SUMMARY
As part of the Blowout Preventer (BOP) Maintenance and Inspection for Deepwater Operations study
(Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement [BSEE] contract number M11PC00027),
American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) and ABSG Consulting Inc. (ABS Consulting) performed a
Failure Mode, Effect, and Criticality Analysis (FMECA) on specific BOP subsystems and
equipment. There were three FMECAs performed with three different teams of operators, drilling
contractors and original equipment manufacturers. This is the draft report of the FMECA conducted
with Team 2 and represents the study deliverable associated with Task 6.2.2.1 as outlined in the
contract.

This report presents the objective and scope of the FMECA study, FMECA methodology, FMECA
results/worksheets and discusses major findings of the two workshops (Functional-level and
Equipment-level) that were conducted on a selected BOP and associated equipment (Class VII BOP,
6 Rams,1 Annular) that met the study’s criteria (refer to Section 1.2 Analysis Scope for more detail).

The objectives of the FMECA analysis were to (1) establish the relationship between a specific
subsystem/equipment failure and a loss of system functionality, (2) identify the critical failures by
using risk-ranking methods, and (3) align the current maintenance, inspection, and testing (MIT)
practices and their associated frequencies with each functional failure and the associated subsystem
and equipment failures.

Section 2 of the report outlines the methodology used to conduct the FMECA. The FMECA was
conducted in two phases, functional-level and equipment-level. The functional-level (top-down)
FMECA was conducted to identify the functional failures that could degrade the BOP functions. The
equipment-level (bottom-up) FMECA was conducted to identify the impact of major equipment and
component failures on the BOP performance by evaluating equipment-level failure modes,
identifying specific equipment-level causes, identifying the safeguards to prevent or detect the failure
modes, and ranking the criticality of failure modes. In addition, the equipment-level FMECA was
used to align MIT activities with equipment-level failure modes and specific equipment failures.

In preparation for the FMECA, ABS Consulting engineers identified potential functional failures and
equipment-level failure modes to help guide the analysis team. Functional- and equipment-level
FMECA sessions were held with BOP subject matter experts from the original equipment
manufacturer (OEM), drilling contractor, and operator.    ABS Consulting and ABS engineers
facilitated and documented the analysis using ABS Consulting’s Enterprise LEADER software tool.

v
The team identified the eight BOP functions in American Petroleum Institute (API) Recommended
Practices (RP) 53, Third Edition, Section 7.1.3, and one additional function prior to the FMECA
analysis to meet the above objectives. During the FMECA session, it was determined that the “shear
the drill pipe and seal the wellbore” function needed to be broken down into three functions based on
differing operating conditions. The following 11 BOP functions were considered in the functional-
level FMECA:

1. Close and seal on the drill pipe and allow circulation on demand.
2. Close and seal on open hole and allow volumetric well control operations on demand.
3. Strip the drill string using the annular BOP(s).
4. Hang-off the drill pipe on a ram BOP and control the wellbore.
5. Controlled operation – Shear the drill pipe and seal the wellbore.
6. Emergency Operation – Auto-Shear – Shear the drill pipe and seal the wellbore.
7. Emergency Operation – Emergency Disconnect System (EDS) – Shear the drill pipe and seal
the wellbore.
8. Disconnect the lower marine-riser package (LMRP)/BOP.
9. Circulate the well after drill pipe disconnect.
10. Circulate across the BOP stack to remove trapped gas.
11. Connect BOP and LMRP at landing (not included API recommended practices [RP] 53).

During the functional-level FMECA, the analysis team evaluated these 11 BOP functions and their
52 associated functional failures. Each function and its associated functional failures were evaluated
in detail by identifying (1) the potential end effects resulting from the functional failure,
(2) equipment-level causes and failure modes potentially resulting in the functional failure, and
(3) safeguards used to prevent and/or detect the potential functional failure. Appendix A presents the
Functional-level FMECA worksheets, Appendix B presents the Equipment-level FMECA
worksheets.

