Benefits:
Description:
Fike Hydraulic Tubing Drains provide a positive method to equalize the fluid level in tubing strings, without mechanical manipulation. The rupture disc assembly contains a 7/8" opening area. Appropriate production practices include the Fike Hydraulic Tubing Drain as standard equipment in all wells to eliminate the potential hazards associated with pulling wet tubing strings.
Material:
Typical Applications:
Operation:
The Fike HTD is simple in design and utilizes applied hydraulic pressure to rupture the membrane which opens the fluid port to the casing annulus, with no restrictions. The Fike HTD should be installed box up and pin down at the desired depth in the tubing string. For hydrostatic head at the drain, and determination of the proper disc pressure (psi), multiply .433 psi/ft by the drain depth. Then select the disc with an additional 2,000 psi above the nominal fluid load.
(Note:Disc selection is calculated from pressure differential. Contact Fike or your local Sales Representative for further assistance.)
Service:
The Fike HTD is best serviced by your local distributor to ensure proper disc preparation, assembly and testing. In applications where this is not possible, the Fike HTD can be field serviced, with moderate care, and attention to detail.
