Tandem Boosters for UM BOPs
A BOP equipped with tandem boosters can deliver increased shearing force while not in-
creasing the wear and tear on the packers. Tandem boosters approximately double the
force available to shear pipe. Since the tailrod of the tandem booster has the same stroke
as the BOP’s operating piston, the standard shear locking mechanism can be installed on
the outside end of the booster. For information on lock screws and the required spacers,
see page 17.
For information concerning applications where a tandem booster is required, consult
your Cameron representative.

UM BOP Specifications and Accessories
The following specifications apply to typical Cameron UM type BOPs. Your Cameron rep-
resentative can provide information on non-standard BOP assemblies.
• Side outlets to 4-1/16” can be provided beneath each set of rams on either or both
sides of UM BOPs. Side outlets can be studded, open-face flange or clamp hub with
the same pressure rating as the vertical run connections.
• Flanges conform to API standard 6A and/or 16A. Hubs conform to API 16A or
applicable standards. Type 6BX flanges are standard for 10,000 and 15,000 psi
working pressures and for 5000 psi for 13-5/8” BOPs.
• Hydraulic control connections for operation of rams and bonnets are 1” NPT. There
are two connections for each set of rams.
*One required. **Two required for single preventer, four for double preventer. ***Commercially available sockets are recommended.
TC1542 22
UM BOP Ram Hang-Off Weights and
Shear Requirements
Hang-Off Weights
Hang-off weights are estimated capacities with hardened top corners of the hang-off
rams. This enables the rams to dig into the tool joint and provide superior hang-off capac-
ity while still meeting NACE requirements.
For variable bore rams (VBRs) and FLEXPACKER rams, hang-off weights up to 300,000
lb (136,078 kg) on hang-off rams for the lower pipe size in the range, 600,000 lb (272,155
kg) for the larger pipe size in the range.
Note: See page 19 for a complete list of part numbers for the ltandem boosters.
TC1542 23
U and UM BOP Pipe Rams
Pipe rams are available for use in Cameron UM BOPs to fit all commonly used sizes of tub-
ing, drill pipe, drill collar or casing within the ranges in the charts on pages 25, 26, and 27.
Cameron pipe rams include the following features:
• Cameron pipe rams are self-feeding and incorporate a large reservoir of packer
rubber to ensure a long-lasting seal under all conditions.
• Ram packers lock into place and are not dislodged by well flow.
• All Cameron pipe rams are suitable for H2S service per NACE MR-01-75.
• CAMRAM™ top seals are standard for all U and UM BOP pipe rams from 7-1/16”
through 18-3/4” sizes. Packer part numbers beginning with 644xxx indicate the
CAMRAM lipped-plate design. All other packers use standard elastomer material and
reinforcement plates.
• CAMRAM 350™ packers and top seals are available for high temperature service and
for service in which concentrations of H2S are expected.

U and UM BOP Shearing Blind Rams
Cameron shearing blind rams shear the pipe in the hole, then bend the lower section of
sheared pipe to allow the rams to close and seal. Shearing blind rams can be used as blind
rams during normal drilling operations.
The DS shearing blind ram can cut larger diameter tubulars or multiple tubing strings
regardless of their orientation to the centerline of the ram. A blade seal between the up-
per and lower faces eliminates the need for moving pipe after shearing.
Features of shearing blind rams and DS rams include:
• Large frontal area on the blade face seal reduces pressure on the rubber and
increases service life.
• Cameron SBRs can cut pipe numerous times without damage to the cutting edge.
• CAMRAM™ top seals are standard for all U and UM BOP shearing blind rams
through 18-3/4”. Part numbers beginning with 644xxx indicate CAMRAM. All other
top seals are standard elastomer material.
• H2S SBRs are available for critical service applications and include a blade material of
hardened high alloy suitable for H2S service.
• The Cameron shearing blind ram has a single-piece body with an integrated cutting
edge.

Flexpackers for U and UM BOPs
The Cameron FLEXPACKER ram is designed to close and seal around several diameters of
tubing and pipe. These packers can be used in existing Cameron BOPs. Features include:
• Stacks of metal inserts bonded into the elastomer move radially in the elastomer as
the BOP rams are closed.
As rams are energized, the proper set of metal inserts is forced against the pipe. The top
plate of the packer fits the largest diameter of pipe.

