SEAL TECHNOLOGY
Seals
Conventional O-ring elastomer seals
no longer meet the industrys stringent
design and safety criteria. FMC Surface
Wellhead has developed seals that
compensate for thermal expansion
and contraction, and the larger API
casing and tubing tolerances that
create increasingly difficult sealing
conditions. At the same time, weve
developed proprietary new elastomers
suited to the design parameters of
the new FMC Surface Wellhead seals,
providing the best combination of
mechanical properties and chemical
resistance. We design and manufacture our elastomer seals.

Metal-to-Metal
Seals
Our oilfield customers look to metal
seals as cost-effective technology for
extending service life and improving
production efficiency. In general, metal
seals last longer and provide more
reliable service, especially in critical
applications. FMC Surface Wellheads
patented bump metal seal is
regarded as the technological breakthrough in metal seals for wellheads.
We manufacture both self-energized,
straight-bore, metal seals and
externally energized seals.

CAPABILITIES
FMC Surface Wellhead was born on land and migrated to the sea. As FMC Energy Systems grew and expanded, the
organization was restructured to concentrate like technologies and services into nine highly specialized operating units, including FMC Surface Wellhead. Our sister enterprise, FMC Kongsberg Subsea, which is number one in its global market, grew
partly out of the original FMC/OCT wellhead technological group.
Today, FMC Surface Wellhead and other FMC Energy Systems operations and their customers benefit from the technology
advances developed by FMCs Energy Systems subsea unit, developing drilling and completion systems for seabed wells,
the most hostile of environments for oil and gas production. A notable example, our C22-EG Casing Spool. Its bowl protector
retaining subsea technology doesnt need costly lockdown screws, increasing safety by eliminating the need to work under
BOP and potential leak path.

SD-1 mudline system has been designed
to save time in assembly and disassembly of this unique drilling tool. The major
time savings occur when the well is
being abandoned. Access to the hanger
and packoff/support bushing can be
achieved by nippling down the connection at the casing head and lifting the
OBS system as a single unit.

Since our days as O-C-T, weve led the industry in solutions that save rig time and enhance the safety of your operation. Both
those aspects were taken into account when we developed our Diverter Attachment wellhead product offering.
One of the inherent dangers of the industry is working under the Diverter/BOP stack when it is being installed or
removed. The features we have incorporated in our Diverter Attachment Assemblies greatly minimize the amount of time one
is required to spend on the wellhead deck during these operations.
Time savings were also a strong consideration taken into account during the development of our Diverter Attachment
assemblies. Depending on which design best fits your application, we have incorporated such features as no requirement
to wait on cement to set, elimination of hot work, ability to land multiple casing strings without nippling down and the
speed associated with the installation and removal of the Slip Loc and Speedloc quick connections. Depending on which
design is selected, the operator could achieve between 6 and 36 hours of rig time-savings.
S l i p L o c B o t t o m w i t h 2 - S t e p We l l h e a d f o r A t t a c h i n g t o t h e D i v e r t e r A s s e m b l y :
Description
The diverter wellhead assembly attaches to the conductor pipe by the use of the
time-saving Slip Loc connection. The wellhead is provided with two load shoulders
that allow the operator to land and pack off both conductor and surface casing without ever needing to nipple down.
F e a t u re s a n d B e n e f i t s
The wellhead bottom is equipped with a Slip Loc connection and the top with
a Speedloc connection. Both these connections save considerable rig time during installation.
Seals the well bore while drilling out for conductor and surface casing.
If used in conjunction with a mechanical casing cutter, this design eliminates
the need for welding; thus there are no longer the dangers associated with
hot work. Further, adjacent wells do not have to be shut in during installation.
The conductor casing string is landed, packed off and tested prior to cementing.
If it is desired that returns be taken across the shale shaker, a flow loop can be
installed during the cementing operation.
The surface casing is landed on the upper load shoulder with a fluted hanger
for flow by. Once cementing operations are complete, the pack off is run, locked
in place and tested prior to nippling down.
The diverter riser assembly is removed and subsequent wellheads installed
with the use of the Speedloc connection, which is designed to save valuable
rig time.
Available in Slip Loc or butt-weld prep for 30, 26 & 24 drive pipe.

Slip Loc Bottom with contained landing ring with Flanged Top Diverter
Adapter Head:
Description
The Slip Loc diverter adapter/attachment contains a profile for an independent and
inexpensive load shoulder to be contained between the casing and the adapter. After
drilling out and landing the surface casing, the Slip Loc diverter adapter can be
removed and the subsequent casing head attached to the mandrel hanger.
F e a t u re s a n d B e n e f i t s
Seals the well bore while drilling out for surface casing.
The surface hanger is landed on load shoulder. Since the casing is landed, there
is no need to wait further for cement to set up.
Saves rig time associated with welding on a flange to attach the diverter and with
removal of the flange once the surface casing has been landed.
Slip Loc diverter adapter can easily and quickly be removed after landing surface
casing. The adapter can remain attached to the drilling riser system for subsequent wells.
Available in 20 & 13-3/8. Other sizes can be manufactured on request.

