RF FLANGED RISER AND RISER CONNECTORS
T-131, 03-02
I. RISER
A. Description
The marine riser forms a continuation of the well bore from the top of the
blowout preventer stack to the drilling vessel. Risers differ in the auxiliary
line size, length and wall thickness of the pipe, and, if used, buoyancy ma-
terial. The RF risers are rated to 2,000,000 pounds (907,185 kg) and have
integral choke and kill lines. See the riser assembly drawing in this section
for detailed specifications.
Note: The seal sub for the RF riser may be run in either flange, but for clarification,
for the remainder of this text, the flange with the seal sub will be referred
to as the PIN and the flange without the seal sub will be called the BOX.
B. Operation
The rig operator must establish the limits for riser operation based on the
characteristics of the drilling vessel, riser system, and expected environ-
mental conditions. This will minimize riser damage from overstress and/or
fatigue. Also, the rig operator must establish the tensioning program for
the riser system. Always maintaining the correct amount of tension at the
top of the riser prevents column buckling and minimizes bending stresses
and flex joint deflection. For additional information on the operation and
maintenance of marine drilling riser, see API bulletin RP16Q.
1. Inspect the riser assembly.
Perform the following procedure while the riser is on the pipe rack or
in the storage area.
a. Inspect the riser pipe, including auxiliary lines and, if used, the
buoyancy equipment for external damage. Repair if necessary.
b. Ensure that the auxiliary lines are securely clamped to the riser
pipe. See the RF Riser Joint Assembly Descriptions and Dimensions
Table (or illustration) for recommended number and location of
clamps for bare joints and joints with buoyancy modules. When in-
stalling urethane clamp assemblies, torque the titanium strap bolts
to 40 foot pounds (54 N!m). The nut should be jammed against
the threaded bar with the same torque.
TC1365 20
c. Inspect the connector for external damage. Repair if necessary. See
Part II, Riser Connectors.
d. Remove the pin protectors from the riser and auxiliary lines.
e. Inspect the bores of the riser and auxiliary lines for obstructions
and wear.
f. Clean the pins of the auxiliary lines and the seal sub with fresh wa-
ter.
Important: DO NOT use salt water.
g. Inspect the sealing area on the pins for excessive wear or damage.
Repair if necessary. See Part II, Riser Connectors.
h. Lightly coat the seal sub and auxiliary line pins with a clean, wa-
ter-resistant mineral grease.
Important: DO NOT use a metallic-compound grease, such as thread dope.
i. Install the pin protectors.
Caution: DO NOT remove the pin protectors until the riser joint is on the rig floor.
j. Clean the riser boxes and auxiliary line boxes with fresh water.
Important: DO NOT use salt water.
k. Inspect the seals for excessive wear or cuts. Replace if necessary.
l. Inspect the bolts and nuts for excessive wear or damage. Replace
or repair if necessary. Clean thoroughly and protect against corro-
sion.
m. Remove twelve socket head set screws, P/N 710265, holding the
nuts in. For riser box connectors using retaining rings to hold nuts
in flange, remove six retaining rings, P/N 2724035 per the Installa-
tion/Removal Procedure (See T-127 immediately following this pro-
cedure). Remove the nuts. Inspect for thread damage or galling to
the top and bottom faces of the nuts. Replace if necessary.
Important: Ensure that the anti-rotation pins (P/N 021812-40 or P/N 021812-97) are
securely in place. Loose pins must be removed and new pins installed.
The pins are knurled on one end and are an interference fit in the
flange hole. Using a hammer, drive the pin into the hole in the flange
until the pin is flush with or below the flange face.
TC1365 21
n. Lightly coat the riser boxes and auxiliary line boxes with a clean,
water-resistant mineral grease.
2. Move the riser joints into position for installation according to rig pro-
cedure using the following guidelines:
a. Always handle the riser joints with the pin protector installed.
b. If automatic handling equipment is not available, use a guideline

and a sling specially designed for picking up and moving riser
joints with a crane.
c. Do not pick up riser joints by the auxiliary lines or brackets. Use the
lifting eyes located on both the pin and box ends of the riser joints
for the sling.
d. Move the riser joints slowly and carefully out of the pipe rack. This
prevents damage to the equipment and/or risk or injury to person-
nel. Foam buoyancy material on risers is easily damaged.
3. Install the riser.
a. Secure the riser spider to the rotary table according to the manu-
facturer’s instructions and rig procedures.
b. Ensure proper spider operation according to rig procedures before

