Advancing Well Integrity: Global Applications of Subsurface Barrier Valves in Deepwater Operations

Key Points

Operational efficiency improves significantly through the use of subsurface barrier valves, especially in deepwater operations.
Data from over 3,000 runs in various regions demonstrates the reliability of barrier solutions during suspension phases.
Adoption of advanced SBV-3 technology indicates enhanced performance in compliance with regulatory standards.
Findings support the global application of barrier solutions, addressing industry needs for improved safety.

Abstract

Abstract The complexity of modern deepwater developments demands high-reliability downhole barrier solutions that safeguard well integrity during completion, suspension, and production phases. This paper presents the evolution, field-proven performance, and global deployment of Subsurface Barrier Valve (SBV) technology, particularly the latest SBV-3 generation. Drawing from field data across over 3,000 runs, including major deployments in Indonesia, West Africa, and the Gulf of Mexico, the paper demonstrates how subsurface barrier valves enhance operational efficiency, minimize risk, meet and exceed stringent regulatory standards such as API 19V/ISO 28781.
