I. FEATURES AND BENEFITS
The CAMERON U Blowout Preventer is the most widely used ram-type BOP for land and
platform applications worldwide and offers the widest range of sizes of any CAMERON ram-
type BOP.
Like other CAMERON preventers, the rams in the U BOP are pressure energized; wellbore
pressure acts on the ram to increase the sealing force and to maintain the seal in the event of
hydraulic pressure loss. Seal integrity is actually improved by increased wellbore pressure.
Other features of U BOP:
• Available in a wide variety of sizes, working pressure, body configurations, end connec-
tions and side outlets, and with rams to suit a large amount of requirements.
• Side outlets up to 4-1/16 (for 7-1/16 to 26-3/4 BOPs) can be provided. Side outlets can be
studded, flange or hub.
• Flanges conform to API standard 6A. Hubs conform to API 16A.
• Hydraulic bonnet open/close provides quick ram change-out.
• Metal-reinforced bonnet seal to ensure a tight seal and resist extrusion is standard.
• Bonnet seal carrier is available to eliminate the need for high make-up torque on the
bonnet bolts.
• Manually or hydraulically operated locking system.
• Large bore shear bonnets and tandem boosters are available for applications requiring
increased shear force.
• A wide selection of rams to meet all applications.
• Manufactured to comply with NACE MR-01-75 requirements.
• Can be monogrammed to API 16A.

VII. HYDRAULIC CONTROL SYSTEM (REF. EB 798D)

The U blowout preventer is designed so that hydraulic pressure opens and closes the rams and
provides the means for quick ram change-out.
Ram closing pressure closes the rams. When the bonnet bolts are removed, closing pressure
opens the bonnet. After the bonnet has moved to the fully extended position, the ram is
clear from the body. An eyebolt can be installed in the top of each ram to lift it out of the
preventer.
Ram opening pressure opens the rams. Following ram change-out, this pressure closes the
bonnets. The rams are pulled outward, near the bonnets before the bonnets begin moving
toward the preventer body. This assures that the rams never obstruct the bore or interfere
with the pipe in the hole. Hydraulic pressure draws the bonnets tightly against the preventer
body and the bonnet bolts are reinstalled to hold bonnets closed.
For more information about pressure requirements and operating fluids see EB-196D.
Quantities of hydraulic fluid needed and sequences are given in following table and sketches.
For all sizes/pressures U BOP, the operating ports sizes (Open

and Close) are 1”-11-1/2 NPT.

IX. SEALING TECHNOLOGY
A. Bonnet Seal and Connecting Rod Seal
Standard U BOPs are supplied with bonnet seal - a metal-reinforced elastomeric seal
gasket which seals between the body and intermediate flange and connecting rod seal (a
lip seal made from oil resistant nitrile).
When high temperature and/or high concentrations of H2S are expected, CAMERON
recommends the use of CAMLAST bonnet and connecting rod seals along with CAMRAM
350 packers and top seals.

B. Bonnet Seal Carrier
The bonnet seal carrier is a bore-type sealing assembly which replaces the face seal used
as the previous bonnet seal.
The standard bonnet seal can be replaced by an optional seal carrier; thanks to this
option, sealing capability is not dependent upon bonnet bolt torque. One seal is captured
in a machined bore in the BOP body while the other seal is captured in a machined bore
in intermediate flange.
The seal carrier was designed, developed and performance-verified for use in newly
manufactured BOPs or as a replacement seal assembly for BOPs where either the BOP
body or the intermediate flange requires weld repair on the sealing surfaces.
To set up seal carrier on existing equipment, additional machining is required on body
and intermediate flange.
Seals used on seal carrier are made from CAMLAST material good for high temperature
and/or high concentration of H2S.

D. Sealing Improvements
In order to improve reliability and

durability of our sealing parts, O-ring
items 30 and 33 of piston ram change
have been replaced by four lobes
rings.
O-Rings historically used on ram
change pistons are subjected to high
speed linear motion, and under poor
lubricated conditions may roll.
O-Rings have been replaced by quad
rings giving more stability and less
purposed to twist.
Both seals are using exactly
same groove and are perfectly
interchangeable.

