Restoring Valve Integrity On A Number Of Different OEM Valves – Qatar Petroleum, Dukhan Field
The Problem
A Senior Wellhead Supervisor at Qatar Petroleum engaged with RS Clare as they had been experiencing some issues with valve integrity and decided to explore the options of using a higher grade grease. A campaign was set up to trial Valve Lubricant 601TM in multiple valves across several locations with the aim of sealing any leaks they were experiencing.
The Solution
The results of the trial was a 100% success rate (14 out of 14 wells) with the application of Valve lubricant 601TM. This meant major cost savings as they no longer had to replace costly Xmas tree valves. The product was applied on wellhead and Xmas tree brands such as Cameron, Wood Group and FMC, on a variety of operational trees including oil producers, powered water injectors, gas injectors and gas producing wells. This demonstrates the wide versatility in terms of OEM valve manufacturers and types of operations that are all suited to Valve Lubricant 601TM.
Customer Feedback
“We were able to avoid the costly xmas tree replacement and the NPT of these wells were reduced by switching to Valve Lubricant 601TM.”
Senior Well Head Supervisor, Qatar Petroleum.
