ValveCommander

Improve multiwell fracturing efficiency with valve automation

Increase the number of stages completed per day with ValveCommander™ fluid delivery control. The digital platform streamlines the process of operating frac valves during multiwell fracturing operations, such as zipper fracs.

Accurate valve operation, digital control

Standard workflows for these operations require wireline and fracturing crews to constantly alternate operations between wells to isolate the well and rig up wireline or open the well to begin pumping fluids downhole. During these complicated operations, valves must be opened and closed accurately and in proper sequence. Operating the wrong valve at the wrong time can have catastrophic consequences in terms of NPT, costs, and HSE impacts.

With ValveCommander fluid delivery control software, operators can digitally control frac valves with the click of a button. They can also monitor valve positions in real time, throughout the operation. These changes make the process of opening and closing valves nearly instantaneous.

• Multiwell zipper fracturing

To mitigate the risk of losing control of the well by operating the wrong valve, a standard workflow is embedded in the software and user interface. It includes an advisor to ensure that the workflow is executed according to the job plan.

• Position indication on all valves for verified status
• Pressure transducers and built-in equalization safety interlocks
• Full pad visibility through digitalized customizable workflows and advisors, including for simul-frac and continuous pumping operations
• Automated valve sequencing with configurable valve actuation timeout alert
• Zipper and trunkline manifold interlocks
• Wireline sensors histogram and interlock
• Digital handshake
