Halliburton TO Standing Valve Assembly

Design Overview
The Halliburton TO Standing Valve allows fluid to flow in an upward
direction only. The valve is attached to a Halliburton Lock Mandrel and is
installed in a landing nipple in the tubing string by wireline methods.

Design Principle
If production stops for some reason, tubing fluid and back pressure will try
to flow back into the formation. A reverse flow such as this should be
stopped; otherwise, the formation could become plugged and result in
damage to the well production capability. To prevent this backward flow,
the standing valve closes and holds the column of fluid and the back
pressure in the tubing. When production resumes, the ball will lift off the
seat and allow fluid flow.