E. Emergency Backup
In case of the primary con-rod seal leaks

(leak detected at the vent port on lower
side of intermediate flange), a secondary
seal can be energized by injection of
plastic packing through the injection port
on upper side of the intermediate flange.
To energize the secondary seal of
connecting rod:
1. Remove with care plug (17)
and plastic packing screw (16).
Be careful as small amount of
fluid under pressure may have
migrated through the seal and the
check valve and may be trapped
underneath the plugs.
2. Check if stick of plastic packing is
already in injection hole. If not,
cut plastic packing to length A Figure 29: Plastic Packing Components Injection

1. Wedgelock Features and Benefits

The U BOP wedgelock is a hydraulically locking mechanism. It locks the ram
hydraulically and holds the ram mechanically closed even when actuating pressure
is released. The operating system can be interlocked using sequence valve to ensure
that the wedgelock is retracted before pressure is applied to open the BOP.
The existing wedgelocks are originally designed for

operations with pipe/blind/shear rams.
Utilization of wedgelock with Variable Bore Ram (VBR)

and flexpacker ram has limitation (see EB-896D).

With unlock sequencing valve:

When an unlock sequencing valve is used, it’s installed instead of lock cap. In this
case, the wedgelock unlock chamber is connected with the bonnet open chamber
through the sequencing valve.
Sequencing valve function is to secure opening operation only when full unlock
position is achieved.
To ensure a correct functionality, a plug must be installed at the end of the open
piston ram change (each bonnet) and also on body open port.
For information about piping with sequencing valve, refer to SK-120115-01.

2. Inserted Packer Rams

The Cameron inserted packer for stripping/snubbing service is designed with a field
replaceable, wear-resistant, non-rotating insert block. The insert block is fabricated
from a specially formulated ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHHMW-
PE) which extends service life. The insert block is designed to be self-locking in the
packer and should not require screws or other fasteners to hold it in place. The
Cameron design eliminates the major causes of failure for inserted packers using
semicircular inserts held in place with screws, including rapid insert wear out and
inserts rotation resulting in permanent packer damage.

B. VBR Rams
1. VBR Ram Details

The Variable Bore Ram (VBR) enables a standard U BOP to seal on several different
pipe diameters. VBR are available on several sizes ranges. All rams listed are
suitable for H2S service per NACE MR-01-75. The VBR seals on a range of drill pipe
sizes as well as hexagonal kellys and provides uniform sealing pressure with virtual
elimination of extrusion paths.
The mechanism of
closure of the VBR
packer is similar to
standard pipe ram
packers. The packers
extend forward of the
ram body faces when
the rams are closed,
the packers contact
each other on the
leading surfaces at the
sides of the pipe bore.
As the ram continues
to close, the rubber in the packers Figure 58: VBR Ram Assembly
is displaced inward to close the
packers around the pipe.
Possible to change item 2 in assembly with flexpacker or

NR flexpacker.

C. Flexpacker Rams
1. Standard Flexpacker Rams

The Flexpacker is a multi-bore sealing device that uses radially moving, stacked anti-
extrusion segments to retain wellbore pressure. Each layer of segment is machined
to fit a specific pipe size within the sealing range, while the packer top plate is
cut to match the diameter of the largest pipe size. As different sizes of pipe are
introduced into the sealing bore, the segments align to fit closely around the pipe
and reduce the extrusion gap to a minimum.
Cameron flex rams included the following features:

• The flexpacker requires little or no break-in and will seal on the first closure
under typical operating conditions.
• The anti-extrusion segments are positively retained in the packer by means of
pins running vertically through the segments.
• Guidance and alignments of pipe into the sealing bore is aided by chamfers on
the leading corners of the anti-extrusion segments.

