GDS International has released its new hydraulic IBOP actuator that can open or close the top drive while it is in rotation, eliminating the mess often associated with other actuator models that must stop rotating before opening or closing. The compact body of this actuator also allows ample room for the elevator links to pass by, and its simple design means fewer parts and seals to be maintained. The field-installable GDS IBOP actuator is designed to fit any major brand top drive. www.globaldrillingsupport.com ?
