The eMotion®-HS valve is a computer-controlled, gas-tight (V0 rated) circulating valve that can be repeatedly opened or closed by remote command. No surface connections or interventions are required to communicate with or operate the valve. Permanently deployed above the production packer as part of the tubing string, the eMotion-HS valve controls the flow of well fluids between the tubing and annulus without the need for any interventions or surface control lines - saving rig-time, costs and helping to reduce risk.
The eMotion-HS valve is an integrated assembly of two existing devices. The first is the eMotion® electronic control unit. This is used to provide surface communication and the motive force to operate the second device – a Halliburton HS-ICV circulating valve. The assembly has integrated pressure and temperature sensors which it uses to monitor the well conditions and is pre-programmed to either open or close whenever a specified condition (known as a trigger) is detected. The triggers use a variety of well parameters including ambient pressure, temperature, time or surface applied pressure. Each time a trigger is detected the valve will either open or close as per its instructions. This process can be repeated time-and-time again without the need for any form of intervention or any control lines to surface.
Halliburton eMotion valves provide interventionless remote control of hydraulically actuated completion equipment, eliminating multiple wireline runs.
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.
