30-in Annular BOP | SLB

30-in

Annular BOP

Onshore BOP on a land rig.

The 30-in annular BOP controls wellbore pressure up to 1,000 psi to maintain safe operations. The 30-in diameter allows large pipe and casing to pass through. The single annular packing element can seal on any size pipe or no pipe, as with openhole operations.

Diverter capabilities

The 30-in annular can divert wellbore fluids of up to 1,000 psi away from the drilling area. The ability to use the annular as a diverter reduces equipment footprint and simplifies operations.
