Establishes design standards for control systems, subsystems and components used to control BOP's (blowout preventers) and associated choke and kill valves that control well pressure during drilling operations. Although diverters are not considered well control devices, their controls are often incorporated as part of the BOP control system. Control systems for drilling well control equipment typically use stored energy in the form of pressurized hydraulic fluid (power fluid) to operate (open & close) the BOP stack components. Each operation of a BOP or other well component is referred to as a control function. The control system equipment & circuitry varies generally in accordance with the application & environment. Six control system categories are addressed in this edition of RP 16E.