installing the first joint of riser.
c. Use the riser handling tool, and install the first joint of riser pipe.
d. Ensure cleanliness of threads on both the bolts and nuts, then lu-
bricate threads and bolt collars with a molybdenum disulfide lubri-
cant similar to NSW #503 and FEL-PRO #670.
e. Align the riser pin end to correctly fit the riser box end.
Note: If there are more than two lines, ensure proper orientation of the lines as
riser joints are stabbed together.
f. Ensure that the connector bolts are fully retracted into the flange.
g. Lower the riser into position, ensuring that the mating flange faces
are in full contact.
h. Tighten the riser bolts, using one of the three options described
below in steps 4, 5, and 6.
4. Bolt installation using one hydraulic torque wrench.
TC1365 22
a. Ensure that the nut and bolt threads, the bolt collars, and the nut
bearing faces are clean and lubricated with a molybdenum
disulfide lubricant such as NSW #503 or FEL-PRO #670.
b. Hand-tighten all the bolts into the nuts.
c. Apply 7500 ft-lb (10,169 N!m) torque to one of the bolts. Verify
the applied torque using the gauge on the power supply.
Note: Refer to the calibration certificate provided with the Francis Torque Wrench.
d. Move the wrench to the bolt 180o away from the first bolt.
e. Apply 7500 ft-lb (10,169 N!m) torque to the second bolt.
f. Continue to torque the bolts according to the sequence illustrated

in the diagram below.
6 3
4 5
Bolt Torque Sequence (SD016106)
5. Bolt installation using one hydraulic torque wrench and a one inch
square drive impact wrench.
b. Tighten all of the bolts with the impact wrench [approximately

1000 ft-lb (1356 N!m)].
TC1365 23
c. Apply 7500 ft-lb (10,169 N!m) torque to each of the bolts, using
the hydraulic torque wrench, in a clockwise or counterclockwise
pattern. The cross pattern outlined in step 4 need not be used.
6. Bolt installation using two hydraulic torque wrenches.
b. Apply 7500 ft-lb torque (10,169 N!m) simultaneously to two bolts

180o apart, using the two hydraulic torque wrenches.
c. Move the hydraulic torque wrenches to the next two bolts 180o
apart, and apply 7500 ft-lb torque (10,169 N!m).
Important: Either a clockwise or counterclockwise rotation may be used, but the

two hydraulic torque wrenches must always be 180o apart.
d. Move the hydraulic torque wrenches to the final two bolts, and ap-
ply 7500 ft-lb (10,169 N!m) torque.
7. Rotate the riser joints after retrieval.
In water over 400 feet (122 m) deep, change the relative position of
the joints in the riser string by moving the top two riser joints progres-
sively down the riser system each time the riser is retrieved. This rota-
tion sequence provides a different riser joint adjacent to the
telescoping joint with each installation, distributing the stress and
wear over the entire riser.
C. Pressure Tests
1. At the installation of each third riser joint, pressure test each choke,
kill, or other control line with a suitable fluid to the full working pres-
sure of the line.
a. Hold the pressure for at least three minutes, or follow the rig pro-
cedures for pressure testing of the lines.
b. If a pressure loss is evident, inspect the seals. Replace if necessary.
Note: Pressure test all appropriate lines on the riser to working pressure of the line
prior to starting well operation.
D. Field Inspection and Maintenance

1. Visually inspect the riser.
TC1365 24
After use in extreme conditions, or six months of normal drilling con-
ditions, inspect each riser joint for corrosion, cracks, or excess wear.
Repair if necessary.
2. Inspect the painted surface of the riser.
All external parts of a riser joint, except moving parts and mating sur-
faces, are painted.
a. Inspect the painted surfaces for cracked or flaking paint.
b. If cracked or flaking paint is found, thoroughly clean the area of

rust or grease, and repaint.
c. Clean the pins and boxes with fresh water.
d. Replace the seals, if damaged, using choke and kill line seal inser-
tion tool, P/N 698908-01.
e. Lightly grease the pins and boxes with a clean, water-resistant min-
eral grease.
Important: DO NOT use a metallic-compound grease, such as thread dope.
3. Perform a nondestructive inspection.
If the riser is exposed to over-tensioning and/or excessive bending

stresses, make a nondestructive inspection of the suspect riser joints
before putting those riser joints back into service, Use a nondestruc-
tive testing method specified by the rig operator.
4. Contact a Cameron representative if field repairs are required. Do not