2. NR (Narrow Range) Flexpacker Rams

The NR Flexpacker is a narrow range VBR packer designed for use with tapered drill
strings. The Flexpacker NR fits standard fixed bore CAMERON rams. The Flexpacker
NR seals around a range of specified pipe sizes to provide economical sealing
capabilities at a fraction of the cost of traditional range packers.
The patent Flexpacker NR design features metal inserts bonded into the elastomer
which move radially as BOP rams close. As the ram energizes, the set of metal
inserts matching the size of pipe in the bore is forced against the pipe. This design
virtually eliminates elastomer extrusion and ensures uniform distribution of
pressure around the pipe. Maximum service life is achieved at the extremes of the
specified size range for this ram packer.
The NR Flexpacker is available to fit standard pipe rams for U BOPs (Ref. EB859D).

2. Shearing Blind Rams (SBR)

Standard SBRs are “single piece” shear rams with the blades integral to the ram
body. The upper SBR features a ‘V’ shaped cutting edge while the lower SBR as a
straight cutting edge. The upper SBR houses a large blade packer which seals on
the front surface of the lower SBR blade.
Under normal operating conditions, SBRs are used as blind rams. The large front
packer in the upper shear ram seals against the front face of the lower shear
ram, resulting in prolonged packer life similar to that of standard blind packers.
Features of SBRs include:
• Large frontal area on the blade face seal that reduces pressure on the rubber
and increases service life;
• CAMRAM™ top seals that are standard for all U SBRs; and
• Cameron SBR’s, both inserted and integral blades, that meet the H2S
requirements of both API 16A and NACE MR-01-75. Sulfide stress cracking
susceptible materials are used for the blades; however, the main bodies of the
SBRs are made of sulfide stress cracking resistant materials.
Shearing action: Upon completion of shearing, the lower fish is folded over and
flattened to allow the front surface of the lower blade to seal against a blade
packer.

3. H2S Shearing Blind Rams (SBR)

H2S SBRs are similar in design to the standard SBRs type I with the exception of
the shear blades. H2S SBRs feature blade inserts of hardened high allow material
suitable for H2S service.
Cameron H2S SBRs are fully compliant with NACE MR-01-75 and API 16A. Therefore,
they are acceptable for use in severe H2S environments. In addition, they have a
long and successfully history of performance in oil well drilling.

4. Double Shear Rams (DS)

DS shear rams were developed to shear multiple tubing strings regardless of their
orientation to the centerline of the ram bore. In addition to this capability, the DS
shear rams can shear larger diameter tubular than the standard SBRs due to the
increased blade width and thickness. Efficient shear blade geometry on both the
upper and lower rams serves to reduce the required shearing force.
The DS shear rams include the same features than shearing blind ram but they
can shear heavier, larger pipe and are better suited for shearing multiple strings
compare to the SBR for three main reasons:
• The blades are wider, covering more of the through bore;
• The fold-over shoulder has been eliminated by placing the blade seal
between the blades; and
• Both blades have an efficient ‘V’ shape.
While these features increase shearing capability, they reduce performance of the
DS as a blind ram. The wider blade dictates narrower side packers, and the seal
between the blades cannot be energized directly by ram closure. This must be
accomplished by feeding rubber from the side packers into the blade seal slot. This
means that the sealing system of the DS is less robust than one SBR and the packer
service life is shorter.
Shearing action: Upon completion of shearing, the lower fish is housed in a vertical
pocket while the blade face seal provides a seal between the horizontal faces of the
upper and lower blades.

5. Double Shear Interlocking Rams (DSI)

DSI Shear Rams are similar in design to the standard DS shear rams except for the
interlocking feature of the rams. Pockets in the lower ram and arms on the upper
are used to prevent any vertical separation between the lower and upper blades.
The interlocking feature provides the capability to shear wireline and braided cable
with zero tension in the line and still maintain a seal. In doing this, some of the
blade width is lost, thus losing the ability to shear larger diameter pipe and casing.
Shearing action: Same as the DS rams except that when the rams first engage, any
separation between the blades is eliminated.

