3. WORKING PRINCIPLE

3.1 WORKING PRINCIPLE OF OPENING AND CLOSING OPERATION

When the high-pressure oil of hydraulic control system enters the ram closing
cavities of left and right oil cylinders, it drives the pistons to push the left and right
ram assemblies to respectively move towards the center of wellhead along ram
cavities of casing to realize the well sealing. When the high-pressure oil enters the
ram opening cavities of left and right oil cylinders, it drives the pistons to push the
left and right ram assemblies to respectively move in the direction of departure
from the center of wellhead to realize the opening of well. The opening and closing
of ram is controlled by the change-over valve. In general, the opening or closing
operation can be fulfilled within 3～15sec.

Figure 3 Diagram of Hydraulic Circuit of Assembly of Opening Ram and Closing

Bonnet

3.2 WELL PRESSURE PRINCIPLE OF SEALING

Ram BOP has four sealing parts in order to shut off the wellhead effectively.
The ram top seal and body seal; the ram front seal and pipe column, body and
sealing between the pipe and the ram front seal; sealing between the body and the
side door; sealing between the ram shaft and the side door.
Procedure of the ram sealing divided into two steps: First the ram shaft
affected by hydraulic oil pushes the ram front seal rubber to press the front part of
sealing distorted. Over compression between the top seal rubber and the body
seals the top part and accomplishes primary sealing. Second when there is
pressure in the well, the well pressure pushes the ram front seal front back part of
the ram to extrude distoration more deeply, at the same time, well pressure pushes
the ram up against the body seal face, thus making reliable sealing. This is called
"well pressure assisting sealing".

4. STRUCTURE AND FEATURES OF MAIN PARTS

4.1 STRUCTURE FEATURES

1）Main pressure-bearing assemblies such as the body and the side door are cast

8
13 5/8”-5000psi Ram BOP Rong Sheng Machinery Manufacture LTD. OF Huabei Oilfield, Hebei

with alloy steel of high strength and high toughness. The harmful chemical
components and nonmetal impurity in material are controlled strictly. The blank is
made by forging, and its structure is compact and non-defective with excellent
general mechanical performance and low temperature impact toughness after
appropriate heat treatment. Adopting oblong structure in ram chamber, body stress
is greatly reduced, and its pressure-bearing performance increased.
2）Ram Assembly: The ram is integrated in style and long and round in shape. For
the sealing the combination of the front sealing element and the top sealing
element is adopted. The front sealing element and the top sealing element can be
changed individually according to their specific conditions with simple and easy
assembling and disassembling operations.
3) The float type well pressure assisted sealing is adopted for the sealing between
the bonnet and the housing. The required pre-tightening force from the bolt of the
bonnet is rather small and the sealing is very reliable.
5) The hydraulic connector on body adopts NPT 1 nut. And install oil pipe seat on it
with NPT 1” nut for protecting nut on the body. If nut on the oil pipe seat is
damaged, nut on the body can be used.
6) The size of external connection complies with API 6A.

4.3.3 Caution when using shear ram

▲ ！The shear ram cannot resist H2S. If work in H2S environment, must be
careful.
▲ ！After shearing the drilling pipe, inspect the shear ram assembly in time:
inspect the seal of ram; penetrate inspect the shear blade; inspect the ram block if
it is damaged to effecting the open-and-close or seal. After inspection, do seal test
again. It is can be used after it gets through the inspection.
▲！When shear drilling pipe, forbid shearing drill joints.

4.5 SECONDARY SEAL STRUCTURE

The seal system between ram shaft and middle flange is divided to two parts.
One part is used to seal off well pressure, and another seal off control pressure.
The secondary seal system is between the two parts. But they occasionally would
be damaged for some reason. In this case, when shut well, there will be leaking.

14
13 5/8”-5000psi Ram BOP Rong Sheng Machinery Manufacture LTD. OF Huabei Oilfield, Hebei

So we need the secondary seal system to treat it emergently. See figure 8.

During a well is shut off, if there is liquid flowing out from the seeing hole (at the
bottom part of the middle flange), indicating that the seal rings has been damaged
and we can know that the seal on well side or the seal on control side is damaged
from the liquid. At this time, immediately remove the plug of the grease injection
pore, install club-shaped in the pore, and then turn the screw clock wisely with an
inner hex wrench to inject the tightened plug, and inject the secondary seal grease
across the radial hole of the check valve and supporting seal sleeve into the
circular seam so as to achieve the seal remedy.
Caution to use secondary seal system:
1) To prevent the grease from being solidified after long time, we do not put grease
in BOP in factory. And while the BOP is not used, it is also without this grease.
Only before the BOP is used in site, put in the grease. And after a well is
completed and the BOP is inspected and repaired, take out and clean the grease.
2) Get special tool ready.
3) During working should often notice the following notice hole plug (on it there is a
little hole) if there is liquid flowing out.
4) Don’t inject too much grease when seal ring is damaged. Proper inject quantity
is that there is no liquid flowing out. Because the secondary seal grease is more
frictional and with granule substance, it impairs the ram shaft when it returns.

