    This document is a product advisory from Cameron updating their engineering bulletin on the shearing capabilities of Cameron shear rams. It notes there is significant variance in the shear force required for a given drill pipe specification due to variances in material strength, ductility, and thickness. Testing showed the required shearing pressure for 5" 19.5 grade pipe can range from 2250 PSI to 3540 PSI using the same BOP and operator configuration, a variance of 57%. It is important for BOP equipment users to understand if a predicted shear pressure value is a minimum, average, or maximum. Cameron has updated the engineering bulletin to incorporate a shear pressure predicting formula derived from test data to generate a value. Users are

    Product Advisory:# l2ll4 of Shear Capabilities Cameron Rams EB 702DUpdateRegarding Shearing


    The purpose of this Product Advisory is to notify Cameron equipment users that Engineering Bulletin EB 702 D 'Shoaring Capabilities of Camsron Shcar Rasrs" has bccn updatcd to providc thc most up to dato shcaring ,informationlbsl@i+ ofddlling tubnlEs. Drill pip spcifications allow-forJa4e pocntial varianccsin mechgnicaland dimensional proporties. Conscqucdly, there is a largc variance in thc shear forcc requiromentfor a given drill pipe specificdion. Variancesin thc material streng$" ductility, and thickness have ttis issuea significant irnpacton the rcquired shearforce. This bullctin has becnupdatedto addrss ppf SI35 gade prpe has ben reordd Example; tle reqaired shering pressarefor 5" 19.5 and as high as 35a0 PSI usingthe sane BOP atd opaator corfigration. to be as lan, as 2250 PSI
