Evolving Field-Proven Performance
Featuring a time-saving rigid lockdown mechanism, the reliable SS-15® RLDe helps operators reduce costs, along with HSE and operational risks in HPHT applications.

Apply Pressure And Lockdown Simultaneously
Instead of requiring separate trips, the locking technology on Dril-Quip’s SS-15® RLDe induces preload at the time of installation. This increases resistance to bending and fatigue life – no additional tooling is necessary. With two million lbs. of lockdown capability, the SS-15® RLDe can incorporate a pressure-balanced annulus shut-off valve that closes off the flow-by between the casing after being cemented into place.
Our DXe® Wellhead Connector locking profile can also be added to the wellhead. Popular in shallow-water applications and on heavy floating rigs, it delivers industry-leading structural capacity and fatigue resistance while occupying less real estate on the top wellhead face. A standardized quality plan eliminates the need for independent purview, expediting delivery.