F e a t u re s a n d B e n e f i t s
Seals the well bore while drilling out for surface casing.
Surface hanger can be provided with or without annulus seals.
The diverter attachment can be easily and quickly removed by simply backing
out the bolts around the circumference of the attachment, thus saving valuable
rig time.

Description: Slip-type casing hangers provide a method to transfer the weight or tension load
of a casing string to a casing head or spool. Slip-type hangers are available in automatic-sealing
and nonautomatic-sealing varieties. Automatic hangers have seals which are energized by
casing weight, while nonautomatic hangers have seals which require means other than casing
weight to be energized. Nonautomatic hangers are typically used when insufficient casing load
is available or when cementing back to the surface.
Functions
Provides for easy wraparound or split installation at any location on the casing string.
Provides for suspension of the casing load from a casing head or spool.
Provides a means to center the casing string in the head or spool.
Provides an annular seal.

Clamps
Description: To reduce installation time and wellhead equipment size, FMC Surface Wellhead
uses clamp devices in place of flange connections for wellheads. The Speedloc Clamp consists
of a series of segments which are mechanically isolated from one another, permitting each segment to act as an independent clamp. These clamp segments pull the integral mating hubs
together as the nuts are tightened. The contact surface between the segments and the hubs acts
as a ramp to maximize vertical clamping force.
FMC Surface Wellheads integral Speedloc Clamps can be pre-installed on wellheads, BOPs and
other drill-thru components with no rig assembly time required. One person can make up all sizes
of Speedloc Clamps in less than 10 minutes. The increased strength and reliability of Speedloc
Segmented Clamps over two-piece clamps help ensure safety in the field by greatly reducing the
risk of a failure. Other factors inherent in the design of the Speedloc Clamp that help maximize
personnel and rig safety include the elimination of special tools, handling devices and loose parts,
minimizing time and exposure of service personnel in the area of the wellhead.
FMC Surface Wellhead currently offers two versions of the Speedloc design:
Speedloc I:
Proven worldwide, Speedloc Clamps are available in nominal sizes from 7 1/16 to 21 1/4 inches
for standard and sour-gas services to 20,000 psi. They provide distinct mechanical and operational
advantages over alternative connectors, and are ideal for high-temperature applications.
Straight-bore metal seal
Speedloc-I Segmented Clamps use FMC Surface Wellheads patented straight-bore metal seal
(SBMS) rather than the standard API seal (R, RX or BX) found in other wellhead connectors.
The SBMS seal is preloaded radially during assembly as the clamp segments pull the mating hubs
together. Therefore, the Speedloc Clamp does not require further vertical preload to generate
a seal. Sealing integrity is maintained by radial compression of the seal against the machine
surfaces of the seal pocket. Fluctuations in vertical end loads and externally applied bending
moments do not affect the function of the seal.
Speedloc-I Clamps provide high bending moment and shear-resistance capacities, far exceeding conventional two-piece clamps in strength. Under well pressure conditions, the total load is
distributed equally between the Speedloc-I Clamps studs, with only moderate torque required for
full stud preload. The loss of a single Speedloc-I Clamp stud results in only 8.3% drop in clamp
preload, therefore maintaining 91.7% of the installed connectors preload. In contrast, if one stud
fails on a two-piece clamp, failure of the entire clamp could occur.
30
26FMC3(pg20-33)_4.6.04
6/26/04
10:22 AM
Page 14
Speedloc II:
Proven worldwide, Speedloc-II Clamps are available in sizes from 7 1/16 to 21 1/4 inches for standard or sour-gas services to 20,000 psi, 0oF to 250oF, providing mechanical and operational advantages over other connectors.
Superior clamping by design
The Speedloc-II Clamp consists of a series of segments which are mechanically isolated from one
another, permitting each segment to act as an independent clamp. The Speedloc II uses a travel
nut with a retainer bolt to secure the segments onto the hub. When the travel nuts are being
loosened, the retainer bolts keep the nuts and segments together, causing the nuts to positively
retract the segments. The Speedloc-II nut threads are coated to provide a lower coefficient
of friction, reducing make-up torque and dramatically increasing thread life. The result: you get
enhanced clamping and higher end load capacities in a compact, preassembled design with
significant safety advantages.
Mates with conventional clamp hubs
31
Clamps
FMC Surface Wellheads Speedloc-II Clamps mate to conventional clamp hubs using API RX or BX
ring gaskets. The design allows for interface between FMC Surface Wellhead and existing conventional clamp hub equipment. The Speedloc II can also be provided with FMC Surface Wellheads
straight-bore metal seal (SBMS) for special applications.
Speedloc-II Clamps maximize strength by distributing total load equally between the clamps
studs, with only moderate torque required for full preload. Speedloc-II Clamps typically have 12 or
16 studs, depending on the size, versus two or four studs in conventional clamps. As a result,
the Speedloc IIs studs are smaller in diameter for the same load-bearing capacity, and require
significantly less torque for installation.

