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
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.
