3. Field Fault Repair Case
Case: Piston Seal Leakage Under Steam Operation
Symptom: FH35-35/70 BOP showed hydraulic fluid leakage during steam-heated drilling (115℃). Root Cause: Seal-Piston O.D. (FW1305.16-00) suffered thermal hardening and friction wear due to insufficient high-temp lubrication. Repair: Replaced O-rings with genuine FW1305.16-00 parts, applied high-temp grease (complying with API 16A § 5.3), and cleaned piston surface. Preventive Measure: Lubricate piston seals every 8 hours of steam operation; monitor fluid temperature to avoid exceeding 120℃.
4. FAQ
Question | Answer |
Why can’t common rubber seals replace fluororubber ones for this BOP? | Fluororubber (per GB/T 5574-2008) resists 150℃ high temp and steam erosion, while common rubber hardens or decomposes above 80℃. Using substitutes causes rapid leakage and BOP failure in steam-heated scenarios. |
How often should wear rings be inspected for replacement? | Polyurethane wear rings (FH3535NL series) should be inspected monthly. Replace when wear depth reaches 3mm or surface cracks appear—excessive wear causes piston misalignment and seal damage. |
What is the impact of thermal cycling on cap nuts and studs? | Thermal cycling causes expansion and contraction, leading to thread loosening. Retorque cap nuts (FW1305-03) and studs (FW1305-04) after each steam cycle, and replace if thread deformation is detected to avoid bonnet leakage. |
