Boots & Coots Services, a Halliburton Co. business, developed the Global Rapid Intervention Package (GRIP) suite of services to help reduce costs and deployment time in the event of subsea well control events.
GRIP provides well planning and well kill capabilities facilitated by the company’s global logistics infrastructure and existing product service lines. This includes both an inventory of well test packages, coiled tubing units and relief well ranging tools.
GRIP also features the new high-temperature, 15,000-psi RapidCap air-mobile capping stack, which incorporates a specially designed gate valve-based system making it significantly lighter, less expensive and more mobile than options currently on the market, the company said.
Capping stack systems currently available are extremely difficult to deploy due to their size and weight, Halliburton said in a July 11 press release.
RapidCap can reduce deployment time by up to 40% over competing systems.
GRIP and the RapidCap air-mobile capping stack are expected to be ready for deployment by year-end 2016.
