API TR 17TR8 Third Edition PDF
The scope of this technical report is to provide design guidelines for oil and gas subsea equipment utilized in high-pressure high-temperature (HPHT) environments (see 3.1.24). For the purpose of the technical report, HPHT environments are intended to be one or a combination of the following well conditions:
1) the completion of the well requires completion equipment or well control equipment assigned a pressure rating greater than 15,000 psia (15 ksi, 103.5 MPa) or a temperature rating greater than 350 °F (177 °C);
2) the maximum anticipated surface pressure including shut-in tubing pressure is greater than 15,000 psia (15 ksi, 103.5 MPa) on the seafloor for a well with a subsea wellhead or at the surface for a well with a surface wellhead; or
3) the flowing temperature is greater than 350 °F (177 °C) on the seafloor for a well with a subsea wellhead or at the surface for a well with a surface wellhead.
