EC-Drill® Dual MPD Influx Management

EC-Drill® Dual MPD system safely circulating out influx with zero operating margin in Deepwater well. Safely circulating out an influx in a Deepwater well with zero operating margin. In addition to narrow operating windows the friction from the long Chokeline makes it difficult to circulate out the influx, while other well control methods are time consuming.
