Requirements for a Drilling Blow-out Prevention System
Drilling and Production Regulation Table of Contents
Note:
1. In the diagrams,
"A" means an annular type blow-out preventer;
"R" means a single ram type blow-out preventer with one set of rams, either blank or for pipe;
"S" means a drilling spool with flanged side outlet connections for bleed-off and kill lines.
2. The line sizes indicated in the diagrams are the minimum nominal diameter required.
3. The portion of the bleed-off system from the drilling spool to the choke manifold must be constructed with flanged pipe connections. Threaded fittings may be used for the remainder of the bleed-off system.
4. The manifold system must be constructed to provide flow paths equivalent to those indicated in the diagram.
5. The bleed-off system must contain only the straight pipe, or 90° bends constructed of tees and crosses that are blocked on fluid turns.
