The Sliding Sleeve is used as an in-tubing opening & closing device, which when open, allows flow between the completion tubing and the annular area. It is designed with a ‘KX’ or 'KR' Landing Nipple profile in the Top Sub. It incorporates Packing Bores in both the Top and Bottom Sub and with Premium Elastomer V-Seal packing stacks.
The Sliding Sleeve is designed with full tubing flow through the Nipple and the Sleeve.
The Landing Nipple profile built in the Top Sub and the Packing Bores in the Top and Bottom Sub allow a Lock Mandrel carrying a variety of Subsurface Flow Controls, or a plugging device to be set across or below the ‘SSD’ Sliding Sleeve. This can be done by standard wireline methods.
The Sliding Sleeve is designed, when open, may be used to circulate heavy completion fluids out of the tubing, to acidize formations, to allow pressure tests to Packers and selectively produce well zones.
This Sliding Sleeve can be opened or closed by using a ‘42BO’ or 142BO’ type Shifting Tool.
Note: The Sliding Sleeve is designed to ‘OPEN’ or ‘CLOSE’ with one wireline trip.