Please see the structural drawing of the product.

The ram manual locking device is composed of the locking screw, the ram

16
13 5/8”-5000psi Ram BOP Rong Sheng Machinery Manufacture LTD. OF Huabei Oilfield, Hebei

shaft and the manual control assembly and it is a kind of rising stem manual
locking device. For the manual locking device the hand wheel needs to be rotated
manually to enable the rotation of the locking screw and thus lock the ram. It is
used when the well needs to be sealed for a long time. It can lock the ram at the
closure position after the ram has been closed hydraulically. And at this time the
hydraulic pressure can be released. When performing the locking operation
manually after the ram has been closed hydraulically, rotate the hand wheel to the
right to enable the rotation of the locking screw through the control lever, allowing
the end of the locking screw to lie against the tail of the ram shaft, and thus
pushing the ram shaft toward the center of the wellhead and locking the ram. The
manual locking device can only be used to close the ram. It cannot be used to
open it. If you want to open a manually locked ram, you must reset and unlock it
first with the manual locking device and then open the ram hydraulically. This is the
only possible method. The specific operations include, first rotate the hand wheel
to the left to the end, then rotate it to the right for 1/8 to 1/4 circles to prevent the
clamp shaft from being locked at the unlocking position because of the variations in
temperature, and then open the ram hydraulically.

4.8 Oil Valve Switch

The oil valve is installed inside the cylinder cap. Its major use is to control the
ram closure chamber where the hydraulic oil is injected into the major hydraulic
cylinder to prevent the protrusion of the ram. When the bonnet is opened
hydraulically, the ram would protrude forward under the action of the hydraulic oil
and thus close the ram. In order to prevent the ram from protruding forward the oil
valve is closed (rotate it downward into the oil valve) and then open the bonnet. By

17
13 5/8”-5000psi Ram BOP Rong Sheng Machinery Manufacture LTD. OF Huabei Oilfield, Hebei

this way we can open the bonnet with the ram staying at the open position and
then the ram can be taken out. Please see the Ram Changing Procedures for the
specific operations. When opening the oil valve, rotating the top of the oil valve to
the same level of the cylinder cap is enough. When dismounting the oil valve, just
keep rotating it outward.

▲！Attention: The oil valve shall be in its open position during the normal
operation of the blowout preventer.

4.9 SEAL RING, BONNET

A kind of floating pressure self-sealing device is adopted for the sealing of the
bonnetr of 13 5/8”-5000psi ram blowout preventer. Please see the following
drawing.

Side Door BODY

Figure 11 Bonnet Seal Ring and its Installation

The sealing is formed between the O ring 3 and the body to seal the gap
between the bonnet and the body. The lip seal 4 is used to seal the framework of
the bonnet seal ring and the outer side of the seal slot of the bonnet. The rubber
spring is used to make the seal ring of the bonnet and the body contact with each
other under a certain pressure, which is helpful to form the primary sealing. Thus
the complete sealing area is formed. When the bonnet is under pressure, a gap
would be resulted at the interface between the bonnet and the body. Under the
differential pressure the seal ring of the bonnet would be always pressed on the
surface of the body to fill in this gap. Thus a kind of reliable sealing is formed. So,

19
13 5/8”-5000psi Ram BOP Rong Sheng Machinery Manufacture LTD. OF Huabei Oilfield, Hebei

this kind of bonnet sealing structure does not require a very high pre-tightening
force from the bolts of the bonnet.

▲！Attention: The seal ring of the bonnet must be mounted in the correct
direction. It shall be mounted according to the specifications on the drawing.
That is, the rubber spring shall be mounted on the end side where there is a
horizontal slot, this side shall be at the bottom of the slot of the seal ring on
the bonnet, and the lip side of the lip seal shall be on the same side of the
bottom of the slot for the seal ring of the bonnet.

6 INSTALLATION ,OPERATION AND CAUTIONS

Read this section first before BOP installation. Structure, function and caution
have been introduced in above-mentioned chapters and this section for installation and
operation.

