ANSI/API RP 14H

One of the means of assuring positive wellstream shutoff is th euse of the wellhead surface safety valve (SSV) or underwater safety valve (USV). It is imperative that the SSV/USV be mechanically reliable. It should therefore be operated, tested and maintained in a manner to assure continously reliable performance. The purpose of this recommended practice is to provide guidance for inspecting, installing, operating, maintaining, and onsite repairing SSVs/USVs manufactured according to API Spec 6A (17th Edition or later), Clause 10.20 or API Spec 14D (withdrawn). Included are procedures for testing SSVs/USVs. This document covers guidelines for inspecting, installing, maintaining, onsite repairing, and operating SSVs/USVs. Nothing in this document is to be construed as a fixed rule without regard to sound engineering judgement nor is it intended to override applicable federal, state or local laws.