6. Interlocking Shear Rams (ISR)
The interlocking shear ram (ISR) is available for the U BOP. The ISR rams provide
an improved shearing capacity alternative to the standard SBR rams. Since the
geometry of the ISR ram incorporates a “V” shape and is designed as wide as
possible, it can shear multiple strings and drill pipe as large as 6-5/8” OD. Also, ISR
rams do not have to fold over the lower fish. This mean less force is required to
shear and, by leaving the fish open, kill mud can be pumped down the severed drill
strings. The interlocking mechanism incorporated in the ISR means these rams can
be used in an oversized cavity without fear of a leak at low wellbore pressure.

7. Double ‘V’ Shear Rams (DVS)

DVS Rams combine the features of the SBR and DS rams into one shear ram. Both
the upper and lower DVS rams feature are ‘V’ shaped cutting edge to reduce the
required shear force. The blade widths are maximized to increase the shearing
capabilities. The upper DVS houses a large blade packer which seals on the front
edge of the lower DVS blade.
Shearing action: upon completion of shearing, the lower fish is folded over and
flattened to allow the leading edge of the lower blade to seal against a blade
packer.

4. Recommended hydraulic fluid (Ref. EB 196D and EB 928D):

Light hydraulic oil is the recommended operating fluid for U BOPs used in land
drilling operations. Any type is satisfactory except fuel oil, which causes rubber seals
to swell and deteriorate.
In marine operations, a water and lubricant mixture is recommended. Water can
be used in land operations, provided lubricant is added to prevent corrosion and
provide lubrication, and antifreeze is added when necessary.
Should an emergency require the use of corrosive or contaminated fluid to operate
a BOP, the BOP should be torn down, thoroughly cleaned, and all seals should be
carefully checked for excessive wear or corrosion as soon as is practical thereafter.
The control unit pump suction should have a strainer to keep sediment out of the
operating system, and the control unit reservoir should be flushed and cleaned
periodically.

For bonnet installation on body, lift bonnet subassembly levelled using operating
piston (in retracted position) and bonnet cap ram changes (Ref. EB 932D).
Figure 75: Levelled Bonnet for Installation
BOP assembly can be lifted by passing sling under bonnets (slings positioned as
closed as possible from body). As an alternative, threaded holes on top of body
can be used. Before use of these holes, threads should be checked for corrosion or
damages.
Lifting eyes and slings used should be selected to handle the BOP weight given in
section II.

7. External hydraulic ports:

Open and close operating ports for all BOP dimensions are 1’’-11.1/2 NPT.
TC1403 101
DRILLING SYSTEMS
8. Hydraulic operating system requirements:

The rated continuous working pressure for the U BOP operating system is 1500 psi
(100 bars).
Pressures of 300 to 500 psi (20 to 40 bars) normally provide satisfactory operation.
Pressures in excess of 1500 psi may be required in high pressure BOPs to close the
rams against high well pressures or shear heavy pipes.
For optimum seal life, the applied hydraulic pressure should be limited to 1500 psi,
especially when open pressure is required to be held continuously.
Accumulator units should be fitted with a pressure regulator to control the pressure
applied to a BOP.
Refer to section VII for fluid volume requirements.
The maximum hydraulic operating pressure limit is 3000 psi (207 bars) to operate
rams.
B. Disassembly Procedure
The work area should be clean and well-lit.

