The more you connect, the more you save.
Your safety matters.Offshore, the external environment can expose bothequipment and operators to harsh elements. That's whyminimizing rig time is so important.
Unlike a flanged connection, Speedloc quick connectorscan be made up safely in less than 30 minutes - evenwith a large-bore stackup - thus minimizing your time inharsh weather or working under a BOP by nearly 90%.
In addition to severe weather and working under asuspended BOP, recordable incidents during installationwere also studied during the development of theSpeedloc. That's how FMC engineers equipment - welook at your real-world needs and deliver the tools for asafer operation.
Offshore rig rates are on the rise and the struggle to control costs is getting more
difficult every day. Since every wellhead connection needs to be made up orbroken out at least three times: nippling up the BOP; nippling down the BOP; and
connecting your next or final component; you need the quickest solution possible.
If you're drilling a single well or drilling on a platform, you save an average of
3 hours every time the connection is nippled up or down. The chart belowindicates the time savings of a Speedloc clamp compared to the installation ofa conventional flange:
You save 9 hours of rig time, no matter what - and with today’s rig rates,
Speedloc clamps do more than pay for themselves.

The two Speedloc designs offered by FMC, the Speedloc I &II, are configured to provide maximum compatibility for BOPs,risers, trees, and wellheads. A wide range of sizes andpressure ratings is available; from 7 1/16" 20K to 21 3/4" 2K.
With higher bending loads than conventional flanges andother industry clamps, the durability of Speedloc clamps iscertified through extensive FEA testing. FEA (Finite ElementAnalysis) predicts the stress levels placed on the clamps intypical working conditions, and when coupled with API 6APR2 (Annex F) qualification, further ensures Speedloc reliability.
