Wellhead Control Panel Overview

WHCPs are failsafe control systems that monitor, control, and safely shut down wellhead safety valves like SCSSVs, SSVs, and HIPPS valves. They contain pneumatic, hydraulic, and electric components and act as both standalone systems and interfaces between plant controls and wellhead safety. WHCPs are used in oil and gas production to ensure safe unattended operation through applications like controlling wellhead valves, emergency shutdown, riser valves, pressure control, well testing, and partial stroking.

Wellhead Control Panel (WHCP)

WHCP are failsafe shutdown systems that contain pneumatic/hydraulic/electric


components. WHCPs are standalone control systems as well as an interface between
the plant control and the wellhead safety system.
WHCPs are applied to monitor, control (Remote/Local) and safe shutdown of Surface
Controlled Subsurface Safety Valves (SCSSV), Surface Safety Valves (SSV), and other
wellhead safety valves (Choke, Emergency Shutdown (ESD), High-Integrity Pressure
Protection System (HIPPS) in oil & gas production fields to ensure safe operation of
unattended wells/platforms.
WHCPs have multiple applications, which include, but are not limited to:
- Safe and Sequential Operation of Wellhead Valves (SCSSV/SSV/Wing Etc.)
- Emergency and Fire Shutdown
- Safe Operation of Riser Valves
- Flowline Pressure control
- Well Test Operation
- HIPPS /ESD/ Choke Valve Control
- Partial Stroking
