The marine riser forms a continuation of the well bore from the top of the blowout preventer stack to the drilling vessel. The subsea well is drilled through the marine riser allowing the mud to circulate back to the mobile drilling unit. In addition to diverter systems, riser joints, telescopic joints and FlexJoint™ connectors, all marine drilling risers contain high-pressure choke and kill lines, booster lines , hydraulic and glycol lines. The Merlin™ Marine Riser System is also available with automated, hands-free makeup which dramatically cuts riser trip time and improves safety on the vessel. Oil States now also offers complete riser systems for subsea mining applications. Oil States provides a cost-effective, reliable, fast deployment with fast makeup, high-performance connection systems and accelerated delivery schedule. We are a proven provider of riser components and now provide complete riser packages.
