1. General Description
3 1/16″-10K BOP is designed for protection against blowouts for coiled tubing
operations, The BOP can rapidly shut off the well during overflow, well kick and
blowout for well killing operation by regaining pressure control.
Hydraulically driven and manual lock capability ensures quick response and safe
operation.
During operation and maintenance, please use safety device and follow safety
instructions.
2. Technical Data
1
3. Certification
Testing– All BOPs are hydrostatic and function tested as per API 16A.
H2S Service – Materials in contact with pressured well fluids conform to NACE
Specification MR-01-75 for H2S Service.
Arctic Service –All essential parts are conducted Charpy impact test at -75℉ as per
API 16A.
4. Operation& Maintenance
4.1 Assembly
Correct assembly is very important for proper operation of equipment. The top and
bottom flange stud must be tightened. Please use studs and nuts of specified grade
for H2S service as per API 6A. Use new washers that meets API 6A and tighten with
proper torque.
4.2 Hydraulic Connection
Connect the hydraulic piping that drives actuators to the hydraulic coupler in the front
of the BOP to make sure the hydraulic piping of each actuator match indicators on the
control panel. Marking each hydraulic piping or using different kinds of couplers is
recommended.
4.3 Essential Parts
Side outlet
Located at one side of BOP, designed for connecting 6BX 2 1/16”-10K BX152 studded
flange, mainly used in well killing service.
Equalizing valve
Each ram is equipped with an equalizing valve to keep the balance above and below
the ram. Generally, there are no equalizing valves in slip ram and shear ram.
During maintenance above the BOP, the pressure relief above the BOP creates
2
pressure difference above and below the ram. To open the ram again, the equalizing
valve must be opened to avoid pressure vibration inside the BOP, which may result in
damage to the ram assembly and hydraulic actuator.
4.4 Operation
Ram open and close
The BOP is actuated by hydraulics. Each actuator has a lock stem to mechanically
lock after the ram closes. Manual lock is also available in case of hydraulic failure, but
not designed for opening the ram. Before opening the ram, make certain that the lock
stem is completely retracted and not interfere with the rod. If the lock stem cannot
rotate smoothly after the pressure test, release the pressure of the lock stem head by
injecting 1,500~3,000psi hydraulic oil at “CLOSE” oil outlet, and then retract the lock
stem completely.
To open the ram, inject 1,500~3,000psi hydraulic oil at “OPEN” oil outlet.
To close the ram, inject 1,500~3,000psi hydraulic oil at “CLOSE” oil outlet.
Note: The lock stem cannot be used to operate the shear actuator.
Ram configuration
3 1/16”-10K BOP consists of four sets of ram (from top to bottom):
1. Blind Ram: Blind Ram is located at the top layer of the ram, used to shut off the
wellbore pressure.
2. Shear Ram: Shear Ram is the second layer ram, used to shear the oil tubing, the
size of which is 1”~2”.
3. Slip Ram: Slip Ram is the third layer ram, used to fix, clamp the oil tubing in
shearing or other conditions where oil tubing fixing is required. Oil tubing of each
size need replacement of slips of comparable size.
4. Pipe Ram: Pipe Ram is the forth layer ram, used to shut off the oil tubing, insulate
the wellbore pressure. Oil tubing of each size need replacement of sealing parts
and rams of comparable size.
Caution: As per NACE MR0175 shear blades are exempt from the hardness
requirements of steel as they need to be harder than the coil in order to cut it. As a
result they are susceptible to Stress Corrosion Cracking (SCC) if exposed to an H2S
environment and should be inspected often to check for cracking.
Ram Replacement
1. Ensure that wellbore or hydro-test pressure has been bled off.
2. Bleed off hydraulic pressure for each actuator set.
3. Remove the hose assemblies.
4. Remove all 1 1/4”-7UNC actuator bolts. 7/8” hexagon spanner is recommended to
use.
5. Remove actuator from BOP.
6. Remove the ram. If the ram is hard to remove, extend the ram following the steps
below:
1) Remove two port plugs.
3
2) Install two 3” or longer pipe with 1/8” NPT connection into the port plug bore.
3) Connect hydraulic coupler to ends of the tubing.
4) Connect the hand pump to the hydraulic coupler.
5) Inject hydraulic oil to the “close” cavity of the actuator assembly, observe the ram
movement and push the assembly out.
