Abstract
A system and a method for controlling a subsea blowout preventer stack with a subsea well control system having sensors and a well control programmable logic controller. The sensors are coupled to the subsea blowout preventer stack and a subsea blowout preventer control system. The subsea blowout preventer control system operates the subsea blowout preventer stack. The sensors sense a condition of the subsea blowout preventer stack and the subsea blowout preventer control system and transmit a signal representing a value of the condition to the well control programmable logic controller. The well control programmable logic controller receives the signal from the sensors, compares the value to a preset value, and in response to the value greater than or equal to the preset value, and transmits a command signal to the subsea blowout preventer control system to seal a fluid flow through the subsea blowout preventer stack.
