Frequently Asked Wellhead Questions
Emergency shutdown (ESD) valves are a critical safety component at the wellhead. They are used to stop the flow of hazardous liquids or gases in case of an abnormal or hazardous condition.
Many wellheads are located in remote, unmanned locations. They may not have access to instrument air, process gas or utility electric power. Safety, reliability and environmental protection must also be considered when automating critical emergency shutdown (ESD) valves. A self-contained hydraulic actuator system or an electric actuator with low power requirements that can operate using solar power are two options to address these requirements.
An intelligent wellhead system is a sophisticated solution that integrates advanced automation, sensors, and analytics to enhance the management and control of wellhead operations.
This system typically includes:
• Advanced Sensors and Measurement Devices: To provide real-time data on pressure, temperature, flow rates, and other critical parameters.
• Automation and Control Technologies: To automate wellhead functions such as valve operations and pressure management, reducing the need for manual
intervention and increasing operational efficiency.
• Data Analytics and Monitoring: To analyze data from various sources, optimize performance, predict maintenance needs, and ensure compliance with safety and environmental regulations.
• Remote Access and Management: Enabling operators to monitor and control wellhead operations from remote locations, improving response times and
operational flexibility.
Overall, Emerson’s intelligent wellhead systems aim to increase safety, reliability, and productivity while reducing costs and environmental impact through state-of-the-art technology and integrated solutions
Modern remote terminal units (RTUs) are becoming the preferred control technology by multi-wellpad operators due to their agility and flexibility. RTUs offer greater capacity with a higher number of inputs and outputs and more processing power for data than programmable logic controllers (PLCs). Intuitive software tools allow users to configure RTUs while also providing access to the IEC 61131 programming environment that is common with PLCs to achieve as much control as needed. Installation is another important consideration. PLCs are part of a more comprehensive control system, often located in a large, onsite shelter. RTUs are engineered to endure harsh operating conditions, offering a wider operating temperature range with installation in convenient, cost-effective cabinets. In addition, RTUs generally have much lower power requirements than PLCs, helping to save on electricity costs.
