The Surface Safety Valve (SSV) is used to

shut in the well ow upstream of the choke
manifold in case of an emergency.
SSVs are operated by the Emergency
Shutdown (ESD) system. The ESD system
enables eld operators to shut down the
well ow from remote points during testing
operations. Shutdown is achieved by
releasing pneumatic pressure from the ESD
loop which in turn releases pressure from the
SSV actuator. The actuator has a fail close
conguration. The SSV will close once the
pressure is released from the actuator.
The SSV is equipped with a transportation
frame with pad eyes for ease of shipping to
offshore/onshore installations.
