INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this manual is to give the operator a better understanding of the TOWNSEND "TYPE 81" RAM TYPE BLOWOUT PREVENTER and to familiarize the operator with the component parts and operation of the preventer. Proper maintenance will help detect performance deviations before problems occur during a well control situation. The American Petroleum Institute recommends practices RP-53 on blowout prevention. A current copy of this procedure can be obtained from the American Petroleum Institute. Townsend's "TYPE 81" Well Service Blowout Preventers are manufactured under the American Petroleum Institute Specification 16-A. Additional information is available in the following publications: 1. Townsend General Catalog 2. American Petroleum Institute (Practices RP-53) on Blowout Prevention or latest version 3. American Petroleum Institute Specification 16-A 4. National Association of Correction Engineers (Standard MR-01-75) or latest version The most economical sequence for test and inspection procedures should be consistent with safe rig operations. The maintenance of TOWNSEND "TYPE 81" Blowout Preventer is designed to coincide with a normal rig move or when the rig is being overhauled. TOWNSEND INTERNATIONAL BOPS manufactures the "TYPE 81" Ram Type Blowout Preventer as Mechanical or Hydraulic operated. The Mechanical preventer can easily be converted to a Hydraulic version with the exchange of particular component parts. The "TYPE 81" Preventers are available in single, double and triple configurations and are avaialble in 7-1/16" X 3M & 5M or 9" X 3M & 5M PSI ratings. This program applies to both TOWNSEND'S Mechanical and Hydraulic operated "TYPE 81" Ram Type Blowout Preventers.
The best preventative is a good maintenance program.

PRE-INSTALLATION INSPECTION
1. PRIOR TO INSTALLATION, CLEAN AND LUBRICATE ALL PARTS AND SEALS. ALL BOPS SHOULD BE CLEANED AND TESTED BEFORE BEING PLACED INTO OPERATION OR MOVED TO ANOTHER JOB. PROLONG INTERVALS OF NONOPERATION AND NO LUBRICATION WILL CAUSE SEALS TO FREEZE UP AND POSSIBLY BREAK OR LOCK UP THE PREVENTER. 2. VISUALLY INSPECT THE BORE OF THE PREVENTER TO CONFIRM THAT RAM BLOCKS ARE IN THE OPEN POSITION. 3. INSPECT FOR DAMAGE TO THE TOP AND BOTTOM RING GROOVE ON THE PREVENTER. CLEAN RING GROOVES PRIOR TO PLACING RING GASKET IN GROOVE WITH EMERY CLOTH AND LIGHTLY OIL. ALWAYS REPLACE RING GASKETS WHEN PREVENTER IS REMOVED OR PLACED ON WELLHEAD OR A JOINTING FLANGE. 4. INSPECT THE RAM BLOCKS AND INTERNAL CAVITY FOR PHYSICAL DAMAGE. 5. INSPECT THE RAM RUBBERS FOR CRACKS, DAMAGE OR MISSING CHUNKS OF RUBBER DUE TO EXCESSIVE USE. (IF RAM RUBBERS ARE DAMAGED OR WEATHER CRACKED, REPLACE THEM BEFORE OPERATING THE BLOWOUT PREVENTER.) 6. INSPECT THE STUDS AND NUTS TO CONFIRM THREADS ARE NOT DAMAGED. REPLACE ANY STUD THAT IS SHORTER THAN REQUIRED OR THAT HAS THREAD DAMAGE. CONFIRM THAT ALL STUDS ARE TIGHT WHEN THE PREVENTER IS PLACED OVER THE HOLE. 7. INSPECT ALL DOOR BOLTS TO CONFIRM THEY ARE ALSO TIGHT AND HAVE NOT BEEN DAMAGED OR ARE MISSING. REPLACE ANY MISSING DOOR BOLTS. 8. ON MECHANICAL PREVENTERS, CHECK THE CHAIN TO BE SURE IT IS SNUG AND THE SPROCKETS ARE PROPERLY ALIGNED. IMPROPER CHAIN ADJUSTMENT WILL CAUSE UNDO WEAR ON THE SHAFTS AND BEARINGS. KEEP ALL CONNECTIONS PROPERLY GREASED TO PREVENT WEAR.

