Product Sheet AFIV Annulus-Controlled Shrouded Isolation Valve
Separate production from the upper and lower zones and protect formations from fluid loss and damaging fluids.
Annulus-controlled shrouded isolation valve
The Trip Saver one-time remote-opening mechanism enables one-time opening of the valve using cycles of tubing pressure without conventional intervention techniques. Before the Trip Saver mechanism is actuated, the AFIV valve can be opened and closed mechanically multiple times with a shifting tool run on the end of washpipe, a perforating string, or coiled tubing. In addition, the ReSOLVE instrumented wireline intervention service features shifting tools that can be used to open and close the valve. The service provides real-time monitoring, dynamic tool control, and verified downhole actuation.
All AFIV valves are qualified and tested at assembly to meet stringent acceptance criteria, enabling their use for well suspension and temporary abandonment operations before the Trip Saver mechanism is activated.
