Narrative:
During descent from FL370, I noticed right bleed trip. Advised captain (PNF). He advised that the left bleed also tripped and called oxygen mask on at which time I donned oxygen mask. I continued descent to 10000 ft during which time the appropriate checklists and emergency procedures were completed. No injury reported or far's violated.
