Abstract
A remote locking system for a blowout preventer (BOP) includes a locking mechanism configured to move to adjust the remote locking system between an unlocked configuration in which the remote locking system enables movement of a ram of the BOP and a locked configuration in which the remote locking system blocks movement of the ram of the BOP. The remote locking system also includes a gear assembly coupled to the locking mechanism, a motor coupled to the gear assembly, and an electronic controller configured to provide a control signal to activate the motor to drive the locking mechanism to move via the gear assembly.