For the equipment-level FMECA, the analysis team and industry participants (IP) identified and
evaluated the following 3 major BOP subsystems and 21 major equipment categories:

1. Surface Control System


1.1. Hydraulic Power Unit (HPU)
1.2. Power
1.3. Multiplex (MUX) System and Communication Cables
1.4. Hydraulic Supply
1.5. Control Panels
1.6. Accumulators – Surface
1.7. Fluid Reservoir Unit
1.8. Secondary & Emergency Control Systems

vi
2. Subsea Control System
2.1. Blue and Yellow Control Systems – Electrical Section
2.2. Blue and Yellow Control Systems – Hydraulics
2.3. Accumulators
2.4. Emergency Control Systems (ECS)
2.5. Hydraulic Supply, Rigid Conduit and Manifold
3. BOP Stack
3.1. Annulars
3.2. Blind Shear Ram
3.3. Casing Shear Ram
3.4. Pipe and Test Rams
3.5. Choke and Kill Lines and Valves
3.6. Connectors
3.7. Autoshear System
3.8. Remote operated vehicle (ROV) Intervention Interface

Note:
1- For the purpose of this study the “BOP System” is the first level of indenture in the BOP hierarchy (e.g. Surface
Control System, Subsea Control System, BOP Stack) and “Major BOP Component” is considered the second level of
indenture (e.g. MUX System, Annular).
2- The above naming convention was adopted during the FMECA sessions and are used throughout this FMECA report
and may differ slightly from industry subsystem or equipment naming convention; see Table1-1 for additional
information

Boundaries were established to further define the major equipment items by identifying all of the
components included with each major equipment item.
 
During the equipment-level FMECA meetings, the analysis team evaluated each major equipment
item by first identifying potential equipment-level failure modes and then postulating on specific
equipment failure causes resulting in each failure mode. The team then identified the potential effects
resulting from each failure mode. The effects were then identified and classified into various BOP
functional failures. Based on this classification the equipment-level failure modes and BOP were
linked with a corresponding BOP functional failure. Once these links were established, the analysis
team identified any safeguards that are currently in place to detect, prevent or mitigate the failure
mode. The analysis team then identified specific MIT practices currently employed to prevent or
detect the specific equipment failure causes.

In order to establish the potential risk of each equipment level failure mode, the analysis team used a
Risk Priority Number (RPN) scoring methodology. The identified failure mode effects were ranked
according to their severity, occurrence, and detection. The RPN for each effect (functional failure)
was determined and recorded. The severity rankings were based on the worst-case end effect of each
functional failure assuming that there is no redundancy. The occurrence rankings were based on the
frequency of the failure mode occurring, giving credit for any system redundancy in the system(s).

vii
Finally, the detection rankings were based on the probability of the failure mode being detected by
current protections (e.g. alarms) and/or current MIT practices. Appendix B contains the results of the
equipment-level FMECA.

Section 3 of this report contains the analysis results. The analysis team identified and evaluated
132 functional and 144 equipment failure modes. Even though each equipment item and its mode of
failure will affect the functionality of the BOP to a certain degree, the FMECA team identified the
following equipment items as the most critical items contributing to the BOP’s potential functional
failure:

 Choke & Kill Lines & Valves


 Blind Shear Ram
 Casing Shear Ram
 Pipe & Test Rams
 Autoshear Systems
 Connectors
 Control Panels
 Blue & Yellow Control Systems - Hydraulics
 Accumulator-Subsea

Table S-1 highlights the top 15% of the equipment failures that could potentially result in a severe
impact on functionality of the BOP.

The Choke & Kill Lines & Valves - BOP Stack was the highest ranked piece of equipment that could
have an effect on the BOP’s functionality and operation. The team identified 6 functional failures
that contributed to the failure of the Choke & Kill Lines & Valves - BOP Stack. The result of these
failure modes could potentially reduce or eliminate the associated equipment functionality and
possibly a loss of BOP operation.

xi
As identified above, the Blind Shear Ram is ranked as the second ranked piece of equipment whose
failure could potentially have a severe effect on the BOP’s overall ability to function properly when
demanded. Even though the occurrence of such a failure is identified as being fairly low (i.e., less
than one event every 5 years to one event every 10 years), the high severity and high detection (i.e.,
hard to detect) increase the risk of such a failure. Therefore the Blind Shear Ram is considered to be
the most critical piece of equipment that could lead to the loss of the primary function of the BOP. In
this study, “loss of primary function of the BOP” is defined as controlling the well.

