18-3/4” 15,000 psi Conventional Ram Blowout Preventer

1. ® 18-3/4” 15,000 psiConventional RamBlowout Preventer

2. Blowout Preventer (BOP) The equipment (or valve) installed at the wellhead to contain wellbore pressure either in the annular space between the casing and the tubulars or in an open hole during drilling, completion, testing,or workover operations. Ram Blowout Preventer A valve that uses metal blocks with integral elastomer seals to seal off pressure on a wellbore with or without tubulars in the bore.

3. 18-3/4 - 15,000 Ram BOP • Field replaceable seal seat for long service life and easy field repair • Multiple position locking (MPL) automatically locks rams in a seal-off position • BOP can be equippedwith blind shear,variable, pipe or casingrams for ultimate wellcontrol flexibility • Cylinder liners field replaceable • Hinged bonnets for ease of ram access • Fluid hinges removable for rapid simple seal replacement • One piece piston rod for strength and durability

4. 18-3/4 15,000 Ram BOP • Bonnet bolts sized and arranged for reliable bonnet seal operation and proper bonnet stress distribution • Side outlets • Availablepressureenergized bonnetseal conversion • Stainless steel linedring grooves forcorrosion resistance • Piston seals pressure energizedlip seal for reliable seal operation

5. OperationHydraulic Circuit • Application of hydraulic pressure to the operating cylinders pushes the pistons inward or outward to close or open the rams • The multiple position lock is an automaticlock, locking the rams in place after theyare closed hydraulically • Operating chambers are ratedfor 3000 psi continuousoperation and have beentested to 4500 psi • Hydraulic closing pressuresfrom 100 psi to 300 psi indicate satisfactory operation

6. OperationHydraulic Circuit (continued) • Hydraulic pressure applied to closing port initiates fluid flow in drilled passages in the BOP body • Fluid flows from the body through the fluid hinge to the bonnet hinge • Fluid then flows from the bonnet hinge through a drilled passage in the bonnet and exits between the cylinder and cylinder liner

7. OperationHydraulic Circuit (continued) • Fluid then acts on the backside of the rams closing them • Fluid from the opening sides is pushedout the porting in the bonnet • Fluid flows through a drilledpassage in bonnet and intothe bonnet hinge • Fluid then passes throughthe seal sub in the fluidhinge, through the drilled passage in the preventer body and out through the opening chamber port

8. Multiple Position Lock (MPL) • Opening and closing controlled byuni-directional clutch mechanism,lock (overhauling) nut andlock (overhauling) screw • The clutch mechanismmaintains nut and ram inlocked position • The clutch is disengagedby hydraulic pressureto open the ram

9. Multiple Position Lock (MPL)(continued) How the MPL Works • Tail rod contains two types of threads • One end - standard LH Acme thread • Other end - fast lead 6-path helical thread • Mating nut fitted to the tail rod • Nut contained by two thrust bearingspermitting rotation but preventing linear travel • Linear motion of the tail rod during closingor opening causes nut to rotate • Fast lead, 6-path helical thread rotates thenut three turns per foot of travel

10. Multiple Position Lock (MPL)(continued) How the MPL Works • Rear clutch plate and front clutch • Contact of rear clutch plate to front clutch platemaintained by spring force • Rotation in the opening direction prevented byinterlocking teeth • Sloped angle of teeth permits rotation in closing direction • Hydraulic opening pressure acts on the cylinderliner to release locking mechanism • Cylinder liner moves back against transfer ring • Transfer ring bears on the rear clutch platedisengaging it from the front clutch plate • Opening pressure on the piston moves the ramto the open position as the lock nut and front clutch plate rotate freely

11. Multiple Position Lock (MPL)(continued) How the MPL Works • The front clutch plate is bolted to the lock(overhauling) nut. • Four rectangular keys in the rear clutch plateengage slots in the retainer plate • Allows linear motion and prevents rotational motionof the rear clutch plate • Springs are captured between rear clutch plate and retainer plate • Opening forces on the piston rod held in check by thelock nut • Opening force creates torque in the lock nut • Torque is transmitted through the engaged teeth of front and rear clutch plates • The rear clutch plate is keyed to the retainer plate • The retainer plate is pinned to the cylinder head thus preventing rotation and locking the assembly

12. Multiple Position Lock (MPL)(continued) How the MPL Works • Application of hydraulicopening pressure permitsrams to open • Hydraulic pressure acting onthe cylinder liner moves it backto disengage the clutch • Continued application ofopening pressure maintainsthe clutch unlocked and opensthe rams

13. Multiple Position Lock (MPL)(continued) How the MPL Works • Provision for testing MPL • Two lockout devices • Prevent cylinder liner from disengaging clutch • Opening pressure simulates opening forces applied to the ram • Visual indication of position of lockouts provided