Simple o Critical
While no two completion situations and conditions are quite the same, in general, reservoir characteristics and well fluid analyses drive the design of a surface control system whether a basic
system or the most challenging completions for critical service.
Your FMC Surface Wellhead sales/technical representative adds value by recommending the
right completion equipment for your unique situation. In this process, we consider the economics
of your well, the performance/risk factors of your application and the support services available for
your well locations.
To introduce our catalog of completion solutions components and systems, the following examples illustrate a progression of completion models from basic to critical service.

TC-ET
The TC-ET tubing head has one aligning pin and accepts all TC-Series tubing hangers and packoffs
except the TC-60 dual-split hanger. It can be upgraded to a TC-60-ET by adding two aligning pins
at an FMC Energy Systems facility.
The TC-60-ET is the most versatile tubing head in the oilfield. It has three aligning pins and is
compatible with all TC-Series tubing hangers and packoffs, including the TC-60 dual-split hanger.
When last-minute completion changes are possible, the T-60-ET is a good investment because
no shop modification is needed to adapt it to any type of tubing completion.
TC-WD-ET
The TC-WD-ET tubing head has an internal wedge that is used for alignment on specific TC-Series
tubing hangers. This particular design allows for alignment of multiple-string tubing hangers without
external manipulation methods. TC-WD-ET tubing hangers are generally considered specific to
particular customers requirements and can be run only in the TC-WD-ET tubing head. FMC hangers
that normally are aligned with pins (TC or TC-60 type) will not function in the TC-WD-ET head.

Bottom Connections
Bolt-through flange, studded flange and clamp-hub connections are available. The type and pressure
rating used must match the top flange of the previous casing spool or crossover flange. Bolt-through
flange connections are the most popular and economical type of connection in certain parts of the
world. Clamp-hub connections are sometimes specified, because they are much faster to make up
and because they reduce the diameter and weight of the assembly when space limitations are present.
Top Connections
FMC Surface Wellhead tubing heads have either bolt-through flange or clamp-hub top connections,
which are compatible with all FMC tubing head adapters. The producing pressure of the well
normally determines the pressure rating of the top connection.
Lockdown Screws
Most FMC Surface Wellhead Series tubing heads have a series of lockdown screws in the top flange
(unless customer or application requires otherwise). These lockdown screws have three functions:
to actuate compression-type hanger or packoff seals
to lock down the hanger or packoff to prevent movement caused by thermal expansion of the
tubing string during production
to lock down the hanger in the event of annulus pressure
NOTES:
Where customer preferences or applications do not allow the use of lockdown screws, internally
locking mechanisms are utilized. See section on Completion Solutions.

Bottom-Bowl Packoffs (secondary seals)
Tubing head bottom-bowl packoffs are used to seal around the production casing stub in the bottom
bowl of the tubing head. They are often referred to as secondary seals. The various packoff types
are described below:
Double FS Seals
This design consists of two elastomeric-shaped seals located in grooves in the bottom of the tubing
head. A seal is achieved by interference of the seal with the outside diameter of the casing and
the bottom or OD of its retaining groove. A spring molded in each inside corner of the seal provides
an anti-extrusion mechanism when sealing against pressure by bridging the gap between the tubing
outside diameter and casing head seal bore. The shape of the seal allows it flexibility to maintain
sealing interference with the large variations in tubing outside diameter.
PI Seals
These seals consist of a T-cap seal element, nonextrusion rings and a receiver ring. These components
will fit the HPE bottom prep configuration. The PI seal is designed for use up to 15,000 psi working
pressure and temperatures up to 75 o F or as low as -50 o F, depending on the elastomer selected.
It provides the proper compression and squeeze even with the larger API casing tolerances. The
design effectively intensifies the annulus pressure and thus the internal stress in the elastomer to
minimize the effects of explosive decompression.
SBMS-II Seals
This metal-to-metal seal consists of a U-shaped ring with a bump sealing surface at the outside
and inside legs of the U. When installed, the entry ramp compresses the legs of the U inward
and creates contact stress in each bump that provides the seal. This seal requires the casing
stub OD to be field machined after the casing is hung to provide the proper sealing tolerances and
surface finish. This is accomplished with a portable pneumatic-driven tool. It is good for temperatures ranging from -75 o F to 1200 o F.
RCMS Seals
The Rough Casing Metal Seal (RCMS) is designed to use up to 20,000 psi. This seal does not
require special machining of the casing stub; is compatible with temperatures from -20 o F to 350 o F
in corrosive environments; does not require special installation tools and is simple to install; is
NACE compatible; is compatible with casing spool and tubing spool strength; is compatible with
casing string strength properties.
NOTES:
TC-Series packoffs are usually installed in the tubing head prior to shipment. FMC tubing heads are also
available with threaded bottom preparations in some sizes and pressure ratings.

