Well Control: BOP Accumulator Unit (Koomey Unit)

The document discusses an accumulator unit (Koomey unit) used in well control. It provides calculations to determine the usable fluid volume in the accumulator bottle. It then provides descriptions of potential issues that could occur when shutting in a well from a remote panel, including a blown bulb, faulty micro switch, plugged hydraulic line, leak in the hydraulic system, failed 4-way valve, incorrect use of the master control valve, and loss of air pressure to the remote panel.

Usable Fluid
Accumulator Bottle Size 10 Gallon
Boyle’s Low :
P1 V 1 = P 2 V 2 = P 3 V 3
V1 P1 3000 PSI
Therefore :
P3V3 P3V3
V1 = and V2 =
P1 P2 V2
V3 VU = V 2 – V1
With VU = V2 – V1 P2

The Formula Becomes


1200 PSI
VU =
P3 V 3
P2 - P 3 V3
P1
P3
1000 PSI

VU =
1000X10
1200
- 1000X10
3000
VU = 5 Gallon
