    Abstract: An accumulator system includes a chamber configured to receive a first fluid, a piston configured to move within the chamber to pressurize and drive the first fluid out of the chamber, a driving shaft coupled to the piston, a screw adapter coupled to the driving shaft, a plurality of anti-rotation shafts, and an electric actuator configured to couple to the screw adapter and to rotate the screw adapter to axially move the driving shaft. The piston includes a body defining a first aperture and a plurality of counterbores. The driving shaft is coupled to the piston via the first aperture. The piston is configured to slide over the plurality of anti-rotation shafts via the plurality of counterbores.

    Abstract: An apparatus for controlling a subsea blowout preventor (BOP) includes a control system for controlling a subsea BOP of a subsea stack assembly installed over a subsea oil and gas well. The control system includes a first topside control device and a second topside control device, and a first subsea control device and a second subsea control device. The first topside control device, the second topside control device, the first subsea control device, and the second subsea control device are each communicatively connected with the BOP and operable to control operation of the BOP. The first subsea control device is a portion of a first control pod of the subsea stack assembly. The second subsea control device is a portion of a second control pod of the subsea stack assembly. The first topside control device is communicatively connected with the second topside control device via a ring communication network.

    Abstract: A system includes a drilling fluid flow path configured to be selectively utilized with a well control drilling technique during a first drilling operation and a managed pressure drilling (MPD) technique during a second drilling operation. The system includes a first manifold assembly coupled to the drilling fluid flow path, wherein the first manifold assembly includes a drilling choke configured to be utilized with the well control drilling technique and coupled to a set of lines coupled to a blowout preventer coupled to a wellhead. The system includes a second manifold assembly coupled to the drilling fluid flow path, wherein the first manifold assembly includes a MPD choke configured to be utilized with the MPD technique. The system includes a set of lines coupled to one or more components of a wellhead assembly, wherein both the drilling choke and the MPD choke are coupled to the set of lines.

    Abstract: A system an annular sleeve configured to be positioned in an annular space between a first annular component and a second annular component of a drilling system. The annular sleeve includes a radially-inner annular surface and a radially-outer annular surface. The annular sleeve also includes a first annular seal element coupled to the radially-inner annular surface and configured to seal against the first annular component, a second annular seal element coupled to the radially-outer annular surface and configured to seal against the second annular component, and one or more axially-extending passageways extending from a first end to a second end of the annular sleeve. The annular sleeve is configured to direct a fluid flow through the one or more axially-extending passageways across the annular sleeve.

    Abstract: A rotating control device (RCD) system includes a housing having a bore, a seal element positioned within the housing, a piston assembly supported within the housing and configured to drive the seal element to seal the bore, and a bearing assembly supported within the housing and configured to enable the seal element to rotate relative to the housing. The bearing assembly includes a first bearing section positioned between the housing and the seal element and a second bearing section positioned between a piston of the piston assembly and the seal element. The piston assembly is configured to selectively actuate the seal element into a first configuration, where the seal element extends into the bore and seals with a tubular therein, and a second configuration, where the seal element extends entirely through the bore and seals the bore without a tubular extending therein.
