Suitable for both thermal and cold recovery of heavy oil
The FC fast-connect HT wellhead system is a compact system designed for high-temperature applications, such as thermal recovery of heavy oil. It offers an alternative to conventional wellhead systems and can also be used for cold production methods. It reduces HSE risk because most of its components are installed through the BOP stack, reducing installation time and minimizing rig time.
Advantages
-Horizontal production permits full drift capabilities during workover without having to dismantle the Christmas tree assembly.
-Casing head and tubing spool feature other end connectors (OECs), which meet API 6A standards.
-All connections are threaded; unlike conventional installations, there is no need to cut, bevel, or weld
Segmented landing base with holes enables the operator to observe returns or perform top job cementing
Wellhead is ideal for drilling wells in stages in clusters or pads, using an internally threaded plug to ensure well control while the drilling rig moves off location.
-Wellhead enables casing expansion (up to 2 ft) in thermal applications without restricting flow while accommodating wellhead axial and radial stress conditions.
-Threaded flange enables quick and easy alignment of the wellhead system with steam lines, flow lines, or both.
-Temperature range is 0 to 650 degF, and the maximum working pressure is 3,000 psi.
-System accommodates casing program of 13 3/8 in, 9 5/8 in, 5 1/2 in.
-Wellhead system eliminates time spent waiting on cement
