Technology Innovations

The main unique technological developments created by VP for the industry are:

HYDRO SELECTIVE SYSTEM VP-HSS

  • The patented valve VP-HSS of Válvulas del Pacífico is an innovation that provides the opportunity to select the arenas of production of which is required extract oil or gas. Likewise, it not only allows extracting the production of independently but also have commingled production. Thank you due to the patented internal mechanism commingled production occurs without crossflow even when the pressures of each zone present a high contrast.

  • The patented VP-HSS valve provides the option to select between 2 production zones without having to remove the termination of the artificial lift installed in the well. without having the need for addition reconditioning work or prolonged production stoppages to change production areas. In addition, this design allows the zones to be closed again and polished at the convenience of the operator.

MULTIBOWL WELLHEAD

  • The patented system allows changing the completion of the head, keeping the section A and B already installed, without making any modifications. Our Multibowl system is installed with only two multi-use running tools, resulting in a faster and time saving operation. The use of slip-lock system is a great advantage eliminating the use of welding personnel, safety personnel and associated equipment required with the welding process.

HYDRAULIC TENSION ADAPTER HTA

  • Takes variance out of Flange Connections Hydraulic Tension Adapter replaces hand tools to makes uniform flange connections, improve safety. VP a recognized leader for providing innovated products to the Oil and Gas industry developed the HTA a safe quicker and easier way to bolt flanges together without the use of hammer-pneumatic and torque wrenches and reduce the time and personnel needed to make flange-flange connections.

VACCUM SAND CLEANER

  • It is a device, which is used to remove sand or debris from the bottom of the hole when it is impossible to move. In operation, it opens an atmospheric chamber within the tool to create a surge of fluids in the camera. The waste is then kept inside the chamber for your surface recovery. It works with a minimum pressure differential of 1800 psi.

MANDREL CASING HANGER & PACK OFF

  • VP Successfully developed a new technology for Multibowl Wellheads with US registered patent. The 9-5/8" Mandrel Casing Hanger Running Toll allows setting and cementing operations to have the same versatility as a standard right-hand, slip-through threaded connection through the BOP. These advantages increase the odds of success in cementing such as being able to lower the string to the planned depth while still having the versatility of the Multibowl system or having to resort to traditional wedge systems.

SUPPORTING CENTRALIZER

  • The Technical advantages of the Centralizer system VP-Centralizer offer operational improvements. No welding is required for its installation. The Centralizer system only requires activation of seals and adjustment of jaws. By having energizable seals for the installations of the system, it dos not require a fine grinding of the 20" Casing and they enter the annular control without difficulty.

FLUSHRINGS VP-RINGS

  • VP-Frings are an innovative design patented by Válvulas del Pacífico S.A. Destined to fill the J space that exists between the pipe pins within the couplings. The design meets API 5B standard. By using this Flushrings, the standard pipe is revalued, comparing its functionality to pipes with Premium threads but at a significantly lower cost. The cost of premium threads take into consideration the carving of the same in the tubing. It also requires computerized torque to avoid damage to these in the installation phase; meanwhile, the VP-Flushrings do not require special torque and protect that there is no excess torque in the tubing string.

TUBING CHECK VALVE STAINLESS STEEL VP-TCV

  • The VP-TCV developed by Válvulas del Pacífico aims to provide a greater reliability in its closing mechanism and work compared to systems standard that can be found in the industry.

  • The seal system unique patented by Válvulas del Pacífico allows the closing mechanism to work in any inclination. That is, the entire range is covered from 0º to 90º. This type of mechanism provides the assurance that the closure is produced immediately when the pressure differential exists. This does not occur in standard systems which depend not only on differential pressure but also on a circulation strong enough to achieve smash the ball on the seat. This generates fluid return and reverse turns in electric submersible pumps.

Applications

Válvulas del Pacífico has identified the urgent need to adapt and integrate new technologies with products. Their R&D engineers and project managers provide efficient and cost-effective solutions based on each customer's unique requirements.

Customer trends drive higher levels of personalization. Therefore, VDP's in-depth industry knowledge is always at the forefront as the main strategic product development and engineering partner for the oil industry.

One of the main problems they identified in the industry is the lack of savings in time and cost in the installation and operation of wellheads. With their patented systems, these problems are reduced, giving more confidence to the client and increasing production. In addition, the ability to select the sands and produce in commingled is another problem that we identified and found a solution.
