Wellhead Connectors

Wellhead ConnectorsThe Oil States range of connectors is designed to remotely connect the BOP stack onto the wellhead and to connect the LMRP onto the BOP stack. They are robust, simple-to-operate devices, designed and built to withstand the demanding loads that they will see throughout their long lifetime.

The connectors provide a rigid, pressure-tight, preloaded connection to the wellhead. They are relatively easy to maintain as main parts are easily replaceable, if required.
