ShearLift A - shear open GLV

Value proposition

When completing new gas lift wells the standard practice is often to install dummy valves in all side pocket mandrels. These dummy valves provide a barrier between the annulus and the tubing during the well completion phase. Before the wells can start producing, the dummy valves need to be replaced with gas lift valves. These intervention operations are often time consuming and costly.

PTC’s ShearLift-A™ annuls pressure activated gas lift operating valves, are accredited to the most extreme barrier and erosion testing requirements. ShearLift-A's unique design eliminates the need to run a dummy valve, thus saving significant time during well completion or commissioning. The product family has an excellent track record since its introduction in 2009.
