Completion Barrier Valve.

The Completion Barrier Valve is run in hole as part of the production tubing, providing a pressure barrier and preventing well fluids from entering the production tubing.

It enables the operator to run and test the completion equipment above the barrier and also set a hydraulic packer without the need of intervention. Having set the packer and tested the string, the valve can then be opened to allow production.

The Completion Barrier Valve is run in hole in the closed position and after a pre-determined time or when a pre-determined pressure signal is received, an actuator is triggered. This allows tubing pressure to shift a sleeve, which then opens the flapper leaving a smooth uninterrupted flow path through the tool. The tool incorporates a metered piston to ensure a slow, smooth activation. A rupture disc is also included in the design so that the electronics can be by passed if required. As a final safety measure a mechanical override can be employed via intervention techniques.

Features

• Barrier Valve is positively locked in open position after operation.
• Alternative contingencies of a rupture disc and mechanical over-ride are built in.
• Standard field proven Omega electronics.
• Time delay adjustable in the field.
• 5,000 psi differential rating above and below.
• Large, unobstructed bore when opened.

• Can be run where a remotely operated pressure barrier or fluid loss control device is required.
• Setting of hydraulic packers or liner hangers.

• Cost effective as the barrier valve is opened without intervention.
• Activates without the requirement of “pressure cycling”.

*If Timer is activated at surface.