6.1 Installation on the wellhead

6.1.1 Preparing works before installation
(1) Check weather gaskets of wellhead flange and BOP flange is well or not and
surface of wellhead flange. Protruding is not allowed to exist.
(2) Check installed ram rubber sizes to see if it is compliance with drilling tool sizes.
(3) Check weather pressure tests are qualified or not.

6.1.2 Installation of ram BOP

（1）After tests, every connection bolt is fixed once again avoiding unbalanced
distribution. See the tightening torque of flange bolt from appendix table 2 or 3.

（2）Connect hydraulic hose and pay attention to “ open &close” mark on BOP
body.

6.1.3 After Ram BOP installed on wellhead, inspect the following before operation,

to ensure its proper operation.

1) Check BOP is installed rightly or not: lifting ring of body should be installed on the
upside; everywhere the connecting bolt diagonal should be in turn tightened
equably.
2) Inspect oil pipes to see if they are in compliance with BOP switch direction, provide
286~429psi control pressure to test each ram twice (open and close), draining air
from the pipes. If ram switch movement is not the same direction as the mark on
the hand rod of control platform, reverse the connection pipes.

25
13 5/8”-5000psi Ram BOP Rong Sheng Machinery Manufacture LTD. OF Huabei Oilfield, Hebei

3) Inspect manual-lock system to see if it is well connected, and if closing and opening
with the hand rod is fixable or not record hand wheel circle number when closing
well and mark it on hand-wheel. After finishing the tests, rotate hand wheel left and
make it unlocked, open ram with hydraulic pressure.
4) Inspect if each blowout pipe, choke and kill manifold connect right.
5) Wellhead equipments shall be pressure tested fully. Standards of test shall be
according to related well control specifications. After tests, every connection bolt is
fixed once again avoiding unbalanced distribution. See the tightening torque of
flange bolt from appendix table 2 or 3.

6.2 USAGE AND CAUTIONS

1) BOP operation must be charged by specialist and professional person.

Operators shall be familiar with BOP working principle, specifications and
process, and can also operate, repair, maintain and clear troubles.
2) When testing without string in hole, the max close pressure does not exceed
3MPa to prevent rubber from damage. When there is string in the well
pressure prohibit closing the blind ram.
3) In case of need to seal the well for a long time, it should use the manual lock
device to lock the ram, and hang the label statement on the control console to
avoid the mis-operation.
4) After reaching objective interval, the rams should be opened and closed one
time every day to see if they are flexible lock in normal condition. After the drill
string is pulled out of the well, blind ram open and close test is needed. When
there is string in hole, do not close blind ram.

6.2.1 Ram Seal Tests

Test media is plain water or drilling fluid. After pressure keeping steadily, begin to
account time.

（1）Tests for CSO & pipe ram

Test procedure：

Install BOP on the test platform and connect open & closed hydraulic hoses with

26
13 5/8”-5000psi Ram BOP Rong Sheng Machinery Manufacture LTD. OF Huabei Oilfield, Hebei

BOP. Connect lines from high-pressure tester to test platform or BOP outlets.

B. Put drill pipe inside BOP and make sure it connected with test platform reliable
during testing pipe ram to avoid being squeezed out from BOP. There is no drill pipe
inside BOP during CSO & shear rams.

C. Close ram with hydraulic operation pressure 1,200psi ～ 1,500psi and put
hydraulic operation handle on “close ram” opposition.

D. Raise well pressure to 200psi to 300ps and keep pressure for 10min，check
weather there is leak or not in seal parts.

F. Raise well pressure to 5,000psi and keep pressure for 10min，check weather
there is leak or not in seal parts.

G. Reduce well pressure to zero and open ram，check ram wearing and seal parts
weather there is no leak or not, record results.

Test variable ram with Max. size & Min. size drill pipe and test procedure same
as above. Close well by Variable ram through hydraulic operation not manual
operation.

（2）Locking structure tests

A. Close ram with hydrauic1 operation pressure 1200psi～1,500psi.

B. Turn locking shaft clock –wise by manual and lock it.

C. Reduce well pressure to zero and put hydraulic operation handle on “close
ram” opposition.

D. Raise well pressure to 200psi to 300ps and keep pressure for 10min，check
weather there is leak or not in seal parts.

E. Raise well pressure to Max. rated working pressure 10,000psi and keep
pressure for 10min，check weather there is leak or not in seal parts.

