Now available: Our new WellProtek® Ultra annular design that significantly increases high temperature sealing performance compared to an industry-standard design.
The Ultra utilizes an innovative insert design and proprietary FOGT elastomer to enhance the performance of the packing unit in elevated temperatures. It is compatible with standard annular style BOP units in oil & gas and geothermal drilling applications.
WellProtek® is FO>'s line of API-16A licensed annular packing units. All units are Factory Acceptance Tested (FAT) before shipment, stamped with the official API Monogram® and shipped with full documentation in compliance with API-16A requirements.
Our WellProtek® units utilize proprietary elastomers, products of FO>'s material development and engineering expertise. Through extensive testing, our compounds show superior durability and performance.
Our commitment and dedication to develop market leading technologies, supported with in-house product validation testing, is featured with the successful introduction of the WellProtek® API-16A licensed and 16AR compliant annular packing units.
What separates us from our competitors?
Test Performed | Test Description | |
---|---|---|
✓
|
Factory Acceptance Testing | The Factory Acceptance Test includes testing on pipe to low (200-300 psi) and high (5000 psi) wellbore pressure, Complete Shut-off (CSO) test to 2500 psi wellbore pressure and drift testing within 30 minutes. |
✓
|
Temperature Testing | Verifies the performance of non-metallic seals and molded sealing assemblies used as pressure-controlling and/or pressure-containing during exposure to low (40°F) and high (350°F) temperatures |
✓
|
Fatigue Testing | Simulates closing and opening the blowout preventer once per day and wellbore pressure testing at 200 psi to 300 psi and full rated working pressure once per week, for one year of service. Target 52 API cycles (7 open/close cycles = 1 API cycle) |
✓
|
Sealing Characteristics Testing | This test determines the piston closing pressure necessary to maintain a seal as a function of wellbore pressures up to full rated working pressure of the blowout preventer. |
✓
|
Stripping Life Testing | Determines the ability of the annular packing unit to maintain control of wellbore pressure while stripping drill pipe and tool joints through the closed packing unit without exceeding a leak rate of 4 liters/min. (1gal/min). |
✓ |
Continuous Operation Temperature Testing | This test determines the ability of the annular packing unit to maintain a wellbore pressure seal after repeated closings and openings at the continuous elevated rated temperature and rated working pressure. |
*All qualification tests are performed following API-16A industry test procedures and qualification requirements.
**With the exception of stripping test, the acceptance criterion for all tests to verify pressure integrity was zero visible leakage.