7. Remove the 1” ball valves or pipe plugs from the inlet and outlet connec-
tions.
8. Connect the hydraulic control lines, and flush the operating system with
clean fluid.
9. Test for leaks in the operating system (refer to Part VII, TESTING.)
10. Install the rams in accordance with the assembly procedure described in Part
IV, ASSEMBLY.
11. While installing the rams, inspect the ram bore and bonnet.
b. Inspect the intersection between the vertical bore and the ram bore.
Grind out any raised metal surfaces. Do not remove any metal below the
original surface.
Caution: To avoid damage to the packers, close pipe and variable bore rams only when
pipe is in the preventer.
2. Pressure test and operate the preventer once a week per API RP53 “Periodic
Field Testing” or appropriate regulatory agency requirement.
B. Periodic Maintenance
1. Once a year, or every six months in cold weather conditions, completely dis-
assemble the preventer.
TC1542 45
d. Repair or replace damaged metal parts.
a. After reassembling the preventer, test the rams and operating system. Re-
fer to Part VII, TESTING for the correct procedure.
VII. Testing
A. Hydraulic Operating System
1. Test the hydraulic operating system after installation.
1) Apply a maximum of 300 psi (20.7 Bars) hydraulic pressure to the OPEN
port.
4) Apply a maximum of 300 psi (20.7 Bars) hydraulic pressure to the CLOSE
port.
Note: If testing pipe, casing, flex packers, or variable bore rams, be sure that an appropri-
ate size test mandrel is installed into the preventer. DO NOT close the rams on an
open hole unless closing pressure is less than 300 psi (20.7 Bars). Flex Packers and
VBRs should be tested with the largest pipe size for that packer.
2) Apply 300 psi (20.7 Bars) hydraulic pressure to the CLOSE port, and ob-
serve the OPEN port for leaks.
3) Increase the pressure to 3000 psi (207 Bars) and observe the OPEN port
for leaks.
4) Inspect for leaks between the intermediate flange, the bonnet, and the
BOP body. Bleed all pressure from the BOP closing line.
TC1542 46
5) Replace the hydraulic line to the OPEN port.
7) Apply 300 psi (20.7 Bars) hydraulic pressure to the OPEN port, and ob-
serve the CLOSE port for leaks.
8) Increase the pressure to 3000 psi (207 Bars) and observe the CLOSE port
for leaks.
9) Inspect for leaks between the intermediate flange, body, and bonnet.
Bleed all pressure from the BOP opening line.
11) Replace the seals if leaks were observed and repeat the test with new
seals.
B. Ram Test
(After installation and as required by API RP53 or appropriate regulatory
agency.)
1. Hydraulically test ram packers with water using the following procedure:
a. Install the BOP stack on a prepared test stump or install a test plug below
the BOP if on the wellhead.
b. Inspect for ram packer leaks at low pressure by closing rams on an appro-
priate size test mandrel (none if blinds or shears are used) with 1500 psi
(103 Bars) operating pressure, and apply 200 psi (13.8 Bars) pressure under
the rams. Hold pressure for 3 minutes. Maximum pressure drop is 10 psi
(.7 Bars) in 3 minutes.
d. If rams leak at low pressure or at working pressure, inspect for worn ram
packers and replace if necessary.
e. Repeat the above procedure for each set of casing, pipe and shear rams.
VIII. Storage
A. Preventer
1. Open the bonnets and remove the ram subassemblies.
TC1542 47
2. Remove the top seals and packers, then wash the ram subasemblies.
Note: Rubber products that have been put into service and that are subsequently stored,
will have an unpredictable shelf-life. This is attributable to their varied physical con-
dition when returned to storage, due to the inability to completely remove
elastomeric solvents (hydrocarbon contaminates, etc.) and storage in a container
filled with air (chemically active gases).
6. Dry with an air blaster until no moisture is left inside or outside the
preventer.
7. Inspect the ram bores and the vertical bores for burrs.
10. Lubricate the end and outlet connection faces with a heavy grease, and cover
them with flange protectors.
12. Fill the operating system with preservation fluid Cameron P/N 718100.
13. Install the 1” NPT pipe plugs into the OPEN and CLOSE connections.
14. To lift the preventer, use appropriately rated slings around the ends of the
body.
B. Elastomers
1. Store rubber products inside a cool, dark, and dry storage area.
a. The preferred storage temperature range for rubber goods is from 40°F to
80°F (4.4°C to 26.7°C).
TC1542 48
c. Store rubber parts in a relaxed position. Do not stretch or hang O-rings
and seals. Labels should not be attached to seals with string, wire, or tape,
as these items may deform the sealing surface.
4. Keep the rubber products clean and free of solvents, oil, greases, or any
other semi-solid or liquid materials during storage. Rubber goods should spe-
cifically be protected against direct contact with: manganese, copper, copper
alloys (including brass), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), creosote-impregnated tim-
ber, other rubber goods of different rubber compounds, sulphur, and copper
napthenate.
5. When cleaning is necessary, rubber goods may be cleaned with either soap
and water or methyl alcohol. After cleaning, the rubber goods should be
dried at room temperature.
Important: Rubber goods taken from storage must ALWAYS be inspected before installa-
tion. Rubber goods should not be flexed at temperatures below 40°F (4.4°C).
Rubber goods in storage should be inspected every 12 months to ensure that
they are still serviceable.
a. Ensure that the part does not have a tacky surface or noticeable softening
or hardening of the surface.
b. Flex the part and inspect with a magnifying glass to ensure that there are
no cracks.
c. Replace items which show any of the aging signs mentioned above.