weld riser joints in the field.
E. Storage
1. Ensure that proper maintenance is performed before storing riser
joints. See Part I, Paragraph B-1 and Part II, Paragraph A of this proce-
dure.
2. Store riser joints on riser storage racks or cradles designed for support-
ing the weight of the riser.
3. Arrange the racks to facilitate a riser joint rotation system. See Para-
graph B-7 of this procedure.
4. Do not support riser joints by the buoyant sections or auxiliary lines.
5. Always store riser joints with the pin protectors in place.
TC1365 25
6. Do not block access to the pin protectors for periodic inspection and
maintenance while in storage.
7. Place wooden strips and supports, at least 18" (457 mm) from the
ground, under the bottom layer of riser joints and between layers.
Use an adequate number of strips and supports to prevent the riser
joints from bending.
8. Stack the riser joints in a slightly inclined position to ensure proper

drainage of collected water.
9. Do not stack riser joints higher than 10 feet (5.49 m).
F. Transportation
1. When loading riser joints on freight cars, supply boats, or any other
transport vehicle, cover the bottom of the vehicle with wooden
planks.
2. If the bottom of the vehicle is uneven, rigidly shim the planks so that
the tops of the planks are level.
3. Tie down and properly secure the riser joints to keep the load from
shifting.
4. Protect painted or coated surfaces from the tie-down clamps or straps

with heavy duty rubber pads or the equivalent.
5. Do not stack drill pipe, drill collars, casing, or other miscellaneous

cargo on or between the riser joints.
II. RISER CONNECTORS

A. Inspection and Rework
Use the following procedure after one complete drilling operation in ex-
treme conditions, after six months of normal drilling, before storage, or if
a connector has been damaged.
1. Inspect the riser box connector and repair if necessary.
a. Remove RF bolts and inspect for thread damage, galling on the

bottom of the bolt head, or damage to hex flats of bolt head. Re-
place if necessary.
b. Remove twelve socket head set screws, P/N 710265, holding the
nuts in. For riser box connectors using retaining rings to hold nuts
in flange, remove six retaining rings, P/N 2724035 per the Installa-
TC1365 26
tion/Removal Procedure (See T-127 immediately following this pro-
cedure). Remove the nuts. Inspect for thread damage or galling to
the top and bottom faces of the nuts. Replace if necessary.
Important: Ensure that the anti-rotation pins (P/N 021812-40 or P/N 021812-97)
are securely in place. Loose pins must be removed and new pins in-
stalled. The pins are knurled on one end and are an interference fit in
the flange hole. Using a hammer, drive the pin into the hole in the
flange until the pin is flush with or below the flange face.
c. Clean the inside of the box thoroughly with fresh water.
d. Inspect inside the RF riser connector for damage to the sealing area
and the running tool lock-ring groove area. Remove any small
burrs using #150 emery cloth.
e. Use a nondestructive testing method specified by the rig operator,

and inspect for cracks in the area shown.
f. Grind out any suspect cracks to determine the depth of the crack.

B. If the ring is not properly seated in the groove (as in Figure 1), using a tool
such as the flat side of a screwdriver blade, tap the inside diameter of the
ring outward into the groove.
C. If the locking tabs are not in the slots there will be a gap between the wraps,
Figure 3. Using a screwdriver, tap the end of the ring as shown in Figure 4.
To tap the back end of the ring, use a hammer to tap the screwdriver in the
direction of the arrow as shown in Figure 5.
II. INSPECTION
A. When the ring is properly installed:
1. Both locking tabs will be in the slots.
2. The upper and lower wraps will be touching one another all the way
around.
3. The upper and lower wraps will be concentric, with neither wrap
extending from the groove more than the other.
See Figure 2.
III. REMOVAL
A. Put a screwdriver into the slot and give a sharp rap. This will snap the ring
end free of the locking tab.

