n: on offshore floating rigs, a large spool, or reel, onto which the hose bundle is wrapped. The hose bundle consists of several control lines, some electrical and some hydraulic, that run to the control pods on the subsea blowout preventer. When the driller or other person actuates a BOP control on the rig at the surface, the control signal goes through the hose bundle to the control pod on the BOP stack.

n: a device used on floating offshore drilling rigs to provide a way to actuate and control subsea blowout preventers from the rig. Hydraulic lines from the rig enter the pods, through which fluid is sent toward the preventer. Usually two pods, one yellow and one blue, are used, each to safeguard and back up the other. Also called blue pod, yellow pod.
