Wild Well Control has developed the WellCONTAINED subsea containment system to aid operators in preventing, preparing for and responding to well control incidents. The system is rated for up to 15,000-psi shut-in pressure. It also features a modular design for quick deployment from its staging locations in Aberdeen and Singapore.