O-rings (24) in the two grooves on the exterior of the operating
cylinder (6). Insert the operating cylinder (6) small diameter first into the
center bore of the bonnet (3). Gently push until each one is seated. Use a
soft-face hammer, if necessary, to seat the cylinder in the bonnet.
Large bore bonnets do not have separate operating

cylinders. O-ring (item 24) will be installed on
intermediate flange.
3.) Install
O-rings (31 and 32) on the ram change cylinders (11). Insert the ram
change cylinders (11) into the bonnet (3), starting with the end opposite
the O-ring. Gently push until each one is seated. Use a soft-face hammer, if
necessary, to seat the cylinder in the bonnet.
Keep hands away from the ram change cylinders while

they are being inserted into the bonnet. The cylinder
will seat against the shoulder of the counter-bore in the
bonnet.
4.) Install
the four lobes rings (33) and wear band (2R) on the ram change piston
heads (9 and 10). Insert the ram change pistons (9 and 10) head first into
the ram change cylinders (11). Carefully note position (right or left) of the
open ram change piston (9) in the bonnet. The second bonnet assembly for
the same ram bore cavity must have the open ram change piston (9) on the
opposite side.
A bonnet with the open ram change piston (9) on the

right-hand side of the bonnet assembly (when facing the
intermediate flange side) will be considered the right-
hand bonnet and the other will be the left-hand.

F. Ram Assembly
TOP SEAL
All sealing rams for Cameron U BOPs utilize the same

basic design for the ram top seal .The mounting pins
of the top seal pass through slots machined in the
mounting pins of the packer, positively locking the
packer into the ram body, as shown in figure below.
Figure 77: Ram Assembly – Top Seal
TC1403 111
DRILLING SYSTEMS
For All Types of Rams
1.) After packer assembly, clean the top seal groove.

2.) Lubricate
the top seal (including the mounting pins) and the top seal groove,
using a very light coat of grease.
3.) Push
the top seal into the seal groove. When the top seal is seated, the
bottom of the top seal will be in contact with the bottom of the seal groove.
A soft-face hammer may be used, if necessary, when seating the top seal.
Do not pack grease into the seal groove or into the relief
holes on the underside of the ram top seal. The relief
holes must remain empty to accommodate rubber flow.
PIPE, BLIND, VARIABLE BORE OR FLEX RAMS

1.) Clean the top seal groove, packer recess, and the holes in the ram body.
2.) Lubricatethe packer (including the mounting pins), as well as all surfaces and
cavities of the ram using a light coat of grease.
3.) Push
the packer into the packer recess in the face of the ram. Note that the
packer mounting pins are vertically offset from the centerline of the packer.
If a lubricated packer does not slide in easily by hand,

make sure it is not being inserted upside down. Pins
in front packer are not on centerline. Align with holes
in ram before pressing in. Check that top of packer is
toward top of ram.
When the packer is seated, the rear of the packer will be

in contact with the back of the packer recess, the face of
the packer will protrude from the face of the ram, and
the sides of the packer will be flush or slightly above
flush with the sides of the ram body. A soft-face hammer
may be used, if necessary, when seating the packer.

H. Operating and BOP Installation Procedure
PREPARATION
Prior to the installation of the preventer, ensure that the following requirements
are met:
1.) The
capacity and pressure rating of accumulators and pressure pumps must
comply with API STD 53 recommendations or appropriate regulatory agency
requirements.
2.) Ensure
the ring gaskets are correct for the preventer flange, hub size, and
pressure rating.
BOP INSTALLATION
1.) Install
preventer ensuring it is right-side-up (outlets are below the center of
preventer).
2.) Inspect preventer, ram subassemblies and all rubber parts during installation.
TC1403 116
DRILLING SYSTEMS
3.) Remove the external mechanical protectors.

