Wireline Retrievable DHSV SwellStack

Page last modified
May 22 2023

Downhole safety valves become corroded or damaged due to wireline activity. Standard chevron stacks in insert valves are unable to effectively seal in this damage and result in a leak path for hydrocarbons to migrate up the control line.

SwellStack, a swellable sealing solution with multiple chevron seals, is installed in place of an existing chevron stack.

This patented technology regains well integrity, effectively providing a seal of 10,000psi in liquid and gas.

Maximum reliability for severely damaged and corroded seal bores
Maintains well integrity
Removes requirement for DHSV straddles and potential workovers

Cost-effective solution
Custom-designed to suit customer requirements
Hybrid swellable compound is currently not available
