Vertechs iRCD Pro is an all-electric integrated wellhead pressure control system built on intelligent RCD technology. It integrates RCD and MPD manifold functions into a single compact unit, enabling conventional rigs to perform MPD operations with remote support powered by IoT connectivity. The system reduces equipment footprint by 60% – 75%, lowers weight by over 50%, shortens installation and maintenance time, and minimizes crew requirements, enhancing both efficiency and safety.
Enable transition from SBP to WBP
Integrate core functions of iRCD and IPC-MPD systems in a compact system (<4 m²) with ±15 psi pressure control accuracy
Reduce deployment time by 60%, crew by 50%
Applicable to land rigs, modular rigs, and jack-up rigs