RF RISER HYDRAULIC RUNNING TOOL
T-139, 11-98
I. DESCRIPTION
The riser running tool is used to lift and handle the marine riser joints and test
the auxiliary lines. The tool has an RF flange on the lower end to stab onto the
riser connector and hydraulically lock into place. The tool is equipped with
position indicators which double as a manual unlock system in the event of
hydraulic failure. The mandrel on the other end has a tool joint box so that
common rig tools can be used for handling. An alignment pin is provided to
allow orientation of the running tool, ensuring proper position for installation
of the test plugs. If pressure testing of the auxiliary lines is necessary, the running
tool is left locked in place and the test plugs are installed.
II. OPERATION
A. Installation
1. Ensure that the tool is in the unlock position. The split lock ring (item 9)
should be retracted, not extending beyond the OD of the load ring
(item 10).
2. Install the running tool in the riser joint. The alignment pin (item 5) stabs
into a bolt hole in the riser joint flange.
3. Ensure that the tool is fully engaged in the riser joint flange. The spacer
blocks (item 6) must be in contact with the raised face of the riser joint
flange.
4. Apply pressure [1500 psi max (103 Bars)] to the lock port of the tool
(item 21).
5. Ensure that the top of the position indicator/manual override rods can be
seen in the space between the protector ring (item 4) and the location ring
(item 3). This provides visual indication that the tool is properly locked into
position.
Note: After lock pressure has been applied, the pressure may be relieved to zero
psi. The tool will stay locked, without maintaining lock pressure, until either
unlock pressure is applied or the tool is manually unlocked.
B. Testing
1. When pressure testing of the auxiliary lines is necessary, install the test
plugs as follows: (Refer to the test plug illustration.)
TC1365 40
Important: Special care should be taken to protect the sealing surface of the test
plug from damage.
a. Guide the end of the test plug into the bore of the test tool flange.
b. Place the notched end of the handle (item 2) over the shaft on top of
the mounting block.
c. Press down on the handle to lever the plug down to bottom out on the
test tool flange.
d. Slide back the handle and rotate the plug 90 degrees until the spring
loaded anti-rotation pin (item 6) falls into place. (Rotation in the
wrong direction is prevented by the fixed pin.)
e. After pressure testing, remove the test plugs:
1) Relieve Test Pressure on all lines being tested.
2) Pull up on the T handle, disengaging the spring loaded anti-rotation

pin.
3) Slowly rotate the plug 90 degrees.
Note: Observe the pressure relief pin (item 13) on the test plugs. This pin
automatically relieves any pressure buildup or vacuum when the plug is
unlocked.
f. Remove the test plugs and set them aside until the next riser joint is
ready for testing.
III. MAINTENANCE
A. Disassembly for Changing Out Lip Seals
1. Remove the eight cap screws (item 14) and the protector ring (item 4) from
the top of the thrust segments (item 2).
2. Remove the pipe nipples (items 21 and 22).
3. Remove the eight cap screws (item 13) and the thrust segments (item 2)

RISER FILL-UP VALVE
T-136-11-98
I. FUNCTION
The riser fill-up valve prevents the riser system from collapsing if the level of the
drilling fluid drops due to intentional drive off, loss of circulation, or accidental
disconnection of the line.
The riser fill-up valve opens automatically when the pressure inside the riser is
225-325 psi (15.5-22.4 Bars) below the ambient ocean pressure. When the valve
opens, seawater rapidly fills the riser to equalize the pressure and prevent riser
collapse. The riser fill-up valve can also be opened when commanded by the open
pilot signal from the surface. The riser fill-up valve closes when commanded by
the disable/reset signal from the surface.

III. OPERATION
Note: Refer to the assembly drawings and hydraulic schematic for item
identification.
A. Automatic opening of the Fill-up Valve.
During normal drilling operation, the mud column applies pressure against
the diaphragm assembly (13) which works with the compression spring in the
pressure pilot valve. This holds the main 4-way hydraulic valve in a position
that feeds the supply and accumulator (39) fluid [3000 psi (207 Bars)] to the
close side of both double-acting hydraulic cylinders (38).
When the combination of mud column pressure and pilot compression spring
drops to 225-325 psi (15.5-22.4 Bars) below the ambient ocean pressure, the
main 4-way hydraulic valve switches, rerouting supply and accumulator fluid
to the open side of the hydraulic cylinders, causing the fill-up valve sleeve (57)
to fully open.
B. Remote opening of the Fill-up Valve.
The fill-up valve will open when an open pilot hydraulic signal is sent from
the surface. An open pilot signal will switch the main 4-way hydraulic valve
switches, rerouting supply and accumulator fluid to the open side of the
hydraulic cylinders, causing the fill-up valve sleeve to fully open.
C. Rapid opening and closing of the Fill-up Valve.
Accumulators are used for rapid opening of the fill-up valve and for emer-
gency opening capability when surface hydraulic supply is lost. During normal
TC1365 52
drilling operations, the fill-up valve accumulators must be continuously
pressurized to 3000 psi (207 Bars) through the surface supply fluid line.
The fill-up valve will open and close at the same speed, approximately 3 to 5
seconds. Three open/close cycles can be operated from a full accumulator
charge without surface supply fluid.
D. Remote closing of the Fill-up Valve.
Once the fill-up valve is open and pressure is equalized, it remains in the open
position until commanded to close by a disable/reset signal from the surface.
The disable/reset signal is a short signal that closes the supply and accumula-
tor fluid pressure port at the spring biased 4-way valve and resets the main
4-way hydraulic valve to its closed position. When the disable/reset signal is
released the spring biased 4-way valve opens the supply and accumulator
fluid port allowing pressure to the close side of the hydraulic cylinders,
causing the fill-up valve sleeve to fully close.
Note: Both the 4-way and the open pilot valve are located on the valve module
assembly. (15).
IV. MAINTENANCE
Note: Refer to the assembly drawings and hydraulic schematic for item
identification.
A. Routine Maintenance.
1. Prior to the installation of the fill-up valve on the riser, complete the
following procedures:
a. Verify correct operation by attaching the hydraulic lines from the

