Increase system reliability and reduce total cost of ownership
EWC
Pressure on-demand BOP control system
Overview
All-electric well control enhances performance and reduces costs
Our EWC™ electric well control technologies feature the EWC pressure on-demand BOP control system that replaces conventional accumulator systems. This powerful, compact electric system eliminates constraints on usable volume requirements. The system significantly elevates performance while reducing total cost of ownership. Its intuitive digital interface delivers real-time insights into equipment performance and conditions, enabling operators to reduce well construction costs.
Applications
Control and monitor BOP systems onshore and offshore
