摘要: A gas lift system for oil and gas wells has a gas pump. The gas pump comprises production tubing, a chamber, a dip tube, check valves, a gas supply line and control valve, a gas vent line and control valve, and a fluid control line. Liquid is pumped to the surface by allowing it to collect in the chamber and then forcing it out of the chamber with high-pressure gas. The gas supply and vent valves preferably are controlled by a single pressure control line. The system preferably included retrievable valves that may be installed through the production tubing to provide a life-of-the-well gas lift system.

摘要: A rotatable flanged component is adapted for assembly into a flow line of a high-pressure fluid transportation system. The rotatable flanged component comprises a body and a conduit. The body has at least two ends. The conduit extends between the ends. The rotatable component also has a flange and a union face at each of the ends. The flanges and union faces are adapted to provide a flange union between the component and other flowline components at each the body end. At least one of the flanges is a rotatable flange. The rotatable flange has a central opening and a plurality of holes. The holes are adapted to accommodate threaded connectors for loading the flange with an axial force. The flange is mounted on the body end through the central opening for rotation and for transmission of the axial force to the body end.

摘要: Pressure relief valves may be tapped into high-pressure flow lines. The pressure relief valve is normally shut and is adapted to open at a threshold fluid pressure. It comprises a body, a passage, a valve seat, a ball, and a linear actuator. The passage is defined in the body and has a valve inlet and a valve outlet. The valve seat is in the passage. The ball is adapted to engage the valve seat to block flow through the passage. The linear actuator is mounted for linear movement in response to detection of the threshold pressure a from a normally extended position to a retracted position. In the extended position the ball engages the valve seat to close the passage, thereby shutting the valve. In the retracted position the ball can be flushed out of the valve by fluid flowing through the passage, thereby opening the valve.

摘要: Missile flow lines are incorporated into frac manifolds, especially trailered or skidded frac manifolds. The missiles manifold the discharge from a plurality of pumps and comprise at least two junction fittings joined by spooled pipe. The junction fittings comprise a body having a primary bore and at least two feed bores. The intersections of the feed bores with the primary bore are offset axially from each other along the primary bore. The junction fittings are joined by flange unions to at least one spooled pipe such that the junction fittings and spooled pipe form a conduit including the primary bores. A discharge line from a pump may be joined to each feed union face of the junction fittings by a flange union. Thus, the discharge from the pumps may be manifolded into the conduit.

摘要: Swing valves have a passage and a sleeve. The passage has a receptacle, and the sleeve is pressure fitted into the receptacle. The sleeve is adapted to conduct flow through the valve and comprises a first end, a second end, and a valve seat. The first end of the sleeve is pressure fitted into the receptacle. The second end projects out of the receptacle. The valve seat is on the face of the second sleeve end. The second sleeve end also is adapted to couple with a sleeve cap extending over and across the second sleeve end to shut off flow through the sleeve.

摘要: A gas control valve has a valve housing, a gas flowpath, a piston, a valve seat, a valve body, an actuating chamber, and a stack of Belleville washers. The valve housing has a gas inlet, a gas outlet, and a control fluid inlet. The gas flowpath runs from the gas inlet to the gas outlet. The piston reciprocates away from and towards a normal position. The valve body is coupled to the piston and is adapted to selectively seat on the valve seat to open and shut the gas flowpath. The actuating chamber communicates with the control fluid inlet. The washer stack is under compression to bias the piston in the normal position. The piston is responsive to fluid pressure in the actuating chamber and the washer stack so that the valve may be selectively opened and closed by sequentially increasing and decreasing pressure in the actuating chamber.

The missile comprises at least two junction fittings joined by a flange union to at least one spooled pipe to form a conduit. The junction fittings comprise a fitting body having a primary bore and at least two feed bores. The primary bore extends axially through the body between primary union faces adapted for connection to a flowline component by a flange union. The feed bores extend radially through the body from a feed union face to an intersection with the primary bore. The feed union faces are adapted for connection to pump discharge lines by a flange union. The intersections of the feed bores with the primary bore are offset axially from each other along the primary bore.

摘要: Missiles for frac manifolds manifold the discharge from a plurality of pumps. The missile comprises a missile body and inlet assemblies. The missile body has a straight primary bore and a plurality of feed bores. The primary bore extends axially through the missile body. The feed bores extend radially through the missile body and define a socket. An inlet assembly is associated with each feed bore. The inlet assembly comprises a nipple and a collar. The nipple has a bore extending axially between a spigot and a union end. The nipple is connected to the collar. The spigot is received in the socket of the feed bore. The union end is adapted for connection to a flowline component. The collar comprises mating parts releasably coupled together around the missile body. The nipple is thereby releasably coupled to the missile body by coupling the collar to the missile body.

摘要: Pressure relief valves may be tapped into flow lines. The pressure relief valves are normally shut and are adapted to open at a threshold pressure in the flow line. The valves comprise a body which is adapted to allow the valve to be tapped into the flow line. A passage is defined in the body. The passage provides a valve inlet and a valve outlet. The inlet is in fluid communication with the flow line. A sacrificial closure is disposed in the passage and blocks flow through the passage. The closure is exposed to fluid pressure in the flow line. The valve also comprises means for compromising the sacrificial closure in response to detection of the threshold pressure in the flow line. The integrity of the closure will be compromised such that fluid from the flow line may flow through the passage and out the valve outlet.