4.) Lift the BOP with appropriate slings.
5.) Install the BOP on a test stump/fixture.
6.) Drain the fluid from the operating system.
7.) Remove the 1“ ball valves or pipe plugs from inlet and outlet connections.
8.) Connect the hydraulic control lines and flush operating system with clean
fluid.
9.) Test for leaks in the operating system (refer to Section XIV-J TESTING).
10.) Install
the rams in accordance with assembly procedure described in Section
XIV-G RAM INSTALLATION.
11.) While installing rams, inspect the ram bore and bonnet.
• Inspect the vertical bore for key seating.
• Inspect intersection between vertical bore and ram bore. Grind out any
raised metal surfaces. Do not remove any metal below original surface.
For acceptance criteria, refer to EB 905D.
I. Maintenance Procedure
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
1.) If
more than 500 psi (35 bars) hydraulic pressure is required to operate the
ram subassemblies when there is no pressure in the well bore, determine the
cause and correct any irregularities.
To avoid damage to the packers, close pipe and VBRS

only when pipe is in preventer.
2.) Pressuretest and operate the preventer once a week per API S53 Periodic
Field Testing, or appropriate regulatory agency requirement.
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE (REF. EB 902D)
1.) At30 months or 800 operating cycles, whichever comes first, completely
disassemble preventer for periodic inspection (refer to EB 902D).
• Clean all parts. Do not use a wire brush on sealing areas.
• Once a year, replace all rubber seals, gaskets and O-rings.
• Replace ram packing according to its physical condition.
• Repair or replace damaged metal parts.
TC1403 117
DRILLING SYSTEMS
Replacement parts should be obtained from Cameron

(or authorized agent) and repairs should be performed
by Cameron or Cameron authorized repair center, or
under Cameron supervision. The annual inspection does
not apply to rams, ram packers, and bonnet seals. These
parts should be inspected more often, for example, at
each ram or packer change, or between wells.
2.) In
some cases, BOPs should be overhauled more often than once a year in
cases when the BOP has been used in a severe operating environment or
has been subject to misuse, or when the operating history of the unit is not
known. Some examples are:
• Prolonged or repeated use at high or low temperatures;
• When operating system pressure is in excess of 3300 psi;
• When used with chemically aggressive well fluids;
• If stored without proper preparation; or
• If exposed to very high flow rates, such as in a blowout.
It is not possible to prepare an exhaustive list of severe conditions. If there
is doubt as to whether a particular condition has been severe enough to
justify an overhaul, then a Cameron representative should be consulted, or
the overhaul should be performed as a precaution.
3.) The BOP should be returned to a Cameron facility for thorough examination
and testing if it has been exposed to any of the following conditions:
• fire
• temperatures above 600° F
• pressure higher than rated working pressure
The recommendation for an annual overhaul does not

apply to BOPs in storage if they have been prepared and
stored properly.
4.) Reassemble the preventer.

5.) Afterreassembling the preventer, test the rams and operating system per
Section XIV-J.
Hydrostatic proof testing, which is only required when

pressure containing components have been welded or
heat treated, should only be performed in a Cameron or
other properly equipped test facility. Failure to heed this
warning may result in death, injury or property damage.
TC1403 118
DRILLING SYSTEMS
J. Testing
A chart recorder or data acquisition system should be used on all pressure tests. The
permanent record generated should identify the recording device and be dated and
signed.
API Std 53 Definition for “Stabilized”:
A state in which the pressure change rate has decreased to within acceptable limits before
beginning the hold period during a pressure test.
Pressure changes can be caused by such things as

variations in temperature, setting of elastomer seals, or
compression of air or fluids, etc.
The following table gives allowable pressure decline rate during the test (0.2% of
pressure or 2 psi/mn for low pressure test ≤ 1000 PSI):
Allowed Pressure Decline

15,000 30
22,500 45
Table 76: Allowed Pressure Decline Rate PSI per Minutes
1. Hydraulic Operating System

a. Flush the hydraulic operating system with clean operating fluid (see EB 928D
and SK-196667).
b. Test for proper stroking of the rams and operating system (Ref. EB 798D).
1.) Apply a maximum of 300 psi (20,7 bars) hydraulic pressure to the Open port.
2.) Ensure that the rams open.
3.) Reduce hydraulic pressure to zero psi.
4.) Apply a maximum of 300 psi (20.7 bars) hydraulic pressure the CLOSE port.
5.) Ensure that the rams close.
6.) Reduce hydraulic pressure to zero psi.
c. Test for leaks in the operating system (Ref. EB 463D).
1.) Remove the hydraulic line from the OPEN port.
TC1403 119
DRILLING SYSTEMS
If testing pipe, casing, flex packers, or VBRs, be sure

