About This Item
Full Description
Each owner and operator is encouraged to observe the recommendations outlined herein and to supplement them with other proven technology that can result in a more cost-effective, safer, and/or more reliable performance.
The marine drilling riser is best viewed as a system. It is necessary that designers, contractors, and operators realize that the individual components are recommended and selected in a manner suited to the overall performance of that system. For the purposes of this document, a marine drilling riser system includes the tensioner system and all equipment between the top connection of the upper flex/ball joint to the lower flex joint. However, it specifically excludes the diverter. Also, the applicability of this document is limited to operations with a subsea BOP stack.
Sections 1 through 7 are applicable to most floating drilling operations. In addition, special situations and topics are addressed in Section 8 dealing with deepwater drilling, cold weather environments, riser collapse, hydrogen sulfide (H2S), well testing, and managed pressure drilling (MPD).
