Code of Federal Regulations Title 30. Mineral Resources § 30.250.731 What information must I submit for BOP systems and system components?

(a) A complete description of the BOP system and system components,

(1) Pressure ratings of BOP equipment;

(2) Proposed BOP test pressures (for subsea BOPs, include both surface and corresponding subsea pressures);

(3) Rated capacities for liquid and gas for the fluid-gas separator system;

(4) Control fluid volumes needed to close, seal, and open each component;

(5) Control system pressure and regulator settings needed to close each ram BOP under MASP as defined for the operation;

(6) Number and volume of accumulator bottles and bottle banks (for subsea BOP, include both surface and subsea bottles);

(7) Accumulator pre-charge calculations (for subsea BOP, include both surface and subsea calculations);

(8) All locking devices; and

(9) Control fluid volume calculations for the accumulator system (for a subsea BOP system, include both the surface and subsea volumes).

(b) Schematic drawings,

(1) The inside diameter of the BOP stack;

(2) Number and type of preventers (including blade type for shear ram(s));

(3) All locking devices;

(4) Size range for variable bore ram(s);

(5) Size of fixed ram(s);

(6) All control systems with all alarms and set points labeled, including pods;

(7) Location and size of choke and kill lines (and gas bleed line(s) for subsea BOP);

(8) Associated valves of the BOP system;

(9) Control station locations; and

(10) A cross-section of the riser for a subsea BOP system showing number, size, and labeling of all control, supply, choke, and kill lines down to the BOP.

(c) Certification by an independent third party,

Verification that:

(1) Test data demonstrate the shear ram(s) will shear the drill pipe at the water depth as required in § 250.732;

(2) The BOP was designed, tested, and maintained to perform under the maximum environmental and operational conditions anticipated to occur at the well;

(3) The accumulator system has sufficient fluid to operate the BOP system without assistance from the charging system; and

(4) If using a subsea BOP, a BOP in an HPHT environment as defined in § 250.804(b), or a surface BOP on a floating facility, the BOP has not been compromised or damaged from previous service.

(d) If you are using a subsea BOP, descriptions of autoshear, deadman, and emergency disconnect sequence (EDS) systems,

A listing of the functions with their sequences and timing.
