摘要:
An annular safety valve sealing package that is suitable for use in the presence of an acid gas and that is capable of retaining its material properties when the annular safety valve is retrieved is provided. The annular safety valve sealing package includes an annular safety valve having a tubular housing, a first annular sealing element including a first elastomeric material and disposed about the tubular housing, a second annular sealing element including a second elastomeric material and disposed about the tubular housing, and a third annular sealing element including a third elastomeric material and disposed about the tubular housing on an opposite side of the second annular sealing element from the first annular sealing element. At least two of the first elastomeric material, the second elastomeric material, or the third elastomeric material have different compositions.
摘要:
A ball valve comprising a housing comprising a fluid passage, a first seat surface, a second seat surface, and a ball rotatably movable within the housing between an open position allowing flow through the fluid passage of the housing and a closed position preventing flow through the fluid passage of the housing, wherein the ball contacts the first seat surface and the second seat surface to form one or more seals within the ball valve, wherein the ball comprises a fluid passage and a fluid path, wherein the fluid path fluidly connects a space between the first seat surface and the second seat surface with the fluid passage of the housing, with the fluid passage of the ball, or both, when the ball is in the open position.
