A computational analysis on an initial application of a Hemiwedge based sub-surface safety valve for use in ultra-deepwater oil wells and extreme high pressure, high temperature environments
This study proposes and validates computationally the effectiveness of a novel, hemiwedge model for a sub-surface safety valve (SSSV). With the growing needs in the oil industry and new finds of ultra-deepwater reservoirs in the Gulf of Mexico (GOM), this SSSV will provide a small but necessary adva...
