Detailed Description

The WI retrievable injection valve is a high-performance, high-flow rate injection valve. High throughput is achieved by a unique valve configuration that minimizes turbulent and potentially erosive flow. Operation is not dependent on a specific flow rate, pressure, or setting depth, thus negating the need for adjustment over time. The valve incorporates a metal-to-metal valve and seat energized by the combination of an integral spring and well pressure acting from below. The WI injection valve can be deployed on a wireline lock or through-tubing pack-off device, providing flexibility not available with alternative injection valve systems. As a result of the simple design with fewer parts, redress and repair costs are considerably lower than those for other injection valve systems. Applications The WI injection valve is primarily used in water injection applications as an alternative to conventional tubing or wireline-set safety valves. The valve is also commonly used as a retrofit solution in water injectors in which a tubing to annulus leak has occurred. The valve can be deployed below the leak point to eliminate uncontrolled annulus pressure increases when the injection stops.
