Custom Equalizer Springs

EQUALIZER SPRINGS

Once a newly drilled wellbore starts producing, pressure changes can cause unwanted media to overtake the oil. These breakthroughs increase waste and reduce profit margins, so pressure-regulating inflow control devices are critical for many oilfield environments.

Since ICDs utilize one or more valves to control wellbore flow, their performance hinges upon spring components. Custom Spring Manufacturing specializes in developing high-quality equalizer springs that oilfield manufacturers can leverage to achieve optimal ICD functionality.

Importance of Springs to ICDs

ICDs, both passive and autonomous, are hardware deployed as part of a well completions package aimed at evenly distributing inflows. By optimizing fluid and gas movement through the wellbore, these tools:

• Increase Production Rates
• Reduce Unwanted Water And Gas Production
• Prevent Sand Production
• Solve Drawdown Problems
• Extend Well Lifespans

These devices utilize valves to restrict inflows, thereby adjusting wellbore pressure distribution. The key to valve operation is an equalizer spring, which ensures that optimal pressure is applied.

Improper equalizer spring design may lead to valve bounce, a phenomenon known to cause subpar performance or complete failure of a valve. This can result in imbalanced well pressure and hurt oil production.

That’s why ICD and AICD manufacturers should get equalizer springs from Custom Spring Manufacturing. We’ve years of experience designing springs that excel in extreme downhole conditions.

How Do Equalizer Springs Work?

Equalizer springs support ICD operation by determining a system’s fundamental fluid flow properties. They’re engineered to maintain uniform inflow to the fluid collection system, regardless of the fluid’s viscosity.

By adjusting equalizer spring tension, an ICD can regulate flow rates. This makes sure the collection process is both consistent and controlled.