Description: The tubing head adapter provides a transition between the Christmas tree and the
tubing head. The bottom adapter connection matches the tubing head, and the top adapter connection matches the tree. Tubing head adapters are available for all types of single- and multiple-string completions, including those using electric submersible pumps, packers, downhole
control valves and gas lift valves. These adapters come with threaded, flanged or studded-flanged
top connections. Most tubing head adapters are available with hydraulic supply inlets for downhole control lines. If the customer requires, FMC Surface Wellhead also supplies various types
of adapters that will accommodate continuous control-line capabilities. Following you will find
the most generally used.
Basic Adapters A4
ESP Adapter
Basic Adapters
They provide only a transition between the tubing head and the tree. These adapters do not hang
the tubing or provide a controlled seal bore. Basic tubing head adapters have a smooth seal bore
and are used when tubing is suspended from the tubing hanger. They are designed for low-pressure completions where downhole line or tubing strings manipulation are not required. The basic
adapter is normally installed with the tree after tubing is run.
ESP Adapters
ESP adapters have seal bores to accommodate both a tubing hanger neck seal and an electrical
power feed-thru device. Standard ESP adapters are equipped with rotating flanges to mate to the
tubing head, minimizing concerns over alignment issues. Positive alignment can be obtained
through the use of optional features in the mating ESP hanger. ESP adapters can be supplied to
match standard tubing heads rated to 3,000 and 5,000 psi working pressure.

Coupling Adapters
Coupling adapters provide a means to suspend the tubing in conjunction with a special coupling.
They provide a lower connection for the tubing head and an upper connection for the tree and are
used with a tubing coupling, which suspends the tubing and accepts a back-pressure valve. It is
used for high-pressure completions where the operator wants to manipulate tubing through a
wraparound packoff or stripper and needs a back-pressure valve and/or a hydraulic supply inlet for
downhole control lines. An ACME thread is machined into the adapters bottom inside diameter to
be utilized in conjunction with the coupling to hang the tubing. Then it can be screwed onto the
coupling. When a tree is trimmed for critical service, a coupling adapter with a coupling nut is
available to prevent possible galling of threads between the adapter and coupling on makeup.

Description: Tubing hangers are installed in the top bowl of a tubing head. Tubing hangers both
suspend tubing and provide a primary annulus seal between the tubing and production casing.
Hangers are run through the blowout preventers and are landed in the top bowl of the tubing
head. Tubing hangers are available for any type of tubing completion. Tubing hangers also act as
a means to access and manipulate additional smaller tubing lines that are utilized downhole and
extended to the surface on the outside of the tubing string or strings. Packoffs allow tubing
string manipulation for setting packers or displacing fluid while sealing the annulus between the
tubing and the production casing.
FMC Surface Wellhead TC-Series tubing hangers are available for any type of single- or multiplestring tubing completion, including those requiring packers, subsurface safety valves, gas-lift
valves and electric submersible pumps. All FMC Surface Wellhead hangers can be run through the
blowout preventers, allowing the well to be secured before the preventers are removed.
Most TC-Series tubing hangers accept a back-pressure valve, which seals the tubing bore.
These BPV profiles may be of FMC Surface Wellhead design or they may be of another manufacturers design, depending upon the customers requirements. Some hangers are ported for
hydraulic control lines, downhole safety valves or other equipment as required by the customer.
S i n g l e - S t r i n g Tu b i n g H a n g e r s
Most TC-Series single-string hangers do not require aligning pins and are compatible with any TCSeries tubing head. Generally speaking, alignment pins will not be required unless there is a need
to orient a hanger a particular way. An example of this might be when an additional line is being
run with the tubing string and needs to be ported through a particular position in the tubing spool.
TC-1A
TC-1W
TC-1A
The TC-1A is a threaded tubing hanger with an integral compression-type annulus seal that is
actuated by string weight and or by lockdown screws. This hanger is also known as a threaded
mandrel-type hanger and is considered one of the most basic and least expensive hangers in FMC
Surface Wellheads TC product line.
TC-1W
The TC-1W is a split, wraparound packoff that allows tubing-string manipulation to displace fluid
while maintaining complete control of annular pressure. Like all TC-Series packoffs, tubing string
weight must be suspended from a tubing suspension adapter or coupling adapter. The TC-1W has a
compression-type seal which is actuated by lockdown screws.