The high severity rating in this case is attributed to the fact that the failure of the Blind Shear Ram
will diminish or eliminate the last protection for controlling the well (i.e. loss of primary function of
the BOP). The high detection rating is due to the low chance of discovering such a failure during
normal BOP operation. For example, mechanical failures might not be detected during normal BOP
operation and could only be discovered during a major preventive or planned maintenance. As
indicated in the above table, the Blind Shear Ram failure modes resulted in 18 functional failures that
could potentially result in the loss of BOP operation

According to the findings of this study, it appears that the highest critical failures are associated with
the detectability of these failures. A piece of equipment might function properly during a function
test or pressure test, but a hidden or dormant failure could occur because of the frequency of the test
or after the tests are conducted. Additionally, some failure modes simply cannot be detected during
normal testing and these types of failures may not be fully discovered until there is a real demand or
the equipment is pulled from the well and inspected during major preventive maintenance.

When comparing these highly ranked failure modes with the lower ranked failure modes, it is evident
that the rigorous MIT activities increase the detectability of the failures, therefore resulting in lower
criticality or RPN.

During the FMECA study, the causes of each failure mode were identified. Depending on the
equipment and the failure mode, components or other failure causes such as SEM communication,
bolts, seals, packing elements, insufficient volume, clogged lines, loss of signal, regulators, SPM
valves, shuttle valves, and filters were considered (see Appendix B for more detail). The team
identified and aligned the MIT activities for each failure mode and its causes.

The occurrence and detection rankings of the failure modes are a good indication of these facts.
After aligning the MIT activities with the failure modes, it was evident that there are sufficient
indication and detection factors in place for mitigating the failures or reducing the criticality.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
As part of the Blowout Preventer (BOP) Maintenance and Inspection for Deepwater Operations study
(Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement [BSEE] contract number M11PC00027),
American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) and ABSG Consulting Inc. (ABS Consulting) performed a
Failure Mode, Effect and Criticality Analysis on specific BOP subsystems and equipment. This
report represents the first draft Failure Mode, Effect, and Criticality Analysis (FMECA) deliverable
of the study associated with Task 6.2.2.1 as outlined in the contract.

Three FMECAs were performed with three different analysis teams. Each analysis team included
personnel from a BOP original equipment manufacturer (OEM), drilling contractor, and an operator,
with the condition that these three industry participants (IPs) have a working relationship and operate
a drilling rig using the BOP equipment manufactured by the OEM participating in the FMECA
sessions.

This report presents the objective and scope of the FMECA study, FMECA methodology and
worksheets and the results of the functional- and equipment-level FMECAs that were conducted on a
Class VII BOP with six rams and one annular. This section details the FMECA objectives, scope, and
analysis team participants.

1.1 OBJECTIVES
The objectives of the FMECA were to (1) establish the relationship between a specific
subsystem/equipment failure and a loss of system functionality, (2) identify the critical failures by
using risk-ranking methods, and (3) align the current maintenance, inspection, and testing (MIT)
practices and their associated frequencies with each functional failure and the associated subsystem
and equipment failures.

1.2 ANALYSIS SCOPE


The scope of this effort was the analysis of a selected BOP and associated equipment from one of the
OEMs, drilling contractors and operators participating in the study that meets the following criteria:

 Operation Location – Gulf of Mexico (majority of the operation and maintenance to be from
the Gulf of Mexico)
 Operating Depth – 5,000 Feet and Deeper
 BOP Configurations:
o Class VI BOP, five ram configuration and single annular or a four ram and dual annular
o Class VII BOP, five ram configuration and dual annular or a six ram and single annular
o Class VIII BOP, six ram configuration and dual annular(ram configurations can consist
of a combination of blind/shear ram, non-sealing casing ram and pipe ram preventers)

Class VI BOP Class VII BOP Class VIII BOP

The analysis included the compilation of information from IPs, followed by the review and analysis
of the selected BOP and associated control systems used by the driller.

