Summary Petrobras provided a damaged section of umbilical line to test the ability of Seal-Tite® to cure umbilical leaks using Seal-Tite's pressure activated sealant. Using procedures identical to procedures used in the field, the Seal-Tite® engineer was able to cure each simulated leak. The Seal-Tite® seal was able to hold constant pressure at the maximum [...]
Summary Petrobras personnel created simulated severe leaks in both wireline and tubing retrievable subsurface safety valves to test the ability of Seal-Tite® to cure the leaks using Seal-Tite's pressure activated sealant. Using procedures identical to procedures used in the field, the Seal-Tite® engineer was able to cure each simulated leak. Videos of the tests are [...]