BO-2 Coupling
Page 13
BO-10 Coupling
TC-B-EC
BO-2 Coupling
A BO-2 coupling-type tubing hanger uses a one-piece coupling that is externally threaded with a
coarse heavy-duty ACME thread. Internally the coupling will provide tubing threads in the top and
bottom along with a back-pressure valve groove. The BO-2 coupling is attached to the last tubing
joint and is run in conjunction with a TC-1W wraparound-type packoff. Ultimately, the BO-2 coupling is made up into a BO-2 adapter that is assembled on the bottom of the Christmas tree.
BO-10 Coupling
The BO-10 coupling-type tubing hanger is generally utilized on completions demanding higher
completion shut-in pressures. This hanger is a coupling by design but also incorporates a separate
rotating, ACME-threaded locking nut. This design is also attached to the last tubing joint, and is
run in conjunction with a TC-1W wraparound-type packoff. Ultimately, the BO-10 coupling is made
up into a BO-10 adapter that is assembled on the bottom of the Christmas tree.
TC ESP
The TC ESP hanger is dual-ported, with one port designed to accept a single production tubing
string. The second port is designed to accommodate the electrical conductors that pass the current between the surface cable and the subsurface cable that goes to the pump.
The TC ESP hanger is designed for 7 1/16"- 3,000/5,000 and 11"- 3,000/5,000 flange sizes. We
standardized on EUE thread configurations. Nevertheless, additional thread profiles and different
configurations can be supplied. While configurations and designs may differ with customer requirements, the basic design concepts stay the same.
Benefits
Can easily convert an existing flowing well to an ESP without the need to change out the tubing
head. Can utilize a TCM-type tubing head.
Can convert a finished hanger with a QCI penetrator profile to accept a BIW penetrator.

Penetrator does not require rotation for makeup. Eliminates the potential of seal or thread
damage when rotation of penetrator is necessary.
TC-2C
Features
Allows tubing string to be run and pulled independently.
Provides for maximum clearance for gas-lift valves, SCSSV and packers.
FMC Surface Wellhead ISA back-pressure-valve preparation in each hanger half is standard.

Kome (Chad)
A major oil company faced a substantial logistical challenge when it developed an oilfield in a region of Africa with no established oilfield infrastructure and remote
from existing shipping channels. This operator wanted the most reliable enhancedrecovery surface wellhead technology on the market for the venture and looked to
FMC Energy Systems to provide it. Our company has years of experience throughout
Africa and knew the most reliable choice of technology the customer would require in
Chad. We recommended a field-proven ESP system, including our industry-standard
Model 120 gate valves, HNBR FMC-molded S & FS elastomer seals,
and FMC C22 casing head, another industry standard. Each of these components
has delivered at least 15 years outstanding field performance.

There are moments when the challenge is not the environment, the pressure or
the reliability. Shallow, marginal low-pressure well production dictates a very tight
budget. The oil company then needs to maximize its use of customer property
and to utilize the adequate technology to match its application. There is not extra
cash for any luxury beyond the basic requirements. At FMC Surface Wellhead we
listened to market situations and decided to develop our FH line with tapered bowl
and exclusive elastomer seal design to stay on budget.

Sarawak (Malaysia)
This major European-based oil company planned to develop a high-flow-rate, corrosive
field in Borneo. Not only does this company uphold the highest standards for safety of
crew and environment, but it would be operating in a part of the globe that it had not
previously explored. The company came to FMC Energy Systems for its reputation as a
worldwide supplier familiar with the Far East and the challenges of working here, and
known for the high reliability of our wellhead systems. Energy Systems sales engineers
recommended technology appropriate to the highest standard required, a fully featured
system with metal-to-metal seals and Speedloc connections. We knew this would be
the best cost-to-risk choice for the customer, who would not have to be concerned
about the equipment performance over the life of the field. They also felt such a system
would be easier and safer to install and safer over the life of the wells, and that it would
save them rig time during installation.

