The well test equipment package includes a large range of equipment, including surface test trees, surface safety valve, sand filter/de-sander units, flow manifolds, separator, heat exchanger.
This equipment has gate valves and in some cases plug valves. The very nature of testing the well generates some very challenging flow conditions, at high pressures and with solids such as sand.
The valves require optimum protection for these operations, and it’s important the test tree valves can deliver full sealing integrity in order to obtain accurate pressure gradient data on the well. Equally, the sustained functionality of the surface safety valve is paramount.
The gate valves installed in sand filter/de-sander units are subjected to severe service conditions, and valve failures due to sand ingress is a regular problem. RS Clare valve lubricants have been field proven to deliver exceptional performance in such aggressive flow conditions, and with their ability to remain in the valve cavity, create an effective block to the ingress of solids into the valve cavity, which can be very detrimental to valve function.