control panel to the valve module on the fill-up valve. While in a safe
upright position (hydraulic cylinders up) cycle the fill-up valve open
then closed from the control panel.
Note: The fill-up valve sleeve is fully closed when the screw heads (35) in the end
of the sleeve contacts the stop shoulder on the body (1).
Caution: Keep away from inlet windows in the side of the body (1) when applying
pressure to and operating the hydraulic system. Once pressure has been
applied to the hydraulic system, the check-valve will hold pressure [3000
psi (207 Bars)] in the accumulators until it is manually relieved from the
bleed valves on the valve module (15).
TC1365 53
b. Pack the O.D. surface of the sleeve with clean, heavy, water resistant
grease to minimize corrosion and help prevent marine growth.
c. Perform routine maintenance on the ‘RF’ connector components per

procedures in the riser section of the rig book.
2. After the removal of the fill-up valve from the riser string, complete the
following procedures:
a. Thoroughly clean the fill-up valve with fresh water, and blow it dry
with compressed air.
b. Inspect the O.D. surfaces of the sleeve and sleeve flange (33). Carefully
remove any marine growth and/or other foreign matter that could
interfere with normal sleeve movement.
Note: Do not scratch or damage the O.D. surface of the sleeve and the sleeve
flange.
c. Thoroughly examine the T-seal (52) as follows:
1) Expose the T-seal for examination by stroking the sleeve to the fully
open position. Block open with a 4 X 4 after confirming the absence
of hydraulic pressure.
2) Visually examine the I.D. sealing surface for cuts and tears.
3) Replace any damaged sleeve seals. Refer to part IV-C.
d. Lightly coat the sleeve, the sleeve flange O.D. and all unpainted surf-
aces with a clean, waterproof grease.
B. Storage
Important: Always install the ‘RF’ pin protector when the fill-up valve is not in use.
Proper routine maintenance must be performed before storing the
fill-up valve.
1. Store the fill-up valve in a covered enclosed area.
Note: If the fill-up valve cannot be stored in a covered enclosed area, cover the
fill-up valve with plastic sheeting to prevent exposure to sand, mud or other
abrasive material.
2. Store the fill-up valve, with the sleeve closed, on its side on wooden
planks.
TC1365 54
C. Sleeve seals replacement.
1. Install the ‘RF’ pin protectors.
2. Remove the choke, kill and auxiliary lines.
3. Set fill-up valve on end with the top down.
4. Remove nuts (29) with an impact wrench.
5. Remove flange weldment (30).
6. Remove sleeve flange retainer bolts (32).
7. Place a ½" O.D. x 28" long (12.7 mm OD x 711 mm long) steel rod through
the two radial holes on the sleeve and carefully remove the sleeve.
Important: Protect the O.D. surface of the sleeve and sleeve flange to prevent
scratching and nicking.
8. Unbolt and remove the mounting plates (54 & 53) along with the T-seal
and the wiper (56).
9. Clean the bore.
10. Carefully inspect the T-seal and the wiper groove in the I.D. of the body.
Remove any sharp burrs and/or scratches.
11. Clean the sleeve and sleeve flange O.D. surfaces.
a. Remove any marine growth, sharp burrs and/or scratches.
b. Lightly coat the sleeve and sleeve flange O.D. surface with a water
resistant grease.
12. Clean the mounting plates. Remove any sharp burrs and/or scratches on
the T-seal and the wiper seal groove.
13. Install the mounting plates with a new wiper and new T-seal. Reinstall
bolts and washers (55 & 59) and torque to 46-50 ft-lb (62-68 N•m).
14. Install the sleeve and sleeve flange so that the hydraulic cylinder rod end
adapters (34) engage the holes in the sleeve flange.
Note: The sleeve is seated when the screws (35) contact the step in the body.
TC1365 55
15. Install sleeve flange retainer bolts in the hydraulic cylinder rod end adapt-
ers and torque to 167-200 ft-lb (226-271 N•m). Clean bolts and lubricate
the threads and bearing faces with a “moly” type lubricant.
16. Install new seal rings (31) on the flange weldment (30) with pressure lips
pointing away from each other.
Important: Do not reuse old seals.
17. Install the flange weldment. Torque uniformly to 1075-1310 ft-lb

