Blowout Preventers (BOPs) are critical safety components in oilfield drilling operations. Ensuring their functionality through rigorous testing is not just a precaution—it’s a necessity. At Kriloha Ltd, we provide high-performance BOP Cup Testers as part of our extensive line of oilfield products, designed to uphold safety, precision, and efficiency in demanding drilling environments.
In this blog, we’ll explore the features, applications, and benefits of BOP Cup Testers and their synergy with essential components like chevron seals, industrial seals, chevron packing, and vee packing seals.
A BOP Cup Tester is a specialized tool used to pressure test the ram or annular blowout preventer (BOP) by sealing against the internal diameter of the BOP bore. This is essential to ensure the integrity and performance of BOP systems before and during drilling operations.
BOP Cup Testers are equipped with a durable rubber cup and robust mandrel body to seal effectively and withstand extreme pressure.
High-pressure resistance for annular and ram-type BOPs
Heavy-duty elastomer cups that form a secure seal
Customizable sizes for different BOP specifications
Corrosion-resistant materials for long-term usage
Easy handling and installation for operational efficiency
Testing BOPs is a mandatory operation in drilling to prevent catastrophic blowouts. BOP Cup Testers ensure:
Reliable pressure integrity before drilling commences
Compliance with international safety standards
Enhanced operational safety
Prevention of unexpected equipment failure
As a core part of oilfield products, these testers significantly contribute to a safe and efficient drilling environment.
The effectiveness of a BOP Cup Tester largely depends on the quality of the elastomer used. Kriloha Ltd uses special elastomers also found in our sealing products, including:
Chevron seals
Chevron packing
Vee packing seals
Industrial seals
Resistance to oil-based and water-based drilling fluids
High tensile strength
Excellent memory and flexibility
Withstand high-pressure, high-temperature (HPHT) conditions
BOP Cup Testers don’t function in isolation. They work alongside critical sealing systems:
Also known as chevron packing, these V-shaped rings provide reliable pressure sealing under dynamic conditions.
Used extensively in BOP actuators to maintain seal integrity under pressure cycles.
Layered sealing elements that are ideal for high-pressure BOP valves and cylinders.
Ensure minimal leakage and optimum sealing performance.
From O-rings to custom-shaped gaskets, our industrial seals are essential in every part of the BOP assembly, including the Cup Tester mandrel seals.
Proper testing with our BOP Cup Testers ensures the highest safety standards in drilling operations.
Made with top-tier materials and industrial seals, our testers offer long-term, reliable performance.
Simplified installation and minimal maintenance reduce rig downtime and testing delays.
Fully compatible with a range of BOP designs and easily integrates with chevron seals and vee packing seals for holistic system performance.
Available in various sizes and elastomer compositions to meet client-specific drilling requirements.
Our BOP Cup Testers are used in:
Onshore and offshore rigs
Exploration and production wells
Routine maintenance and pre-drill inspections
High-pressure testing in extreme environments
Their ability to operate under challenging conditions makes them indispensable among oilfield products.