The analytical scope for the functional-level FMECA consisted for the evaluation of the eight BOP
functions specified in American Petroleum Institute (API) recommended practices (RP) 53 Standard,
Section 7.1.3, and the additional functions identified by the analysis team. During the FMECA
session, it was determined that the “shear the drill pipe and seal the wellbore” function needed to be
broken down into three functions based on differing operating condition/logic. A total of 11 major
BOP functions and 52 functional failures were identified and agreed upon. The following BOP
functions were evaluated in this study:

1. Close and seal on the drill pipe and allow circulation on demand.
2. Close and seal on open hole and allow volumetric well control operations on demand.
3. Strip the drill string using the annular BOP(s).
4. Hang-off the drill pipe on a ram BOP and control the wellbore.
5. Controlled operation – Shear the drill pipe and seal the wellbore.
6. Emergency operation – Auto-Shear – Shear the drill pipe and seal the wellbore.
7. Emergency operation – Emergency Disconnect System (EDS) – Shear the drill pipe and seal
the wellbore.
8. Disconnect the Lower Marine-Riser Package (LMRP)/BOP.
9. Circulate the well after drill pipe disconnect.
10. Circulate across the BOP stack to remove trapped gas.
11. Connect BOP and LMRP at Landing (not included in API RP 53 Standard).

For the equipment-level FMECA, the BOP was divided into 3 major BOP subsystems and 21 major
equipment items. The following represents the selected functions and BOP systems/equipment for
the FMECA assessment:

1. Surface Control System

To prepare for the FMECA studies, ABS and ABS Consulting held a FMECA kickoff meeting with
the IPs on December 6 and 7, 2011. The purposes of the kickoff meeting were to discuss the FMECA
analysis approach and the analysis scope to help ensure that all participants have the same level of
understanding of the FMECA procedures.
The functional-level FMECA study was conducted by the analysis team during sessions held on

2.0 ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY
In order to evaluate BOP MIT practices, reduce the risk of failures and improve the reliability of
BOP performance, it is essential to identify the BOP’s critical failure modes and their effects.
Therefore, ABS and ABS Consulting selected and employed both functional- and equipment-level
FMECA methodologies to evaluate BOP functions and identify specific subsystem and equipment
failures of interest as outlined in Section 1.2, Analysis Scope.

This analysis methodology was chosen because it provided a means to establish a relationship among
(1) BOP functions, (2) BOP equipment failures, and (3) BOP MIT practices by

 Identifying the potential effects resulting from deviations to BOP functions (i.e., functional
failures) and equipment-level failure modes causing the BOP functional failures.
 Identifying the potential functional failures resulting from BOP equipment failure modes and
specific equipment failures causing the BOP equipment failure modes.
 Linking specific equipment failures to BOP functional failures.
 Identifying and aligning the MIT activities (Indication / Protection / Maintenance) currently
provided for preventing specific equipment failures resulting in BOP functional failures and
their potential end effects.
 Risk-ranking the equipment-level failure modes.

2.1 ANALYSIS APPROACH


FMECA is an inductive reasoning approach that (1) considers how the functional failures of each
system function or the failure modes of each component could result in system performance
problems and (2) helps evaluate safeguards that are in place (including engineered protections &
monitoring systems, human actions, and maintenance activities) to prevent, detect or mitigate such
problems. The main focus of a FMECA is to establish the cause-and-effect relationship between
potential equipment failures, functional failures, and the end effect of those failures, and to evaluate
the criticality of the postulated functional failure/failure mode.

Figure 2-1 represents the general FMECA steps used in evaluating the BOP system. Specifically, this
study employed both functional- and equipment-level FMECA approaches (see Step 3) with the
explicit purpose of transitioning the functional-level FMECA to a more detailed level to better ensure
the alignment of MIT activities with specific equipment failures and link the specific equipment
failures with their potential impact of BOP performance via functional failures. This FMECA
approach is very similar to the approach employed in many classical reliability-centered maintenance
approaches, which have the overall objective of determining the optimal maintenance strategy for
preserving system functionality via detection and prevention of equipment failures.

2.2 ANALYSIS PROCEDURES
This section summarizes the procedures and specific tools used in performing the functional- and
equipment-level FMECAs. In addition, the risk priority number approach that was used to risk rank
the functional failure effects and equipment failure mode pairs has been provided. More explanation
on the ranking method is given in Section 2.2.3.