(1458-1776 N•m). Clean nuts and studs then lubricate with a “moly” type
lubricant.
18. Install the choke, kill and auxiliary lines.
19. Touch-up paint the fill-up valve as required.
20. Lightly coat all unpainted surfaces with a water resistant grease.
V. DIAPHRAGM VALVE
The diaphragm valve (13) isolates the mud column inside the riser pipe from the
pressure pilot valve while applying the internal riser pressure to the pressure
pilot valve. A light oil fills the diaphragm chamber volume and line between the
diaphragm and the pressure pilot valve. When the pressure in the riser string
goes up, this pressure is transferred directly to the spring side of the piston in
the pressure pilot valve. When the combination of mud column pressure and
pilot compression spring drops to 225-325 psi (15.5-22.4 Bars) below the ambi-
ent ocean pressure, the main 4-way hydraulic valve switches, rerouting supply
and accumulator fluid to the open side of the hydraulic cylinders, causing the
fill-up valve sleeve to open.
Note: Because air compresses and oil does not it is important that the diaphragm
chamber volume and line between the diaphragm and the pressure pilot valve has
no trapped air pockets.
A. List of equipment for bleeding the diaphragm chamber.
1. Hand operated hydraulic pump. P/N 700139 or equivalent like TOTCO

model 212450-101.
TC1365 56
2. Hydraulic pressure gauge that indicates 0-500 psi (0-34.5 Bars).
3. Quick disconnect coupler with dust plug. P/N J093273 & J093276.
4. Miscellaneous fittings and .25 hose to attach gauge to pump and run four
to six feet of hose between pump/gauge and quick disconnect. All with a
minimum of 500 psi WP.
5. Approximately one quart of low viscosity hydraulic oil.
B. Filling
1. Bleed all pressure from the hydraulic system including the accumulators.
2. With the hydraulic power supply, apply 400 to 500 psig. (27.6 to 34.5 Bars)
of pressure to port “PE” on the valve module assembly manifold (15). This is to col-
lapse the pilot port area in the pressure pilot valve [251277-01].
3. Attach quick disconnect from hand pump to disconnect on diaphragm.
4. Loosen the “R” fitting on the valve module assembly.
5. With the hand pump start filling the diaphragm valve with the BOP con-
trol fluid until fluid starts to come out the loose fitting [R]. Tighten fitting and let it
set for five minutes.
6. Bleed system by applying pressure with the hand pump and loosening the
fitting [R]. Allow fluid to flow until pressure starts to fall off then tighten fitting.
By keeping positive pressure in the system while bleeding, air that is forced out can
not return. Repeat until all air has been bled from the system.
7. Remove pressure from port “PE”.
8. Repeat step 6.
9. After bleeding, charge the system with 0 to 10 psi (0 to 0.7 Bars) of oil.
10. Remove the quick disconnect fittings and replace both dust covers.
TC1365 57
VI. PRE-DEPLOYMENT TESTING
A. HYDROSTATIC TESTS
Caution: Keep away from inlet windows in the side of the body (1) when applying
pressure to and operating the hydraulic system.
Once pressure has been applied to the hydraulic system, the check-valve will
hold pressure [3000 psi (207 Bars)] in the accumulators until it is manually
relieved from the bleed valves on the valve module (15).
Acceptance Criteria: All pressurized hydraulic components shall have no