Key features to ensure reliability for the life of the valve are:
Metal-to-metal sealed bonnet assembly: Separate weather seals on the Series 100 valve bonnet assemblies isolate the stem, stem
bearings, packing nut and other internal components from external environment.
Heavy-duty stem bearings: Dual stem bearings support all axial loading on the stem. These low-friction, tapered roller bearings also help
reduce operating torque.
High-strength stem threads: Standard ACME threads offer high shear strength and high contact area for maximum endurance. A separate
gate-lift nut contains the mating threads instead of the gate itself. This flexible design permits optimum stem/lift nut material combinations and
allows the gate to float independently from the stem. In the unlikely event of thread damage, only the nut or stem needs to be replaced.
Stem shear pin: The stem is protected against accidental twist-off by the stem shear-pin. The pin can be quickly replaced without disassembling the valve bonnet.
Close-fitting gate guides: Stainless-steel gate guides stay within a few thousands of an inch of the gate, acting as mud skirts to minimize
well fluids, sand and mud from entering the valve body as the gate opens and closes.

A ctuators
FMC Surface Wellhead offers its own actuator product line that includes
the HPPN Pneumatic Piston, the HPHYW Hydraulic Wire Shear Actuator
and the HPHY Hydraulic Piston Actuator. This design has been
proven worldwide in the field for more than 35 years.

Hydraulic Actuators:
The actuator is fail-safe/fail-close because it will close with the loss of control pressure, with or
without pressure in the valve body.
Heavy-duty coated spring package is designed to provide closing force at zero or low pressure.
Actuators are designed with back-seat capability.
Designed to accept our full range of accessories, i.e., stem protectors, fusible lockout caps, etc.
Quick-disconnect design and spring box design reduces time required during maintenance
operations.

Functions
Actuators are used on secondary master valve and/or wing valve of a Christmas tree, flow
lines, header valves, gathering lines and pipelines.
As part of a surface safety system, the actuator will shut off flow from the well in the event of a
catastrophic event.
The HP-PN surface safety valve is a pneumatic-controlled actuator that is operated by an air or
gas source.
Pneumatic pressure acting on the piston holds the valve open. Loss of pneumatic pressure in
the actuators cylinder allows the well or flowline pressure acting on the area of the lower stem
to force the stem and gate closed.
Pneumatic actuators can be used in both gas and oil wells. Care should be taken when using
pneumatic actuators on high-pressure and/or large-bore applications.
One of the opening characteristics of a pneumatic actuator is that once sufficient force is
generated to break the differential, the valve will instantaneously go from closed to full open.
This causes a slam-open effect that can cause damage to gates and seats. This can potentially
damage the actuator. The following are some methods to reduce this potential problem:
o Reduce the differential pressure across the valve.
o Reduce the volume of air in the cylinder.
o Dampener mechanism.
o Use of a hydraulic actuator is considered the best option.
Benefits
Loss of control pressure above the piston will cause the actuator to close the valve.
In the event of a fire, the metal-to-metal seal between bonnet and lower stem acts as a
secondary seal if the stem packing is damaged.
Has a back-seat test port and packing leak detection port.
A relief valve on the cylinder prevents overpressurization.
Large piston area permits use of low-pressure air or gas control systems.
Has a rising stem for visual indication.
Pneumatic cylinder and piston are electrolysis nickel plated for corrosion resistance, reducing
repair cost.
Upper stem packing is easily removed.

Functions
The actuators are used on the secondary master valve. They are the primary surface safety
device during a wireline operation.
As part of a surface safety system, the actuator will shear the wireline and seal off the flow
from the well in the event of a catastrophic event.
The HP-HYW surface safety valve is a hydraulically controlled actuator that is operated by a

SEALS
Seal echnology
Seals are critical for achieving reliable pressure integrity in wellhead equipment. FMC Energy Systems
is proud of our sealing designs, and we would like to share our seal technology with you so you can
take it into account next time you specify your equipment.
Common oilfield elastomers are sufficiently reliable for low-pressure, normal-service oil and gas
wells, and special elastomer compounds and designs are available for critical-service wells. However, all
elastomer compounds lose some of their sealing effectiveness over time, with the rate of degradation
dependent on environment. Sometimes a metal seal option can be a cost-effective way to increase
service life and improve production efficiencies. FMC Energy Systems has the expertise to help you
decide the best fit (elastomer or metal) for your application.
Elastomer
E lastomer
and
Metal
Seals
Seals
A number of the more conventional wellhead seals can no longer meet the new stringent design-acceptance criteria, such as
the larger API casing and tubing OD tolerances now allowed by API Spec-5CT. For example, the conventional O-ring seal is
very limited in its ability to bridge large extrusion gaps and remain intact without some kind of antiextrusion device. In addition,
some seal designs cannot keep a bubble-tight seal over the wide temperature ranges and large pressure variations encountered.
FMC Energy Systems response to these new API requirements addresses the limitations found in traditional interference and slab-packing applications with the following key design features:
Seals meet API Spec. 6A, Appendix F, Performance Requirement Level Two (PR-2) pressure and temperature cycle testing.
All seal designs utilize one of the FMC proprietary elastomeric compounds. These seal compounds are rated for all API
material classes, including class HH (H2S/CO2 service), and are also amine resistant.
Antiextrusion devices are incorporated into each type of seal design to compensate for thermal expansion/contraction of
the seal element and for installation clearances.
All seal elements and antiextrusion components are continuous.
Antiextrusion devices are integrally molded into the seal element, making them easier to install and more durable.
All seals are designed to provide proper squeeze, volume fill and stretch under all API/FMC tolerance conditions, i.e., the
largest diametric gap possible and the worst-case misalignment of sealing surfaces.

