You must conduct a weekly well-control drill with each drilling crew. Your drill must familiarize the crew with its roles and functions so that all crew members can perform their duties promptly and efficiently.
(a) Well-control drill plan. You must prepare a well control drill plan for each well. Your plan must outline the assignments for each crew member and establish times to complete each portion of the drill. You must post a copy of the well control drill plan on the rig floor or bulletin board.
(b) Timing of drills. You must conduct each drill during a period of activity that minimizes the risk to drilling operations. The timing of your drills must cover a range of different operations, including drilling with a diverter, on-bottom drilling, and tripping.
(c) Recordkeeping requirements. For each drill, you must record the following in the driller's report:
(1) The time to be ready to close the diverter or BOP system; and
(2) The total time to complete the entire drill.
(d) BSEE ordered drill. A BSEE authorized representative may require you to conduct a well control drill during a BSEE inspection. The BSEE representative will consult with your onsite representative before requiring the drill.