F. Reduce well pressure to zero and turn locking shaft anti clock-wise to unlock

6.2.2 Operation, inspection and test procedure of shear ram

1) Preparation
A. The hydraulic oil pressure of the accumulator of the hydraulic control system
should maintain at 19~21MPa (2714~3000psi).
B. After be sure that the tool joint and the drill collar are not at the shear position of
shear ram BOP, lock the brake system of hoist engine of drill rig.
C. Close the annular BOP and half seal ram BOP that are on the shear ram BOP.
D. Drain pressure by open the main blowout pipe.
E. Install the corresponding drill pipe bull clip at the suitable position (above the
rotary table surface) of the drill pipe. Fix it with the drill rig by the wire rope.
2) Operation steps:
A. Push the handle of the side valve of the hydraulic system to the “open” position.
And let the high oil of the accumulator directly into the manifold.
B. Push the handle of the spool controlling the shear ram to the “close” position
and do shear drill pipe operation.
C. Observe the pressure change of hydraulic manifold pressure gauge. When the
ram begins to close, pressure is dropping. When begin to shear, the pressure is
rising and maintains. At the moment of snip, the pressure suddenly drops and then
rises and maintains. Hereby, we can judge if the shear is successful.
D. Manual lock the shear ram BOP.
E. Close the side valve of the hydraulic system. Adjust the pressure of remote
control panel to the regulated value.
3) Inspection and maintenance
After each shear operation, the shear ram assembly should be put out and do total
inspection. The inspection items are including:
A. Appearance inspection:
☆ There should be no cracks on every part of the blade. The edge of the blade
should not have jag and fold.
☆ There is no obvious damage on the rubber.
☆ There should no any defection on the joint surface of the top and bottom blade
and seal installation groove of the blade.
B. Do NDT on appearance
After shear, all machined surface of the shear ram should be done surface

28
13 5/8”-5000psi Ram BOP Rong Sheng Machinery Manufacture LTD. OF Huabei Oilfield, Hebei

penetrating inspection and all inspection should be recorded. The detection parts
are as following and the requirement of inspection is as following:
☆ There should be no any display on the edge of the blade & the joint surface
between top and bottom.
☆ There should be no any display on the installing groove of rubber sealing.

Figure 13 Inspection for shear ram

C. Maintenance
☆ The blade part of the shear ram is forbidden welding.
☆ Carefully polish the fold and deformation part of the edge of the blade by the
abrasive stick or abrader. Try to keep the original type of the edge of the blade
when it was delivered. (The type of the edge of the blade directly affects shear
capability.)
☆ Change damaged rubber sealing. If there is light damage on the rubber, it must
be changed.
D. Management
☆ Set product using files on every set of shear ram & record the usage condition
and inspection condition in detail.
☆ According to regulation of API Spec 16A, the effective usage life of the shear
ram normally is three times shear operation. Before the production leaves the
factory, the shear ram should be test once. Then, the shear ram can be used twice
in practical use. (It is forbidden that do shear test in well site rehearse and daily
BOP operation.) After the shear ram has been used on the well site, it should be
wasted and no longer to use and be changed with new one. The shear ram
appearance inspection can satisfy the requirement of NDT after three times shear
operation, it can continually be used. But the usage time should not be more twice.
4) Floor test steps for shear ram:
A. Install the BOP on the test seat. Connect the open and close hydraulic control
pipes with BOP. Connect the high pressure test pump to the test seat or the outlets
of BOP.

29
13 5/8”-5000psi Ram BOP Rong Sheng Machinery Manufacture LTD. OF Huabei Oilfield, Hebei

B. The open, close and well pressure pipes should be least equipped with a
pressure sensor respectively. Connect all pressure sensors with data acquisition
system for permanent recorders.
C. Vertically lift a 4ft long testing drill pipe above the BOP and then put it into the
well hole. When shear the drill pipe, pay attention not to shear the joint.
D. Set the pressure of the hydraulic control system to 3000psi. In one operation,
close ram and shear the drill pipe. The pressure of shear can be got by rapidly
pressure change of the moment of shear.
E. Rise the well pressure to 200~300psi and maintain 10 minutes and check the
leaking condition. It is qualified if there is no leakage.
F. Rise the well pressure to the Max. working pressure of BOP - 5000psi and
maintain for 10 minutes. Check the leaking condition. It is qualified if there is no
leakage.
G. Drop the well pressure to 0 and open the ram. Inspect the corrosion condition of
the shear ram and rubber condition & make the record.

8.1 REPLACEMENT OF RAM AND RAM RUBBER

Ram rubber is the key part in a BOP. If damaged, BOP is useless in sealing well.
So it is very important to keep it well, and replace it in time if there is damage in sealing
surface.