7. Service the ram.
8. When ready to retract the ram, ensure the ram assembly is orientated upright and
parallel to the ram bore on the actuator flange. Perform steps 6 in reverse order. It
is recommended that two people perform this step. One operates the hydraulic
system, the other watches the ram retract and ensure the ram does not interfere
with the actuator, causing damage.
9. Before installing the actuator assembly, make sure the surface of the BOP body
and actuator flange are clean and free of debris. Use a thread compound on each
actuator stud and tighten each stud to a minimum of 295 ft-lbs.
10. Repeat these steps for each actuator assembly.
Note: The above procedures can be referred to for ram maintenance or actuator
removal. We recommend to use hand pump or to control the hydraulic pressure within
1,500psi as excessive flow or pressure may cause serious potential injury. When the
ram assembly is pushed forward under hydraulic pressure, operators should stay far
away from the front of the ram to prevent any personal injury from sudden extended
ram.
4.5 Maintenance
The equalizing valve should be closed during BOP storage or operation.
For a better BOP performance, we recommend to open, clean and lubricate all
cylinders after each operation. Replace any damaged seals or parts, especially ram
elastomers. Common wearing conditions indicate that the rubber is squeezed out
along the direction of the pressure. Replacement of the rubber part is required when it
appears obvious wearing.
Check the cutting edge of the shear blade. Replace the blade if cracks on the blade
may affect the shearing performance. Replace the blade after each shear
operation.
After each operation, remove the ram assembly, check all rams and seals, clean the
body, ram and ram cavity. Check the slip thread teeth, if the thread teeth turn blunt, it
may affect the tightening function of the slip, so the slip needs to be replaced.
Every three months, remove all rams, cylinders, equalizing valves and flanges to
clean and lubricate.
Every year, disassemble the equipment, replace all seals.
Every two years, make wet fluorescent magnetic particle inspection on parts
exposed to wellbore fluid and replace damaged parts.
Every four years, make wet fluorescent magnetic particle inspection on all important
parts and replace damaged parts.

4.6 Tests
The following sealing performance tests are required before each operation.
Ram open cavity pressure test: Connect two pipes to the corresponding “OPEN” and
“CLOSE” outlets. Inject hydraulic oil to the “OPEN” outlet until it reaches 3,000psi.
Hold the pressure for 15min. Ensure that the pressure drop is within 150psi and there
is no visible leak.
Ram close cavity pressure test: Connect two pipes to the corresponding “OPEN” and
“CLOSE” outlets. Inject hydraulic oil to the “CLOSE” outlet until it reaches 3,000psi.
Hold the pressure for 15min. Ensure that the pressure drop is within 150psi and there
is no visible leak.
Blind seal test: Connect test flange to the bottom of the assembled BOP. Plug the
side outlet with 2”FIG1502 union plug assembly and side outlet flange. Connect two
pipes to the corresponding “OPEN” and “CLOSE” outlets. Inject hydraulic oil to the
“CLOSE” outlet until it reaches 1,500psi. Then inject water with rust preventative from
the bottom test flange to the internal body to reach 10,000psi pressure. Hold the
pressure for 15min. Ensure that the pressure drop is within 150psi and there is no
visible leak.
Slip ram seal test: Connect test flange to the bottom of the assembled BOP. Put a
testing bar same size of the pipe ram into the rams. Connect two pipes to the
corresponding “OPEN” and “CLOSE” outlets. Inject hydraulic oil to the “CLOSE” outlet
until it reaches 1,500psi. Then inject water with rust preventative from the bottom test
flange to the internal body, wait until the pressure goes up to 10,000psi pressure. Hold
the pressure for 15min. Ensure that the pressure drop is within 150psi and there is no
visible leak.

7. Storage Advice
1. The service and preservation period of seals in the assembly is less than 18
months. Replace if the period is overdue.
3. Store rubber products inside a cool, dark, and dry storage area. The preferred
storage temperature range for rubber goods is from 40°F to 80°F (4.4°C to
26.7°C) .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.
4. 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.
7. Keep the 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, other
rubber goods of different rubber compounds, sulphur, and copper napthenate.
8. When cleaning is necessary, rubber goods may be cleaned with either soap
and water or methyl alcohol. After cleaning, the rubber goods should be dried
at room temperature.
9. 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. Ensure
that the part does not have a tacky surface or noticeable softening or
hardening of the surface. Flex the part and inspect with a magnifying glass to
ensure that there are no cracks. Replace items which show any of the aging
signs mentioned above.
