Vertechs iRCD Pro Max is an electric integrated wellbore pressure control system, upgraded from iRCD Pro to support micro-flow, deepwater, and other specialized operations. It expands pressure control capabilities from WBP to PMCD, FMCD, and MPC, fully replacing the functions of RCD and MPD manifolds with a single solution. Enhanced by intelligent control algorithms, iRCD Pro Max delivers greater flexibility, precision, and safety while reducing maintenance requirements and operational risks. It is customizable for land rigs, modular rigs, and jack-up rigs, improving overall efficiency, reliability, and cost-effectiveness.
Enable transition from WBP to PMCD, FMCD, and MPC
Integrate all functions of iRCD and IPC MPD systems in a compact system (<75 ft² (7㎡)) with ±15 psi (±0.1 MPa) pressure control accuracy
Reduce deployment time by 60%, crew by 50%, and costs by 30% compared with a conventional MPD spread
Upgrade service available from iRCD Pro to iRCD Pro Max
Applicable to land rigs, modular rigs, and jack-up rigs