that an appropriate size test mandrel is installed into
the preventer. DO NOT close the rams on an open hole
unless closing pressure is less than 300 psi (20.7 bars).
Flex packers and VBRs should be tested with the largest
and smallest pipe size for that packer or use in well
program.
Prior to testing, the secondary rod seal (emergency pack

of assembly) should be checked to ensure the seal has
not been energized. Should the connecting rod seal lead
during the test, the seal should be repaired rather than
energizing the secondary packing.
2.) Apply300 psi (20.7 bars) hydraulic pressure to the CLOSE port, hold pressure
for five minutes, and observe the OPEN port for leaks.
3.) Increase
the pressure to 3000 psi (207 bars), hold pressure for five minutes,
and observe the OPEN port for leaks.
4.) Inspect
for leaks between the intermediate flange, the bonnet, and the BOP
body. No visible leakage is allowed. Bleed all pressure from the BOP closing
line.
5.) Reconnect the hydraulic line to the OPEN port.
6.) Remove the hydraulic line from the CLOSE port.
7.) Apply300 psi (20.7 bars) hydraulic pressure to the OPEN port, hold pressure
for five minutes, and observe the CLOSE port for leaks.
8.) Increase
and observe the CLOSE port for leaks.
9.) Inspectfor leaks between the intermediate flange, body and bonnet. No
visible leakage is allowed.
10.) Reconnect the hydraulic line to the CLOSE port.
11.) Repeat the procedure for each preventer cavity.
Under no circumstances should the operating pressure

exceed the pressure rating specified on the product
nameplate located on each bonnet.
2. Ram Test
Perform after installation and as required by API Std 53 or appropriate regulatory
TC1403 120
DRILLING SYSTEMS
agency.
A break-in test may need to be performed before

sealing test with ram. This test is described in EB-944D.
a. Hydraulically test ram packers with water using the following procedure:
1.) Install
the BOP Stack on a prepared test stump, or install a test plug below
the BOP if on the wellhead.
2.) Inspect for ram packer leaks at low pressure by closing rams on an
appropriate size test mandrel (none if blinds or shears are used) with 1500 psi
(103 bars) operating pressure, and apply 200 psi (13.8 bars) pressure under
the rams. Hold pressure for five minutes. Maximum pressure drop is 10 psi (1
bar) in five minutes.
3.) Increasepressure slowly to the rated working pressure of the preventer. Hold
pressure for five minutes. Maximum pressure drop is 100 psi (7 bars) in five
minutes.
4.) If
rams leak at low or working pressure, inspect for worn ram packers and
replace if necessary.
5.) Repeat the above procedure for each set of casing, pipe and shear rams.
3. Drift Tests
At minimum, the BOP must be drift tested with the appropriate rams installed and
in the open position. It must drift within 30 minutes without being forced.
The drift must conform to drift diameter requirements (per 5.1 Paragraph API 16A
3e Ed.).
Size and Working Pressure API Drift

26-3/4 10,000 psi 26.720” [678.69mm]
Table 77: API Drift

API Std 53:
Drifting the BOP should be performed upon completion of the initial BOP test on
the wellhead assembly. This may be achieved using the test plug, wear bushing
tools, or other large bore tools. Subsequent drifting should be determined by the
equipment owner’s PM program or well specific operations.
The minimum drift size for the BOP system in use should be determined by the
equipment owner and user’s requirement for the well(s) the equipment is installed on.

M. Storage
PREVENTER
• Condition of Storage:
Medium term: BOP is not to be put into service for a period less than three
months.
Long term: BOP is not to be put into service for a period of three months or
longer.
• Periodic Testing of Preservation Fluid (long-term only):

Preservation fluid should be tested at 3- to 6-month intervals. Fluid may be
changed every 12 months if necessary.
• Planned Maintenance:
At 3- to 6-month intervals, the BOP bonnets should be opened and the cavity
visually inspected (in case of long-term storage).
1. Open the bonnets and remove the ram subassemblies.