INSTALLATION OF PREVENTER
1. BEFORE INSTALLING THE "TYPE 81" PREVENTER OVER THE HOLE, BE SURE THE TOWNSEND NAME PLATE IS NOT UPSIDE DOWN. THE NAME PLATE WILL HELP THE OPERATOR IN DETERMINING THAT THE PREVENTER IS PLACED OVER THE HOLE CORRECTLY AND NOT UPSIDE DOWN. THE LIFTING EYES WILL ALSO BE ON TOP OF THE PREVENTER. 2. A QUICK INSPECTION OF THE WELL BORE AND RAM CAVITY SHOULD SHOW THE SKID PADS IN THE RAM BORE CAVITY BELOW THE RAM BLOCKS. THE RAM BLOCK SEAL IS LOCATED ON TOP OF THE RAM BLOCK. 3. TOWNSEND HAS PROVIDED A LIFTING PLATE ON BOTH SIDES OF THE PREVENTER TO ALLOW FOR EASY LIFTING. LIFT THE PREVENTER WITH THE USE OF THE LIFTING PLATES AND PLACE PREVENTER DIRECTLY OVER THE WELL BORE. 4. JUST BEFORE PLACING THE PREVENTER OVER THE WELL BORE, PLACE A NEW RING GASKET IN THE FLANGE BETWEEN THE WELL BORE CASING FLANGE AND THE PREVENTER FLANGE. INSPECT RING GASKET GROOVES IN BOTH FLANGES TO CONFIRM THEY ARE NOT DAMAGED AND FREE FROM TRASH AND RUST. CLEAN THE RING GROOVES WITH EMERY CLOTH IF NECESSARY. 5. PLACE THE PREVENTER OVER FLANGE WITH THE OUTLETS OR OPERATING CYLINDERS POINTING THE DIRECTION DESIRED. 6. TIGHTEN ALL BOLTS AND NUTS ACCORDINGLY. ONCE ALL NUTS ARE PLACE ON BOLTS AND HAND TIGHTEN, BEGIN TIGHTENING NUTS WITH A WRENCH OR IMPACT. TIGHTEN ONE NUT FIRMLY AND THEN CROSS OVER 180 DEGREES TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE FLANGE TO TIGHTEN THE OPPOSITE NUT. ONCE THIS NUT IS TIGHTENED, CROSS OVER 90 DEGREES AND BEGIN TIGHTENING THE NEXT NUT, THEN CROSS OVER 180 DEGREES FROM THAT NUT TO THE OPPOSITE SIDE TO TIGHTEN THAT NUT. (GOOD EXAMPLE IS NORTH, SOUTH AND EAST WEST.) ONCE THE FOUR CORNER NUTS HAVE BEEN TIGHTENED, TIGHTEN ALL REMAINING NUTS GOING CLOCKWISE. RE-CHECK EACH NUT AS YOU GO CLOCKWISE AROUND THE FLANGE. EACH NUT SHOULD HAVE THE FOLLOWING TORQUE POUNDS OF FOOT PRESSURE.

INSTALLATION OF PREVENTER - (CONTINUED)

7. INSTALL THE HAND WHEELS AND U-JOINTS. THE OPERATOR MAY CHOOSE TO LENGTHEN OR SHORTEN THE DISTANCE OF EXTENSIONS FOR THE HAND WHEELS BEFORE PLACING U-JOINTS ON EXTENSION. NORMAL EXTENSION MATERIAL IS 2-3/8" DIAMETER TUBING. THE HAND WHEEL MAY BE WELDED OR PINNED TO THE EXTENSION. A CONNECTION ADAPTER HAS TO BE WELDED TO THE EXTENSION FOR BOTH THE HAND WHEEL AND THE U-JOINT. 8. ON HYDRAULIC BLOWOUT PREVENTERS, CONNECT THE HYDRAULIC HOSES TO THE PROPER HYDRAULIC OUTLET. PERFORM A WELL BORE PRESSURE TEST BEFORE PLACING THE PREVENTER INTO SERVICE.

