Trendsetter Awarded Subsea Closure Device Contract in Gulf of Mexico

Trendsetter Engineering, Inc. has been awarded a contract by a major operator in the Gulf of Mexico to deliver a 20,000PSI Subsea Closure Device (SCD) and an associated multi-year contract for storage, maintenance, and technical services should an offshore subsea well-control incident require SCD mobilization.

The SCD is an 18-3/4” bore, single ram assembly which may be deployed on an incident well before and below the capping stack. After successful capping or containment operations, the SCD ram is closed to facilitate safe removal of the capping stack followed by permanent plug and abandonment operations.

“We are proud to provide this innovative technology,” said Ron Downing, President of Trendsetter Engineering. “Trendsetter has demonstrated a highly successful track record of delivering mission critical capping and containment equipment and services. The SCD builds on that track record while furthering Trendsetter’s broad experience in delivering HPHT hardware.”

Trendsetter is the industry leader in the engineering, construction, and maintenance of capping and containment systems. Trendsetter has delivered multiple API 17 TR8 compliant HPHT projects since 2016, enabled by Trendsetter’s line of OEM HPHT subsea connection systems. The SCD will feature ram and wellhead connector equipment from National Oilwell Varco (NOV) and valves from Advanced Technology Valve (ATV).
