If a wave serpent rams and the resulting hit against the serpent is greater than s8, is that hit reduced to s8 from the energy field special rule? In the codex the entry says that attacks in close combat are not effected by the energy field just ranged attacks. What kind of hit would the ram be classified as?

No, because a "ram" is not a ranged attack.
