Bop Systems Function / Field Drawdown Test

The document summarizes steps for performing an accumulator drawdown test on a rig. It lists requirements for accumulator pressure, pumps, and relief valves. It then details opening and closing various blowout preventer functions like annulars, rams, and blind rams, recording times and pressures. It checks that functions operate within time limits and that the final pressure remains over 200 psi above the precharge pressure, even with pumps inoperative. Finally, it records the time to recharge the system back to 3000 psi.

BOP SYSTEMS FUNCTION / FIELD DRAWDOWN TEST


Rig :
Name : EDC

Step: 1 To perform accumulator test, ensure following

Accumulator Pressure psi


Annular Regulating Pressure psi
Accumulator Bottles btls.
Manifold pressure psi
Pressure Relief Valve Settings psi

Pump System
Pump Turn On Turn Off
Primary Pump (No.1 Triplex)
Secondary Pump (No.2 Triplex) N/A
Air Pump
Charging Pump-1, 2: (Record the time it takes to pump up system)
API RP53 - 7.3.5.4 The cumulative output capacity of the pump systems shall be sufficient to charge the main
accumulator system from precharge pressure to the system RWP within 15 minutes.
API RP53 - 7.3.5.5 With the loss of one pump system or one power system, the remaining pump systems shall have the
capacity to charge the main accumulator system from precharge pressure to the system RWP within
30 minutes.

Step: 2 Turn off power of electric and air pump

Step: 3 Open and close following function. Record fluid vol., time, accumulator press. and pilot press.
ACCUMULATOR UNIT
CLOSE OPEN CLOSE
Function TIME PRESS PRESS PRESS
TIME TIME
(SEC) (PSI) (PSI) (PSI)
ANNULAR
UPPER RAM
BLIND
MIDDLE RAM
HCR 1
HCR 2

Q: Does the accumulator system function the rams and annulars with the proper time limits?
Each ram BOP in 45 seconds or less YES
Each annular BOP in 60 seconds or less YES
FINAL PRESSURE

Q: Is the final pressure > 200psi above precharge pressure? ( YES/NO)

With pumps inoperative, the main accumulator system shall be capable of performing the
accumulator drawdown test, consisting of closing and opening at zero (0) wellbore pressure the
API RP53 - 7.4.6.4.2 largest operating volume annular BOP and the four smallest operating volume ram-type BOPs,
excluding test rams, with the remaining system pressure at least 200 psi (1.38 MPa) above the
precharge pressure.

Step: 4 Turn on power of electric and air pump. Record re-charging time upto 3000psi system pressure

RECHARGE TIME

NOTE: For simulating the fluid requirements of the blind rams, Opened the 4-way valve for the Upper Pipe Rams.
