POS-GRIP Production Wellhead (Green Award)
Net Zero / Leak Free Wellhead
Page last modified
April 11 2024
POS-GRIP enables Net Zero operations at the wellhead, which is an essential aspect of any new production wellhead. We know that the world is facing a critical situation when it comes to climate change, and regulators and governments across the world are calling upon the oil and gas industry to significantly reduce or ideally eliminate (fugitive) emissions wherever possible.
The POS-GRIP HG® metal seal provides a permanent, yet reversible seal which acts as if the components have become one. The process delivers verifiable and repeatable results, which can be monitored to stay within specified stress limits.
The technology uses simple engineering, using fewer components, reducing further the need for future interventions. The technology can be used on a variety of oil and gas applications and has been successfully installed on ultra-high pressure and temperature projects, up to 20,000 psi at 375ºF.