OPERATION OF PREVENTER
1. TO CLOSE THE RAMS IN THE MECHANICAL PREVENTER AND THE HYDRAULIC PREVENTER BY HAND, TURN THE HAND WHEEL TO THE RIGHT. THIS WILL CLOSE THE RAM BLOCKS AROUND THE PIPE. IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED TO CLOSE THE HYDRAULIC BLOWOUT PREVENTER MANUALLY. IF PREVENTER IS CLOSED MANUALLY BE SURE AND OPEN LOCKING SHAFTS BEFORE OPERATING PREVENTER. 2. ON HYDRAULIC BLOWOUT PREVENTERS MOVE THE SELECTOR SWITCH ON THE CLOSING UNIT TO THE CLOSE POSITION. 3. TO OPEN THE RAMS IN THE PREVENTER MANUALLY, TURN THE HAND WHEEL TO THE LEFT. THIS WILL MOVE THE RAMS AWAY FROM THE WELL BORE. 4. ON HYDRAULIC PREVENTERS MOVE THE SELECTOR SWITCH ON THE CLOSING UNIT TO THE OPEN POSITION. 5. CONFIRM THAT THE RAMS ARE FULLY RETRACTED.
CAUTION
IF RAMS DO NOT FULLY RETRACT FROM THE WELL BORE, RAMS CAN BE DAMAGED OR THE INTERIOR BORE OF THE PREVENTER CAN BE DAMAGED WHEN THE PARTIALLY EXPOSED RAM PUSHES THE PIPE FROM CENTER OF THE WELL BORE.

FIELD WELL BORE PRESSURE TEST

WHEN PERFORMING A "WELL BORE PRESSURE TEST", IT SHOULD CONFORM TO API SPEC 6A, APPENDIX F REQUIREMENTS. TOWNSEND'S SPECIFICATIONS CONFORM TO THAT TEST. FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON API 6A, APPENDIX F SPECIFICATIONS, CONTACT API FOR THEIR CURRENT PUBLICATION OR CONTACT API THROUGH THEIR WEB PAGE. THE FIELD WELL BORE PRESSURE TEST CAN BE PERFORMED WHILE THE BOP IS IN A STACK, WELLHEAD, TEST STUMP, OR BLIND FLANGE. 1. TEST PRESSURE SHOULD BE THE LOWEST RATED WORKING PRESSURE OF ANY COMPONENT OR CONNECTION WHICH WILL BE PRESSURIZED DURING THE TEST. 2. THE WELL BORE PRESSURE TEST FLUID SHOULD BE COLD WATER OR DRILLING FLUIDS. 3. WHEN TESTING PIPE RAMS, CLOSE THE RAMS AROUND THE PROPER SIZE PIPE OR TEST PLUG THAT COINCIDES WITH THE PIPE SIZE OF THE RAM BLOCK AND RAM RUBBERS. 4. APPLY 200 TO 300 PSI WELL BORE PRESSURE FOR (3) THREE MINUTES OR LONGER TO CHECK FOR LOW PRESSURE RAM LEAKS. NOTE: THE LOW PRESSURE TEST FOR RAM LEAKS IS NOT PART OF API 6A REQUIREMENTS, HOWEVER; TOWNSEND SUGGEST THIS TEST BE PERFORMED SINCE THE INFORMATION CAN BE USEFUL. A. IF THE RAM IS LEAKING AT LOW PRESSURE, THE PRESSURE GAUGE ON THE CLOSING UNIT OR TEST UNIT WILL INDICATE THE LEAK BY DECREASING IT'S RATING. B. IF THE RAMS ARE VISIBLE, WATER WILL BE LEAKING PAST THE RAM RUBBER SEALS. 5. INCREASE THE WELL BORE PRESSURE TO THE BOP'S RATED WORKING PRESSURE. (CHECK BOP'S WORKING PRESSURE CHART ON SPECIFICATION SHEET.) HOLD THE PRESSURE FOR (3) MINUTES OR LONGER TO CHECK FOR LEAKS. A. A LEAK CAN BE DETECTED BY A DECREASE IN PRESSURE ON THE PRESSURE GAUGE ON THE TEST UNIT OR CLOSING UNIT.