become a technological breakthrough for wellhead equipment. FMC Energy Systems metal seals are rugged enough for the
oilfield operation, have simple installation procedures, are easily tested after installation and are reusable in most applications.
In most applications FMC Energy Systems metal seals are self energizing and do not rely on a wedging action, suspended weight or flange make-up force to affect a seal. The seal is pressure assisted and can work in any pressure.
Meet API Spec. 6A, Appendix F, Performance Requirement Level Two (PR-2) pressure and temperature
cycle testing.
Are rated for all API material classes, including class HH (H2S/CO2 service) and are also amine resistant.
Can be made from almost any high-strength steel or corrosion-resistant alloy, for use in extreme corrosive services.
Work in all temperature ranges, from -75F arctic service to 1200F for fire-resistant applications.
Are easy to install and test and can withstand standard oilfield handling.
Do not deform (crush) metal, either on the seal or on the mating surfaces, so both are normally reusable, minimizing
workover costs.

S-Seal
The S-Seal is designed to provide reliable sealing between machined components. It is a versatile
and reliable seal in cyclic high-pressure and -temperature applications, where conventional
interference-type seals (O-rings, belt packing, dovetail, etc.) are typically inadequate.
The S-Seal is an interference-type seal utilizing metal coil springs molded integrally into the
exposed seal corners as antiextrusion devices. Another important feature of the FMC design is the
use of a continuous coil spring, which eliminates weak points around the seals circumference.
The S-Seal can be used in many applications where there is a controlled/machined gap between
the sealing bore and shaft; for example, a mandrel hanger neck and tubing head adapter bore. There
are both O.D. and I.D. applications of the S-Seal, with sizes available in nominal diameters up to
20. The S-Seal design can be rated up to 10,000 psi working pressure and a 0 to 250F temperature
range for all sizes. Special designs allow qualification to 15,000 psi working pressure and 300F.
S-Seal
FS-Seal
The FS-Seal has been designed to seal against rough casing where wide tolerances and varying
surface finishes create difficult sealing conditions. It is utilized as a large cross-section interference
seal to bridge large extrusion gaps associated with sealing on rough mill casing. The bump provides
higher sealing contact stresses, while the curved recess on the back of the seal controls the
amount of compression (squeeze) on the seal element by allowing it to deflect outward when sealing against a larger-than-normal outer-casing diameter or an out-of-round section of casing.
The FS-Seal can be supplied integral to a casing-head bottom preparation as a 1-FS (one seal
with no secondary) or 2-FS (two seals with one secondary) packoff. It can also be supplied as a
separate 4-S packoff bushing, which incorporates a secondary S-Seal on the bushing OD and a
secondary FS-Seal on the ID. The FS-Seal is available for 4 1/2 to 30 pipe sizes. The FS-Seal is
rated to 10,000 psi working pressure and a 0 to 250F temperature range for sizes up to 16,
while the larger sizes are rated to 5,000 psi working pressure.

PI Seal
The FMC PI Seal design is an extremely reliable high-pressure sealing mechanism. The PI assembly is comprised of an upper junk
ring guide, the pressure-intensified (PI) seal assembly, and lower ACME threaded lock ring to hold the packoff in the bottom of the
tubing head.
The PI design addresses some rather complex problems associated with oilfield elastomer seal designs, including explosive
decompression, extrusion at high pressures/temperatures, and seal shrinkage/poor response at low temperatures.
The PI seal uses the casing annulus pressure to generate a higher pressure in the elastomer seal, which eliminates the diffusion
of gas into the elastomer. This pressure intensification is generated by a movable T ring which creates an unbalanced pressure
area across the elastomer seal. This design is coupled with FMCs proprietary seal formulation, which also has improved gas permeation as well as excellent oilfield fluid resistance.
The T-ring design also allows the elastomer to self-compensate for seal stress fluctuations caused by thermal cycling. The movement of the T-ring automatically controls excessive seal stresses caused by elastomer expansion. At very low temperatures, the phenomenon of seal stress relaxation caused by elastomer shrinkage is again automatically compensated for by annulus pressure
applied to the unbalanced area T-ring.
Seal failure due to extrusion is addressed by the use of automatic ramping antiextrusion rings made from thermoplastic material. The antiextrusion rings are located at all four corners of the seal. These rings compensate for the extrusion gaps caused by API
casing tolerances and manufacturing head tolerances.
The PI seal is rated to 15,000 psi working pressure and was developed for use as a lower casing or tubing spool packoff where
long-term reliable sealing in hostile environments is required.

