Abstract: An electric bonnet includes a housing; a guide piston disposed in the housing; an electric motor having a motor shaft; a rear housing connected to the housing; a gearbox assembly disposed in the rear housing, the gearbox assembly being coupled to the motor shaft of the electric motor; and a roller screw assembly disposed in the rear housing. A first end of the roller screw assembly is connected to the gearbox assembly, and a second end of the roller screw assembly is connected to the guide piston. Rotation of the motor shaft of the electric motor transmits rotary motion to the gearbox assembly, which transforms the rotary motion into linear motion using the roller screw assembly. The linear motion of the roller screw assembly actuates the guide piston.

Abstract: A system for an annular blowout preventer (BOP) includes a piston, a packer assembly, and a connector assembly. The connector assembly includes a linkage, wherein a first end portion of the linkage is configured to contact and couple to the piston and a second end portion of the linkage is configured to contact and couple to the packer assembly.

Abstract: A pressure-energized ring joint gasket such as a CX gasket for a clamp or other connector includes a cylindrical inner surface oriented toward adjacent sections of a subsea stack that are to be joined by the connector, wings that taper away from the cylindrical inner surface and end in a rectangular shoulder, wherein a portion of the rectangular shoulder is removed to create a boss, an upper groove, and a lower groove, and D-rings in the upper and lower grooves. The gasket can be used to connect adjacent sections of the stack and to maintain a seal between the sections whether the external sea water pressure is greater or less than the internal well pressure. A method for using the gasket for connecting adjacent sections of a subsea stack in offshore drilling environments is also provided.

Abstract: An assembly tool for assembling a blowout preventer including a hub configured for releasably coupling with a hydraulic package of the blowout preventer, a support ring coupled to the hub, wherein the support ring is configured for releasably coupling with an outer housing of the blowout preventer, and a first seating assembly coupled to the hub, wherein the first seating assembly is configured to apply a force against the hydraulic package to seat the hydraulic package within the outer housing, and react the force applied to the hydraulic package against the outer housing.

Abstract: A system, method, and seal assembly for sealing between two devices. The system comprising a first device, a second device, and a seal assembly, which is configured to seal between the first device and the second device. The seal assembly comprises an annular gasket configured to seal against a pressure internal to the system. The seal assembly also comprises first and second annular seals positioned on the gasket and configured to seal against a pressure external to the system.