2.2.1 Functional Level (Top-Down) FMECA


The functional-level FMECA was performed by analyzing each function and its associated functional
failures. The functional-level FMECA process is illustrated in Figure 2-2. In executing this
procedure, the following operating modes were applied:

 Normal Drilling
 Kick Control
 Emergency Operation (e.g., disconnect)
 Riding the Storm

In addition, the following are consequences of interest for identifying end effects of interest during
the functional-level FMECA:

 Safety Effects
o Inability to Control or Correct a Well Kick (or other BOP function)
o Potential Release of Hydrocarbon to the Atmosphere Resulting in Potential Fire,
Explosion, and/or Exposure to Toxic Materials Causing Injury or Worse
 Environmental Effects
o Inability to Control or Correct a Well Kick (or other BOP function)
o Potential Release of Hydrocarbons to the environment resulting in a Minor, Significant,
Small (<1,000 bbls), Medium (1,000 to 10,000 bbl.), or Large (>10,000 bbl.)
Spill/Atmospheric Release
 Significant Downtime
o Failures Requiring Pulling of the LMRP or BOP Stack
o Downtime Exceeding 5 Days

In evaluating potential end effects, the team evaluated the severities based on worst-case end effects
assuming that available safeguards do not prevent or mitigate the end effects. Therefore, the end
effects represent the potential severity and conservatively overstate the expected consequences.

Figure 2-2. Functional-level FMECA Procedure

Specifically during the functional-level FMECA, the analysis team evaluated 11 BOP functions and
48 associated functional failures. Table 2-1 list the functions and functional failures evaluated.

During the functional-level FMECA workshop, the analysis team evaluated each of the
above-mentioned functions and functional failures in detail by identifying (1) the potential end
effects resulting from the functional failures, (2) the equipment-level causes and failure modes
resulting in each potential functional failure, and (3) the safeguards used to prevent or detect the
potential functional failure and its associated equipment-level causes. These evaluations were
recorded in tabular format using the Enterprise LEADER software. The equipment-level causes and
failure modes were then studied in detail during the equipment-level FMECA workshop.

2.2.2 Equipment Level (Bottom-Up) FMECA


The equipment-level FMECA was performed by analyzing each major component with its associated
sub-components using equipment-level failure modes. Figure 2-3 outlines the equipment-level
FMECA process.

The analysis team evaluated the 20 major equipment items and their associated sub-components
listed in Table 1-1.

To evaluate each equipment item, a list of the general failure modes was developed during the
FMECA kick-off meeting and is provided in Table 2-2. During the equipment-level FMECA, the
analysis team modified these general equipment failure modes to describe the means in which each
major component can fail.

sequence error)

15
Once a major component’s failure modes were identified, the analysis team evaluated each
equipment-level failure mode by:

1. Postulating on specific equipment causes resulting in the failure mode and


2. Then identifying the potential effects resulting from each failure mode.

The equipment-level effects were identified as BOP functional failures and then electronically linked
in Enterprise LEADER to establish the relationship between specific equipment-level failure modes
and BOP functions. Once these links were established, the analysis team identified any safeguards
that are currently in place to prevent or detect or mitigate the failure mode before the end effects
associated with the BOP functional failure are realized. Next, the analysis team identified specific
MIT practices currently employed to prevent or detect the specific equipment causes. These
evaluations, along with criticality rankings described below, were recorded in tabular format using
the Enterprise LEADER software.

2.2.3 Evaluation and Ranking of Equipment Failure Modes (Criticality/Risk Ranking)


To provide a consistent means to evaluate the relative criticality of BOP subsystem/component
failures and to help judge the sufficiency of MIT activities performed to prevent and detect the
failures, a risk priority number ranking scheme based the following factors was employed:

 Frequency of Failure of the Major Equipment Failure Mode


 Level of Redundancy to Prevent Specific Failure from Resulting in Complete Loss of Safety
Critical Functions
 Ability to Detect and Prevent the Failure Mode via MIT Practices (Indication / Protection /
Maintenance column in Appendix B)
 Severity of End Effect for Each BOP Functional Failure

A Risk Priority Number (RPN) ranking for each functional failure associated with an equipment-
level failure mode was based on the product of the following three independent factors:

 Severity Rating – This rating assesses the severity of worst-case end effect for a given
functional failure. (Note: The functional failure end effects documented in the functional-
level FMECA were used to determine this rating assuming no redundancies are present.)
 Occurrence Rating – This rating assesses the likelihood of the failure mode resulting in the
functional failure and its stated end effect. This rating takes into consideration any safeguards
that are in place to detect, prevent or mitigate the failure mode from resulting in the
functional failure. These are the Protection (P) items in the Indication / Protection /
Maintenance column of Appendix B. The presence of redundant components and systems is
explicitly considered in this rating.

16
 Detection Rating – This rating assesses the likelihood of the current applicable inspection and
maintenance activities to detect the failure mode before it results in the functional failure.
These ratings are based on the Indication (I) and Maintenance (M) items from the Indication /
Protection / Maintenance column of Appendix B.

