Abstract
A system includes a rig control system for controlling rig equipment operable to perform drilling operations to drill a wellbore at a wellsite, wherein the rig equipment includes a drawworks for raising or lowering a drill string, a pressure control system for controlling a pressure control manifold fluidly connected with the wellbore, and a blowout preventer (BOP) control system for controlling BOP equipment. The BOP control system is communicatively connected with the rig control system and the pressure control system, receives rig data, pressure data, and flow rate data from sensors included in the rig control system and the pressure control system, displays information indicative of an influx of formation fluid based at least one of the pressure data and the flow rate data, and causes the BOP equipment to close about the drill string.