HYDRAULIC PRESSURE TEST

API SPECIFICATION 16A DOES NOT COVER HYDRAULIC PRESSURE TEST FOR BLOWOUT PREVENTERS. DIFFERENT MANUFACTURERS REQUIRE DIFFERENT TEST BASED ON THE DESIGN OF THE BLOWOUT PREVENTER. THE BOP MAY BE TESTED IN A STACK, WELLHEAD, TEST STUMP OR BLIND FLANGE. PERFORM THE TEST WITH WATER OR DRILLING FLUIDS. 1. CONNECT THE CLOSING LINES TO THE BLOWOUT PREVENTER. 2. SET TEST PLUG OR DRILL PIPE IN THE PREVENTER, IF TESTING SPECIFIC SIZE RAMS, RAM BLOCKS AND RAM RUBBERS SHOULD MATCH TEST PLUG OR PIPE. 3. BOTH THE OPENING AND CLOSING HYDRAULIC LINES MUST BE EQUIPPED WITH A VALVE AND A GAUGE BETWEEN THE VALVE AND THE BOP. 4. THE HYDRAULIC TEST FLUID SHOULD BE THE TYPE OF FLUID USED ON THE WELL SERVICE UNIT OR RIG. 5. TOWNSEND SUGGEST THAT THE RAMS BE CLOSED AND OPENED A FEW TIMES TO RELEASE AIR IN THE SYSTEM BEFORE TESTING. 6. CHECK FOR CLOSING CHAMBER SEAL LEAKS BY APPLYING CLOSING PRESSURE TO CLOSE THE RAMS AND CHECK FOR FLUID LEAKS BY OBSERVING OPENING LINE PORTS. 1500 LBS. OF HYDRAULIC CLOSING PRESSURE SHOULD BE USED. IF GAUGES REFLECT A DROP IN PRESSURE, THERE IS A LEAK. 7. RELEASE THE CLOSING PRESSURE, REMOVE THE CLOSING LINES AND CONNECT OPEN LINES. BE SURE THAT THE PRESSURE IS RELEASED BEFORE REMOVING LINES. 8. ONCE OPEN LINES HAVE BEEN CONNECTED, OPEN RAMS BY APPLYING 1500 LBS OF OPENING HYDRAULIC PRESSURE AND CHECK FOR CHAMBER SEAL LEAKS. RAMS SHOULD BE FULLY OPEN. INSPECT CLOSING LINE PORTS FOR FLUID LEAKS. IF THERE IS A DROP IN THE GAUGE PRESSURE, THERE IS A LEAK.

TO THE FULL OPERATING PRESSURE OF THE BLOWOUT PREVENTER. (DO NOT EXCEED THE WORKING PRESSURE OF THE BLOWOUT PREVENTER OR ASSEMBLY BEING TESTED.) ONCE THE WORKING PRESSURE HAS BEEN REACHED, HOLD PRESSURE FOR A MINIMUM OF (3) THREE MINUTES. CHECK FOR LEAKS AROUND RAM PACKERS OR A DROP ON THE PRESSURE GAUGE ON THE CLOSING UNIT OR TEST UNIT. (THE PRESSURE DROP WILL BE ON THE GAUGE THAT MEASURES ANNULAR PRESSURE UNDER THE RAMS.) IF THE RAMS LEAK, REPLACE THE RAM PACKERS. 16. REPEAT PROCEDURE FOR EACH SET OF RAMS. 17. TEST PROCEDURE IS THE SAME FOR BLIND RAMS WITH THE TEST PLUG OR PIPE REMOVED. NOTE: INSPECT TEST UNIT OR CLOSING UNIT FOR LEAKS PRIOR TO PERFORMING TEST TO PREVENT COMPROMISING TEST WITH A LEAK BEFORE REACHING THE PREVENTER.
