API 17V - Recommended Practice for Analysis, Design, Installation and Testing of Safety Systems for Subsea Applications

Christopher Curran BSEE Workshop January 2014

Context

• Historically have used API 14C
• Advances in subsea developments led to BSEE

developing numerous NTLs:

– 2009 – G36 Using alternate compliance in safety systems for subsea production operations – Using secondary recovery methods including gas lift and water flood for subsea production operations – Subsea pumping for production operations

• API Summer 2011 – BSEE requested API to

address the gap

API RP17V – Subsea Safety Systems

• Work group formed Summer 2011 following

request from BSEE

• Closely following and working with API 14C
• First draft issued to reading group Summer 2012
• Second draft 2Q 2013
• API Ballot closed January 2014
• NB API 17O took 5 years, so this is fast track!
• BSEE have been actively engaged in this work

since its inception
