APPLICATION:
- On vertical or horizontal wells using heat to enhance oil production.
- Where unwanted steam or water breakthrough may occur
- Where well head choking at surface is required to control breakthrough of steam/water down hole.
FEATURES:
- Automatic shifting of down hole nozzles/ports to deliberately divert the flow of fluids or gases.
- Manual shifting of down hole tools from surface not required.
- Automatic down hole tool shifting is heat sensitive.
- The HSD is pre-designed to either open or close ports at a set temperature.
BENEFITS:
- Can reduce the chances of steam breakthrough or channeling on SAGD wells.
- Can reduce the chances of water production
- All automatic. No down hole tool manipulation required from surface.
- No choking of well production at surface. Increased production.
