Oil and Gas and Sulphur Operations in the Outer Continental
Shelf-Requirements for Subsurface Safety Valve Equipment
 (71 KB)
Regulatory Identifier Number (RIN) 1010–AD45
Federal Register Cite: Vol. 73, No. 114, FR 33333
(06/12/2008)
Summary: The MMS proposes to incorporate
the Eleventh Edition of the American Petroleum Institute’s
Specification for Subsurface Safety Valve Equipment (API Spec 14A),
into the regulations. The rule also proposes that lessees and
operators provide supporting design verification information for
subsurface safety valves intended for use in high pressure high
temperature environments. The MMS proposes to incorporate the
Eleventh Edition of API Spec 14A because it updated the design
validation and functional testing requirements, incorporated new
design changes, and corrected ambiguous areas open to
misinterpretation. These proposed changes would ensure that lessees
and operators use the best available and safest technologies while
operating in the Outer Continental Shelf.