▲! Caution: Be sure that manual lock device is in the unlocking position.

Procedures of ram rubber replacement:
1) Open the ram completely with hydraulic oil.
2) Loose bonnet bolts (Attention: If BOP is installed on the well with pressure,
forbid disassembling bonnet bolts.)
3) Take out of the end plug for assembling the oil valve hole. Close the oil valve.
Namely, tighten the oil valve to the end.
4) Open the bonnet assembly with hydraulic oil less than 10.5MPa. At the same
time, close the ram. Open the bonnet assembly to the limited position and now
the ram is at closed position.
5) If the ram is at the open position, open the ram to total-open position preventing
the bonnet from closing. If necessary, put two wood squares (same size)
between the body and the bonnet.
6) Bring out the ram assembly from the end of the piston. When bring out the ram
assembly, pay attention to protect the piston for opening and closing the bonnet,
sealing surface of the bonnet preventing from knocking and scratch.
7) When change the ram rubber, pry the top seal, disassemble the face seal and
change the new rubber. Assembling order is contrary to disassembling.

▲!Attention: Open the oil valve after assembly. And then operate the on-off of the
ram.

8.2 REPLACEMENT AND CHANGE OF CYLINDER

1) In case of damage and oil leakage of seal of ram shaft, seal of piston or seal of
clamp axes, it should be dismantled for repair, and the specific steps are as follow
(The description in the bracket is for manual lock device):
a) Close ram and open bonnet assembly by hydraulic control system with
pressure less than 10.5MPa. Take off ram assembly.
b) Release the pressure of cylinder. Put a clean oil basin under the bonnet

33
13 5/8”-5000psi Ram BOP Rong Sheng Machinery Manufacture LTD. OF Huabei Oilfield, Hebei

assembly prevent from oil flowing to the floor during disassembling.

c) Dismantle the studs and nuts for securing the cylinder cover, and take off the
locking shaft from the cylinder cover;
d) Take off the cylinder/cylinder sleeve.
e) Take off the ram shaft.
f) Lift the bonnet and screw down the open and close bonnet piston rod.
g) Loose the retainer ring and take off the ram shaft seal ring in the bonnet. Take
off the ram shaft seal ring in the cylinder cover by the same method.

2) Inspection position after disassembly is as following:

When there is deep longitudingal pull scar on the inner surface of the cylinder
sleeve and cylinder barrel, change new cylinder sleeve and cylinder barrel cause it can
not prevent oil leakage when change new seal ring. At the same time, inspect relative
parts as piston and find pull cause to settle it. If the pull scar is shallow linear scratch or
dotted scar, repair it by superfine sand paper and abrasive stick.
Seal surface of ram shaft, locking shaft & open and close piston rod: When there
is pull scar on seal surface, determine and treatment methods are as the main cylinder
sleeve. If the coating flakes away, it will be heavy leakage. So, it must change the new
parts.
Seal ring: First, inspect if there is wearing on the seal parts’ lip and cut wound on
O-ring, change it when there is damage or scar.
Piston: When the depth of uneven wear abrasion of movable seal surface of
piston is not more than 0.2mm, it should be changed. The other surfaces should not
have obvious scar, which will affect seal effect.

8.3 Installation of cylinder assembly

Assembling order is contrary to disassembling.

But, caution points is as following:
1) Inspect parts for burr or cusped edge. Get rid of them if there is. So, ensure the
seal ring from scratching. Pay attention to maintain clean.
2) When install seal ring, smear lubricating oil on the seal ring surface and the
counter-seal surface for easy to assembly.
3) Pay attention to the direction of lip seal ring. The open lip is face to the side of
pressure.
4) Pay attention to let the seal ring successfully pass through the screw parts without
scratching.

8.4 CHANGE OF BONNET SEAL RING

When the seal rubber or frame of bonnet seal ring is damaged, bonnet seal ring
should be removed. The detail procedures are as following:
1) Open the bonnet by hydraulic pressure and take out of the bonnet seal ring.
2) Change seal parts. Attention during installing seal parts: The bonnet seal ring is

34
13 5/8”-5000psi Ram BOP Rong Sheng Machinery Manufacture LTD. OF Huabei Oilfield, Hebei

directional. The O-ring should be installed into the seal ring groove of the middle
flange.
3) Install bonnet seal ring. Smear lubricating oil in the seal ring groove of the middle
flange and bonnet seal ring. Put the bonnet seal ring into the groove and lightly
knock it into the groove by copper bar at left and right side.

8.5 Mounting and Dismounting of the Piston Rod for Opening and

Closing the Bonnet
