Threaded plugs that can be installed in the wellhead to enable side outlet valve (SOV) removal under pressure
talk to an expertIt may be necessary to isolate a leaking gate valve from annulus or tubing pressure, allowing the valve to be removed or replaced safely. This is accomplished by installing a valve removal plug using the Valve Removal (VR) hydraulic lubricator.
The VR hydraulic lubricator design relies on the balance of pressure above and below the piston of the polish rod to control the extension and retraction of the tool as well as the force applied to the VR plug’s motion.
Facilitates installing and removing back pressure valves, two-way check valves in the tubing hanger, and retrieving stuck plugs from the wellhead systems.