SBMS Seals
FMC Energy Systems straight-bore metal seal (SBMS) is energized by interference between the designated primary sealing surface
and the metal seals contact area with that sealing surface. The SBMS is a nonintegral double-ended seal sleeve manufactured from
high-strength, low-alloy steel or corrosion-resistant alloy. The seal can be installed separately and can be easily replaced.
The seal design is based on an interference fit with pressure-intensified sealing. As the tubing head bonnet is nippled up, the
seal lip (bump) engages an entry ramp in the seal bore, radially deflecting the seal lip inward, creating the contact stress required
to effect a seal. In the fully installed position, the seal lips engage a straight bore above the entry ramp (see illustration). The SBMS
maintains sufficient contact-sealing stress even at very low pressure. As working pressure increases, contact-sealing stresses
increase, making it seal even tighter.
The SBMS qualification tests were conducted with low pressure and high pressure, the fire test pass (API RP-6F Improved) of
2,000F flame temperatures and 1,200F internal seal temperature with zero leakage.
SBMS-II Seals
The SBMS-II has bumps on the inside diameter and the outside diameter. Each seal lip engages its entry ramp, creating the sealing contact stress with the sealing diameter.
The SBMS-II is used mainly as a production casing metal seal on either extended-neck mandrel-casing hangers or directly
against the casing stub when slip hangers are used. When employed to seal against a casing stub, it is required to machine the
casing stub after the casing is hung off. However, it requires only approximately 1 1/4 of the casing stub. The operation can be
executed with a portable pneumatic tool.
The SBMS-II is normally used on production casing where extreme temperature fluctuations are anticipated or in critical-service
applications. When used against slip-suspended casing, FMC Energy Systems provides an ACME threaded casing holddown nut to
minimize upward thermal expansion of the casing and act as a bit guide to protect the SBMS-II seal when running tubing or conditioning the hole.
The SBMS-II seal has been used in sizes up to 20. Various applications of the SBMS-II design include valve stem back-seat
seals, valve seat body seals and tubing hanger annular packoffs.
RCMS Seals
The most recent addition to the family of metal seals is the rough-casing metal seal (RCMS). This seal design does not require
special complex field machining of the casing stub; is compatible with a wide range of temperatures and corrosive environments;
does not require special installation tools and is simple to install; is NACE compatible; is compatible with casing spool and tubing
spool strength; and is compatible with casing string strength properties.
XEMS Seals
FMC Energy Systems externally energized metal seal (XEMS) is used in Unihead wellhead systems for special mandrel casing
hanger and tubing hanger applications. The externally energized seal requires mechanical force to effect a seal. The XEMS seal can
be run through the BOP stack and is energized by lockdown screws or by an internal lockdown ring and running tool.

Elastomer
Ca p a b i l i t y
performance is about seal performance. Higher pressures, well-treatment chemicals, longer frac times and
other critical-service conditions place emphasis on seal
integrity. If a seal failed, the budget can be severely
impacted. Our customers demand the most reliable seals
technology can deliver, and our industry has set new
standards for seal performance. Conventional O-ring seals no longer meet application demands and industry standards.
In order to maintain complete control over the quality and performance of our elastomer seals, FMC Energy Systems has
made a substantial investment in an Elastomer Laboratory dedicated to the development of new and improved elastomer seal
materials and designs.
Field-proven designs developed by FMC Energy Systems include FS-Seals, S-Seals, and Compression Packings with Wire
Mesh. At the heart of these premium seal designs are proprietary elastomer compounds formulated to provide the best combination
of mechanical properties and chemical resistance to oilfield environments.
Molding of FMC Energy Systems seal designs using these proprietary compounds is performed at our Nonmetallic Production
Facility, located in Houston, Texas. Our experience has demonstrated that in-house elastomer seal manufacture and optimized
compounds provide the most reliable combination of mechanical and chemical properties in a premium elastomer seal. This is in
contrast to much of the oilfield industry which outsources seal manufacturing.
New seal designs demanding new, improved compounds, new molding techniques and testing processes are developed
in our Elastomer manufacturing and testing facilities. This assures that FMC Energy Systems brand elastomer seals are not only
state-of-the-art design and materials, but rigorously tested for the complete range of customer applications and environmental
operating conditions.
