Abstract:
Pressure losses occur in restriction, especially in the Subsurface Safety Valve (SSSV) might not be major but can be significant in some wells. As we could not always predict the behavior of the dynamic entity such as the reservoir and the flow of fluid, the production system could exceeds the expected performance, which then could affect the SSSV. Therefore, a proper management of SSSV could help overcome this problem. This project attempts to develop a numerical model which could predict the pressure drops in the SSSV in single and two-phase, subcritical flow as a part of the SSSV proper management program. The project also had done several sensitivities analysis on the parameters that could affect the pressure drops in SSSV which are presented in this paper. The knowledge on the parameters affecting the pressure drop can be used in designing an efficient and optimized SSSV. It is also hope that a proper and dynamic control over the SSSV could be achieved by using this model.

Key words:  Pressure drops, sensitivity analysis, subcritical flow, subsurface safety valve, , ,
