Application context
Well control hoses operate during BOP-stack well kicks — circulating kill mud and routing flowback through the choke manifold. API Specification 16C governs choke & kill lines (10000 psi WP, 15000 psi MBP). API 16D governs BOP control hoses (fire-resistant per ISO 15540). Subsea variants comply with API 17J.
Applicable standards
- API Spec 16D
- API RP 17H
- ISO 15540 fire test
How to order
Specify (a) the inner diameter, (b) the assembly length, (c) end-fitting flange spec (API 6A flange code, raised-face / ring-joint), and (d) any special service requirements (sour service, sub-zero / Arctic, fire-resistant cover). Indus engineering will confirm the assembly drawing on the RFQ — pressure-test certificates accompany every assembly.
Companion products
Pair with API 6A flanges, swivel joints, and the appropriate manifold valves. Indus is an authorised distributor for the Continental ContiTech and Manuli oil & gas hose ranges.

BOP control hose: why fire survival is half the specification
An API 16D control hose is rated on pressure like anything else — and then on something most hose never has to do: keep working inside a fire for long enough to shut the well in.

API 7K, 16C and 16D: which standard governs which hose on a rig
Three API specifications cover three different jobs, and they do not share a design factor. What each one governs, and why a 16C line at 10,000 psi has less margin than a hydraulic hose at 400 bar.
