Abstract
In a sub-sea wellhead insert-type choke valve having a bonnet a pair of pressure transmitters are mounted in the bonnet. One transmitter is connected by a passageway with the annular clearance between the cartridge of the insert assembly and the valve body. This transmitter measures the pressure of the fluid in the clearance and transmits signals indicative thereof to a receiver at surface. The other transmitter is connected by a passageway with the fluid in the valve outlet, measures the pressure of this fluid and transmits signals indicative thereof to the receiver. In this way the high and low pressures upstream and downstream of the choke valve flow trim are monitored by transmitters, which can be serviced by bringing the insert assembly to surface.

4 FIELD OF THE INVENTION
6 The present invention relates to a sub-sea choke valve having pressure sensing 7 transmitters.
11 A choke valve is a throttling device. It is conxmonly used as part of an oil or 12 gas field wel~head. It functions to reduce the pressure of the fluid flowing through the 13 valve. Choke valves are placed on the production "tree" of an oil or gas wellhead 14 assembly to control the flow of produced fluid from a reservoir into the production flow line. They are used on wellheads located on land and on off-shore wellheads located 16 beneath the surface of the ocean.
17 A choke valve incorporates what is referred to as a "flow trim". The flow trim 18 is positioned within the choke valve at the intersection of the choke valve's inlet and 19 outlet. The flow trim commonly comprises a stationary tubular cylinder referred to as a "cage". The cage is positioned transverse to the inlet and its bore is axially aligned 21 with the outlet. The cage has restrictive flow ports extending through its sidewall.
22 Fluid enters the cage from the choke valve inlet, passes through the ports and changes 23 direction to leave the cage bore through the valve outlet.
{ EM185791.DOC;3 }
1 Such a flow trim also comprises a tubular throttling sleeve that slides over the 2 cage. The sleeve acts to reduce or increase the area of the ports. An actuator, such as a 3 threaded stem assembly, is provided to bias the sleevE; back and forth along the cage.
4 The amount of fluid that passes through the flow trim is dependent on the relative position of the sleeve on the cage and the amount of port area that is revealed by the 6 sleeve.
7 Sub-sea oil or gas wells can be as deep as 600() feet below sea level. At these 8 depths, maintenance on the wellhead assemblies cannot be performed manually.
An 9 unmanned, remotely operated vehicle, referred to as an "ROV", is used to approach the wellhead and carry out maintenance functions. To aid in servicing sub-sea choke 11 valves, choke valves have their internal components, including the flow trim, 12 assembled into a modular sub-assembly. The sub-assembly is referred to as an "insert 13 assembly" and is inserted into the choke valve body and clamped into position.
14 A typical prior art sub-sea choke valve a is shown in Figure 1. It comprises a choke body b forming a T-shaped bore c that provides a horizontal inlet d, a vertical 16 bottom outlet a and an upper vertical component chamber f. A removable insert 17 assembly g is positioned in the component chamber f, extending transversely of the 18 inlet d. The insert assembly g comprises a tubular cartridge h, forming a side port i, a 19 flow trim j comprising a cage k and throttling sleeve l, a collar assembly m and a bonnet n. The bonnet n is disengagably clamped to the body b. It closes the upper ends 21 of the valve body b and the cartridge h. The stem assembly m extends through the 22 bonnet n into the cartridge bore o to bias the sleeve 1 along the cage k to throttle the 23 restrictive flow ports p.
{EM185791.DOC;3 }
1 The choke valve 'sees' or experiences relatively high and relatively low fluid 2 pressures. More particularly, the fluid flowing in through the valve inlet d from the 3 well (not shown) has a high pressure. When the fluid passes through the restrictive 4 cage ports p, it undergoes a considerable pressure drop. So the fluid passing through the cage bore q and the valve outlet a is at lower pressure than that in the body inlet d.
6 The high pressure fluid penetrates into an annular clearance r between the 7 cartridge h and the internal bore surface s of the body b. Also, the low pressure fluid in 8 the cage bore q and valve outlet a penetrates through communication ports t in the end 9 wall of the throttling sleeve I and into a passageway a extending partway along the length of the collar assembly m.
11 When the flow trim,j becomes worn beyond its useful service life due to erosion 12 and corrosion caused by particles and corrosive agents in the produced substances, an 13 ROV is used to approach the choke valve a, unclamp the insert assembly g from the 14 choke valve body b and attach a cable to the insert assembly g, so that it may be raised to the surface for replacement or repair. The ROV then installs a new insert assembly lb and clamps it into position. This procedure eliminates the need to raise the whole 17 wellhead assembly to the surface to service a worn choke valve.
18 In order to efficiently produce a reservoir, it is necessary to monitor the pressure 19 upstream and downstream of the choke valve. This is done to ensure that damage to the formation does not occur and to ensure that well production is maximized.
This 21 process has been, historically, accomplished through the installation of pressure 22 transmitters into the flow lines upstream and downstream of the choke valve. The 23 pressure read by the upstream and downstream pressure transmitters is sent to a remote 24 location for monitoring, so that a choke valve controller can remotely bias the flow trim { EM 185791.DOC;3 }
1 to affect the desired downstream flow line pressure. The controller sends electrical 2 signals to means, associated with the choke valve, fox adjusting the flow trim.
3 A problem, however, exists with this process due to the unreliable nature of 4 these electronic pressure transmitters, which have a limited service life.
Replacing the pressure transmitters after they have served their useful life has heretofore required that 6 the whole wellhead assembly be raised to the surface. This is a time-consuming and 7 costly operation that shuts down well production for the duration of the repair.
