API RP 17M

Provides functional requirements and recommendations for ROT intervention systems and interfacing equipment on subsea production systems for the petroleum and natural gas industries. This RP does not cover manned intervention and ROV-based intervention systems (e.g. for tie-in of sealines and module replacement). Vertical wellbore intervention, internal flowline inspection, tree running and tree running equipment are also excluded from this RP.

This edition of API RP 17M is an identical adoption of ISO 13628-9, Petroleum and natural gas industries-Design and operation of subsea production systems-Part 9: Remotely operated tool (ROT) intervention systems.
