Electro-hydraulic system enables up to 12 zones with only three control lines
Talk to an expertThe Halliburton SmartPlex® II downhole control system is an electro-hydraulic multi-drop system that provides simple and reliable zonal control of multiple valves in a single wellbore with a minimum number of control lines. The SmartPlex II downhole control system uses two hydraulic and one electric line from the surface to selectively actuate up to 12 downhole flow-control devices, such as interval control valves (ICVs), from a remote location. This eliminates the need for multiple tubing hanger penetrations and helps reduce operational complexity and risk.
The SmartPlex II downhole control system can be used to control any hydraulic, surface-controlled, flow-control device in the field-proven Halliburton portfolio.
The SmartPlex II downhole control system is applicable for any dry-tree multizone completion that requires more than two valves. Compared to the direct hydraulics system, the SmartPlex II system not only helps reduce overall intelligent completion costs, but it also decreases complexity because fewer control lines are required.
The system is ideally suited for long, horizontal, compartmentalized completions (cased or openhole) where selective control of each interval is desired. Typically, this can be advantageous for high-rate multizone water injection, selective stimulation control in tight gas applications, or in combination with a choking ICV for drawdown optimization in production applications.
Next-generation electro-hydraulic control system delivers fast, precise, bidirectional choke control and manages up to 12 ICVs using only three control lines
The direct hydraulics downhole control system uses direct hydraulic control lines from the surface to remotely actuate downhole flow control devices.
The Accu-Pulse™ module enables incremental opening of a multi-position ICV to control produced or injected fluid rates for enhanced reservoir management.
The debris-tolerant HS interval control valve (HS-ICV) enables deployment of Halliburton SmartWell® systems in high-pressure, deepwater environments.
Halliburton SmartWell® completion systems allow you to collect, transmit, and analyze completion, production, and reservoir data and control and monitor selected reservoir zones remotely and in real-time.
Halliburton intelligent flow control systems provide a method to integrate manual or automated surface control systems with downhole SmartWell® completion equipment.
