification lab validates the achievement of such benefits.