visual evidence of external leakage, except at directional control valve exter-
nal drain ports. Several drops per minute through external drain ports is
normal.
Note: All control system tests must be performed when the riser fill-up valve is in
an up-right position. NEVER PERFORM TESTING WITH THE FILL-UP VALVE
STORED ON ITS SIDE! Attach hydraulic lines per the riser fill control system
flow diagram.
1. CONTROL SYSTEM TESTS:
a. With ports “ME, OP and S” vented on the valve module assy. mani-
fold, pressurize port “RP” to 4500 psig. (310 Bars) and maintain for
15 minutes. Visually examine all pressurized hydraulic components
for external leakage.
b. With ports “ME, OP, RP and PE” vented on the valve module assy.
manifold, pressurize port “S” to 4500 psig. (310 Bars) and maintain
for 15 minutes. Visually examine all pressurized hydraulic compo-
nents for external leakage.
c. With ports “ME, RP and PE” vented on the valve module assy. Mani-
fold, slowly pressurize ports “S and OP” to 4500 psig. (310 Bars) and
maintain for 15 minutes. Visually examine all pressurized hydraulic
components for external leakage.
TC1365 58
d. When executing the above operations, please note that hydraulic
fluid trapped in the hydraulic cylinders will now discharge through
port “ME”. Safely connect a drain hose to port “ME” and secure
hose from whipping under pressure. Use a container to catch the
discharged fluid.
Note: Exhaust fluid discharging from the hole in the bottom of the top bolt-on
module, at the same time as “ME”, is considered normal.
B. OPERATIONAL TEST
ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA: Cracking pressure = 275 +/- 50 psi (19 +/- 3.4 Bars).
1. FUNCTIONAL TEST:
a. Open fill-up valve I.D. to ambient pressure.
b. Confirm all hydraulic hoses are connected per set up instructions.
c. Connect drain hose to port “ME” and secure hose from whipping.
d. Apply control pressure to the control system reset and supply

hoses,“RP & S”.
e. Remove pressure from “RP”. This will close the sleeve if open.
f. Slowly apply pressure to pilot valve exhaust “PE” and record the
cracking pressure.
g. Cracking pressure can be adjusted by changing internal diaphragm

pressure. Example: Cracking pressure can be raised by adding
diaphragm pressure.
2. MANUAL CLOSE:
a. Apply pressure to supply port “S”.
b. Remove pressure from pilot valve exhaust “PE”.
c. Apply pressure to disable/reset valve “RP”.
d. Remove pressure from “RP”.
TC1365 59
VII. ACCUMULATOR
Acceptance Criteria: Accumulators can operate fill-up valve 3 complete cycles.
1. ACCUMULATOR OPERATION:
a. Charge accumulators with 3000 psig (207 Bars) of hydraulic fluid

through the supply valve port “S”.
b. Verify that the fill-up valve is in the closed position.
c. If fill-up valve is open, apply pressure to “RP” [3000 psig.(207 Bars)] with
no pressure on “PE”. Remove pressure from “RP”.
d. Remove pressure from “S”.
e. Add cracking pressure to “PE” [275 +/-50 psig (19 +/- 3.4 Bars)]to open
fill-up valve.
f. When open, remove pressure from “PE” then apply pressure to “RP”
to close.
g. Repeat the last two steps to operate fill-up valve three complete cycles.

RF Telescoping Joint with Barrel Locking
Mechanism (T-269, 04-02)
I. Description
The telescoping joint compensates for changes in the distance between the
drill ship and the stack. The changes in distance are caused by waves, tides, or
ship movement. To compensate for changes in the ship-to-stack distance, the
telescoping joint is extended. Then the loops in the connecting fluid lines are
extended to meet the changing ship-to-stack distance. The lower ends of the
fluid lines attach to external goosenecks on the outer barrel of the telescop-
ing joint.
The telescoping joint consists of two pipes which are referred to as barrels.
The construction of the telescoping joint allows one barrel to slide up and
down the inside of the other barrel without leaking. The larger, outer barrel,
located at the bottom of the telescoping joint, is attached to the top of the
last riser pipe. The smaller, inner barrel, located at the upper end of the tele-
scoping joint, is usually attached to a riser connector which contains an
adapter that is connected to a diverter.
A rubber sealing element and up to 500 psi (34.5 Bars) energizing air or hy-
draulic pressure seal the space between the inner barrel and the outer barrel
of the telescoping joint. The seals and the wear bushings keep the inner bar-
rel aligned inside the outer barrel. A lubrication reservoir wets the dry space
above the upper split seal.
II. Installation
Note: Refer to the Upper Housing/Double Seal Subassembly illustration and parts
list for item identification.
A. Install the telescoping joint on the riser pipe as follows:

1. Suspend the last section of the riser pipe in the spider.
2. Inspect the telescoping joint.
a. Ensure that the locking segments are in locked position. (Inward)
b. Ensure that the tensioning line clevis pins are operational.
3. Pick up the telescoping joint, and install it on the riser pipe.
TC1365 88
B. Lower the telescoping joint and the BOP stack as follows:
1. Support the telescoping joint with the drawworks.
2. Retract the spider dogs.
3. Lower the telescoping joint.
4. Extend the spider dogs, suspending the telescoping joint in the spider.
5. Install the fluid lines.
6. Pressure test the double seal subassembly for leaks as follows:
Energizing Pressure Test

a. Connect the air or hydraulic line in place of either pipe plug (item 4)
in both seal housings.
b. Apply up to 500 psi (1 to 1.7 Bars) pressure (normal operating pres-

sure).
c. Check for leaks, and watch for pressure drop.
d. If the pressure does not hold, remove the pressure, and repair the
leak. The likely cause of energizing pressure leak is pipe plug (item 4)
or O-rings (item 17).
Bore Pressure Test

