WRDP-2

Slickline-retrievable subsurface safety valves

minus

General service, self-equalizing, rod-piston flapper valves

The WRDP-2 is a slickline-retrievable, hydraulically actuated, tubing-pressure sensitive, standard spring subsurface safety valve. It is suitable for a range of subsurface environments, including both production and injection wells and various wellbore fluids—oil, gas, and water. The rod-piston actuator uses premium dynamic seals and is combined with the rugged flapper-and-seat closure mechanism to provide a long-term reliable solution.

The valve is normally supplied with a fit-for-purpose lock that enables proper location in the completion. The WRDP-2 can be used as the primary safety valve by placing it into a hydraulic communication nipple. Alternatively, it can be used as a contingency measure by placing it in a locked-open, tubing-mounted safety valve that is no longer operable.

Working pressures up to 7,500 psi [52 MPa]
Operating temperatures 40 to 300 degF [4 to 149 degC]
Setting depths up to 2,500 ft [762 m]