The severity, occurrence, and detection ratings are provided in Tables 2-3 through 2-5, respectively.
These ratings were then used to calculate a single RPN ranking for each functional failure effect and
equipment failure mode pair (i.e., RPN ranking for each functional failure associated with an
equipment-level failure mode) using the following equation:

RPN = Severity Rating X Occurrence Rating X Detection Rating

The individual RPN rankings provide a relative ranking of the risk associated with a given functional
failure effect-equipment failure mode pair. Thereby, providing a means to identify the most critical
equipment-level failure modes in overall BOP performance, as well as, identifying the more critical
failure modes associated with a specific BOP functional failure.

3.0 FMECA RESULTS
This section summarizes the results of the FMECA analysis—specifically, the results of the
functional-level and equipment-level FMECAs which are provided in tabular format in
Appendices A and B, respectively. These appendices also include a description of the FMECA table
information.

In addition to the tabular results provided in the above-mentioned appendices, the following tables
provide a more detailed look at the most critical failure modes based on the RPN rankings. Each of
the following tables presents the results against a specific set of criteria described below. The
complete data from which these tables have been derived is provided in Appendices C and D, which
are essentially a reformatted presentation of Appendix B. In each of the following tables, the shaded
column indicates the sorting order.

Table 3-1 presents the top 15% of failure modes with the highest RPN score. RPN scores from the
FMECA range from 6–160, with the top 15% ranging from 120–160. Tables 3-1a and 3-1b present
the same data but are sorted differently; Table 3-1a is sorted by RPN and Table 3-1b is sorted by
Major Equipment/Subsystem. Table 3-1 represents what are considered to be the most critical failure
modes. It should be noted that each failure mode may be associated with multiple effects/functional
failures as shown in the last column of the tables. Table 3-1b suggests that failures of the - Choke &
Kill lines & valves, Surface Accumulators, Blind Shear Ram and Casing Shear Ram are the most
dominant equipment of concern.

Table 3-4 shows the equipment failure modes with a detection ranking greater than or equal to 6,
which are the hardest to detect. This list helps identify the equipment-level failure modes for which
additional MIT activities may be needed. Detection results from this FMECA range from 1–10.
Hydraulic supply: Rigid Conduit and Manifold and Connectors have the worst detectability followed
by casing shear ram and surface hydraulic supply

Equipment failure modes with a severity ranking of 10, an occurrence ranking greater than or equal
to 3 and detection ranking greater than 5 are also of interest. These are the equipment failures that
occur most frequently and could result in the highest severity and are the hardest to detect. No
failures in the FMECA meet this criterion.

The effect of each equipment level failure is linked to a functional failure. Table 3-6 lists the top 25%
of effects/functional failures with the highest average RPN for all of the equipment failures
associated with that functional failure. External Leak - Loss of containment - Close and seal on the
drill pipe and allow circulation on demand (linked to 1.1.8.1) has the six worst average RPN scores.

4.0 CONCLUSIONS
The initial assessment showed that based on the criticality ranking, the following equipment and their
failure modes were identified as the top 25% of the critical items contributing to the BOP’s potential
functional failure:

 Choke & Kill Lines & Valves - BOP Stack


 Blind Shear Ram - BOP Stack
 Casing Shear Ram - BOP Stack
 Casing Shear Ram - BOP Stack
 Casing Shear Ram - BOP Stack
 Pipe & Test Rams - BOP Stack
 Pipe & Test Rams - BOP Stack
 Autoshear System - BOP Stack
 Blue & Yellow Control Systems - Hydraulics - Subsea Control Systems
 Connectors - BOP Stack
 Hydraulic Supply: Rigid Conduit and Manifold - Subsea Control Systems
 Hydraulic Supply: Rigid Conduit and Manifold - Subsea Control Systems
 Accumulators - Subsea Control Systems

The top 10% of equipment by RPN, as discussed, are - Choke & Kill lines & valves, , Blind Shear
Ram and Casing Shear Ram.

The MIT data and the failure data provided by the drilling contractor and the OEM were reviewed
against the FMECA results. The findings are presented in Section 3 of this report.

This preliminary FMECA analysis and assessment report is submitted for review by the IPs. The
final report may bear the modifications suggested during the review process.