To test the packers, bore pressure may be applied between the upper
and lower seal housings. Depending on the condition of the packers
and inner barrel, the required energizing pressure is approximately
10% higher than bore pressure.
Remove the pipe plug from the double flange (item 6) and connect a
test line.
With seal energizing pressure applied, apply bore pressure to test port
in the double flange (item 6).
7. Disengage the locking segments (item 11) by rotating the locking seg-
ment actuators (item 6) 90°.
8. Raise the inner barrel with the drawworks.
TC1365 89
9. When the upper flange (item 23) has cleared the locking mechanism
actuator controls and the lubrication reservoir (item 21), inspect the
lubrication reservoir for mud, grease, and other foreign matter.
10. Remove any mud, grease, or other foreign matter from the lubrication
reservoir (item 21).
11. Ensure that the port which supplies lubricant to the inner barrel is
open.
12. Attach the tensioner line shackles to the tension ring on the telescop-
ing joint.
(Reference: P/N 2163647-02-01)
13. Pressure test the riser system. Refer to the rig procedures.
14. Lower the BOP stack until the tensioner takes the weight of the BOP
stack and riser. Land the BOP on the wellhead according to rig proce-
dures, using the tensioner and draw works.
III. Emergency Split Seal Maintenance

Reference: P/N 2163647-02-01, P/N 2163648-02-01
list for item identification.
Note: The upper split seal and the lower split seal are split into two segments, al-
lowing quick in-line replacement without disassembling the telescoping joint
or riser.
A. Upper Split Seal Replacement

b. Support the telescoping joint on the spider dogs just below the
lower seal subassembly.
c. Relieve the air pressure on the upper split seal (item 13) as follows:
1) Open the pressure relief valve.
TC1365 90
2) If the air supply line does not have a pressure relief valve, back
out the pipe plug (item 4), located below the pressure inlet port.
d. Remove the nuts (item 2) from the studs (item 1), located in the
top of the upper seal subassembly.
e. Using the locking mechanism actuator controls, lock the upper end
connection weldment (item 1, Reference to P/N 2163647-02-01) to
the upper flange (item 23, Reference P/N 2163647-02-01 ), located
in the upper seal subassembly.
f. Raise the inner barrel weldment and the upper end connection
weldment (item 1, Reference P/N 2163647-02-01) just enough to
expose the upper split seal (item 13).

TC1365 100
b. Inspect each part for damage or wear.
c. Inspect the inside of the outer barrel for straightness, out-of

roundness, and any other surface imperfection that could impair
the operation of the telescoping joint.
d. Ensure that the upper flange face (item 23, Reference P/N
2163647-02-01), the riser pin protector, and the male and female
stab unions on the kill, choke, and circulation lines are not dam-
aged.
e. Replace any damaged or worn parts.
f. Use a nondestructive testing method specified by the rig operator,

and inspect for cracks in the weld area at the ends of each attach-
ment weld to the outer barrel (gussets, mounting block support
plates, centralizer and guide plates).
g. Grind out any suspect cracks to determine the depth of the crack.
1) If a crack greater than .030” (0.76 mm) in depth is found, the

crack must be repaired using Cameron welding specifications.
Do not weld repair in the field. Contact your Cameron represen-
tative.
2) If a crack less than .030” (0.76 mm) in depth is found, the crack
does not need to be weld repaired. Blend the ground-out area
into the original surface.
h. The ends of the gussets, mounting block support plates, centralizer

and guide plates are to be sealed with Silicon to prevent corrosion
under the plates. Ensure that these areas are properly sealed to
prevent corrosion. Follow manufacturer’s instructions for applica-
tion of Silicon sealer, Typically:
1) Clean and dry the surface.
2) Remove nozzle from the cartridge body. Cut the tip of the car-
tridge. Insert the cartridge in the caulking gun.
3) Apply by pushing sealant ahead of nozzle.
4) Normally sealant “skins” in 5 minutes, dries to the touch in 1

hour, fully cures and bonds in 24 hours. Optimum strength is
achieved in seven days.
Note: Lightly coat all internal surface and components with water-resistant mineral
grease.