2. Remove the top seals and packers, then wash the ram subassemblies.
3. Lubricate the ram bodies with heavy grease.
DO NOT lubricate the top seals or packers.
4. Do not store the ram subassemblies inside the preventer.
Rubber products that have been put into service and

are subsequently stored will have an unpredictable
shelf-life. This is attributable to their varied physical
condition when returned to storage, due to the inability
to completely remove elastomeric solvents (hydrocarbon
contaminates, etc.) and storage in a container filled with
air (chemically active gases).
5. Clean the inside and outside machined surfaces of the preventer.

6. Dry with an air blaster until no moisture is left inside or outside the preventer.
7. Inspect the ram bores and the vertical bores for burrs.
8. Remove burrs by touching the surface lightly with a grinder using 36 to 60 grit
papers.
9. Lubricate the ram bore with heavy grease.
10. Lubricate the end and outlet connection faces with heavy grease and cover them
with flange protectors.
11. Flush the operating system using clean operating fluid.
TC1403 129
DRILLING SYSTEMS
For Medium-Term Storage

12. Hydraulic chambers should be partially filled with a corrosion protection fluid
containing a vapor phase inhibitor.
13. The operating piston should be moved in open position.
14. Install the 1” NPT pipe plugs into the OPEN and CLOSE connections. Tag the
assembly with a brass tag and mark date and storage fluid used.
For Long-Term Storage

1. Install 1“ NPT ball valves to the open and close ports.
2. Flush the operating system using clean operating fluid.
3. Fill the operating system with preservation fluid containing a vapor phase inhibitor.
4. The operating piston should be moved in open position.
5. Close the ball valves and disconnect the hydraulic hoses. Tag the assembly with a
brass tag and mark date and storage fluid used.
ELASTOMERS
1. Store rubber products inside a cool, dark, dry storage area.
a. The preferred storage temperature range for rubber goods is from 40° F to 80°F
(4.4° C to 26.7° C).
b. Rubber goods should be wrapped or otherwise protected from direct exposure
to sunlight or artificial light with a high ultraviolet content (such as fluorescent
lighting). Do not store in direct sunlight, even if wrapped, as overheating will
result.
c. Store rubber parts in a relaxed position. Do not stretch or hang O-rings and
seals. Labels should not be attached to seals with string, wire or tape as these
items may deform the sealing surface.
2. Use airtight containers when possible to protect against circulating air.
3. Ozone is extremely harmful to rubber. Ensure that there is no equipment in the
storage area that may generate ozone, such as mercury vapor lamps, high-voltage
electrical equipment, electric motors, or any electrical apparatus that produces
arcing.
4. Keep rubber products clean and free of solvents, oil, greases, or any other semi-
solid or liquid materials during storage. Rubber goods should specifically be
protected against direct contact with:
• manganese
• copper
• copper alloys (including brass)
• polyvinyl chloride (PVC)
• creosote-impregnated timber
• sulphur
• copper napthenate
• other rubber goods of different rubber compounds
TC1403 130
DRILLING SYSTEMS
5. When necessary, rubber goods may be cleaned with soap and water or methyl
alcohol. After cleaning, the rubber goods should be dried at room temperature.
6. Examine the part before installation.
Rubber goods taken from storage must ALWAYS be

inspected before installation. Rubber goods should not
be flexed at temperatures below 40° F (4.4° C). Rubber
goods in storage should be inspected every 12 months to
ensure that they are still serviceable.
a. Ensure that the part does not have a tacky surface or noticeable softening
or hardening of the surface.
b. Flex the part and inspect with a magnifying glass to ensure that there
are no cracks.
c. Replace items that show any aging signs mentioned above.