8 The present invention proposes a modified choke valve that eliminates the need 9 to raise a sub-sea wellhead assembly to the surface to replace or repair pressure transmitters.
13 The invention involves locating one or preferably a pair of pressure transmitters 14 in the upper end of the bonnet of the insert assembly. One transmitter is connected by a first passageway extending through the bonnet to communicate with the annular 16 clearance between the cartridge and the valve body. This transmitter thus can measure 17 the high pressure of the incoming fluid and transmit a signal indicative thereof to a 18 remote receiver. A second transmitter is connected by a second passageway, extending 19 through the bonnet, which communicates with the valve outlet. This transmitter thus can measure the pressure of the fluid that has undergone a pressure drop by passing 21 through the flow trim. It can transmit a signal indicative of this reduced pressure to the 22 remote receiver.
{EM185791.DOC;3 }
1 By positioning one or both of the transmitters in the bonnet of the removable 2 insert assembly, they can now be replaced or repaired economically by bringing the 3 choke insert assembly to surface.
6 The present invention relates to a sub-sea choke valve having pressure sensing 7 transmitters.
11 A choke valve is a throttling device. It is conxmonly used as part of an oil or 12 gas field wel~head. It functions to reduce the pressure of the fluid flowing through the 13 valve. Choke valves are placed on the production "tree" of an oil or gas wellhead 14 assembly to control the flow of produced fluid from a reservoir into the production flow line. They are used on wellheads located on land and on off-shore wellheads located 16 beneath the surface of the ocean.
17 A choke valve incorporates what is referred to as a "flow trim". The flow trim 18 is positioned within the choke valve at the intersection of the choke valve's inlet and 19 outlet. The flow trim commonly comprises a stationary tubular cylinder referred to as a "cage". The cage is positioned transverse to the inlet and its bore is axially aligned 21 with the outlet. The cage has restrictive flow ports extending through its sidewall.
22 Fluid enters the cage from the choke valve inlet, passes through the ports and changes 23 direction to leave the cage bore through the valve outlet.
{ EM185791.DOC;3 }
1 Such a flow trim also comprises a tubular throttling sleeve that slides over the 2 cage. The sleeve acts to reduce or increase the area of the ports. An actuator, such as a 3 threaded stem assembly, is provided to bias the sleevE; back and forth along the cage.
4 The amount of fluid that passes through the flow trim is dependent on the relative position of the sleeve on the cage and the amount of port area that is revealed by the 6 sleeve.
7 Sub-sea oil or gas wells can be as deep as 600() feet below sea level. At these 8 depths, maintenance on the wellhead assemblies cannot be performed manually.
An 9 unmanned, remotely operated vehicle, referred to as an "ROV", is used to approach the wellhead and carry out maintenance functions. To aid in servicing sub-sea choke 11 valves, choke valves have their internal components, including the flow trim, 12 assembled into a modular sub-assembly. The sub-assembly is referred to as an "insert 13 assembly" and is inserted into the choke valve body and clamped into position.
14 A typical prior art sub-sea choke valve a is shown in Figure 1. It comprises a choke body b forming a T-shaped bore c that provides a horizontal inlet d, a vertical 16 bottom outlet a and an upper vertical component chamber f. A removable insert 17 assembly g is positioned in the component chamber f, extending transversely of the 18 inlet d. The insert assembly g comprises a tubular cartridge h, forming a side port i, a 19 flow trim j comprising a cage k and throttling sleeve l, a collar assembly m and a bonnet n. The bonnet n is disengagably clamped to the body b. It closes the upper ends 21 of the valve body b and the cartridge h. The stem assembly m extends through the 22 bonnet n into the cartridge bore o to bias the sleeve 1 along the cage k to throttle the 23 restrictive flow ports p.
{EM185791.DOC;3 }
1 The choke valve 'sees' or experiences relatively high and relatively low fluid 2 pressures. More particularly, the fluid flowing in through the valve inlet d from the 3 well (not shown) has a high pressure. When the fluid passes through the restrictive 4 cage ports p, it undergoes a considerable pressure drop. So the fluid passing through the cage bore q and the valve outlet a is at lower pressure than that in the body inlet d.
6 The high pressure fluid penetrates into an annular clearance r between the 7 cartridge h and the internal bore surface s of the body b. Also, the low pressure fluid in 8 the cage bore q and valve outlet a penetrates through communication ports t in the end 9 wall of the throttling sleeve I and into a passageway a extending partway along the length of the collar assembly m.
11 When the flow trim,j becomes worn beyond its useful service life due to erosion 12 and corrosion caused by particles and corrosive agents in the produced substances, an 13 ROV is used to approach the choke valve a, unclamp the insert assembly g from the 14 choke valve body b and attach a cable to the insert assembly g, so that it may be raised to the surface for replacement or repair. The ROV then installs a new insert assembly lb and clamps it into position. This procedure eliminates the need to raise the whole 17 wellhead assembly to the surface to service a worn choke valve.
18 In order to efficiently produce a reservoir, it is necessary to monitor the pressure 19 upstream and downstream of the choke valve. This is done to ensure that damage to the formation does not occur and to ensure that well production is maximized.
This 21 process has been, historically, accomplished through the installation of pressure 22 transmitters into the flow lines upstream and downstream of the choke valve. The 23 pressure read by the upstream and downstream pressure transmitters is sent to a remote 24 location for monitoring, so that a choke valve controller can remotely bias the flow trim { EM 185791.DOC;3 }
1 to affect the desired downstream flow line pressure. The controller sends electrical 2 signals to means, associated with the choke valve, fox adjusting the flow trim.
3 A problem, however, exists with this process due to the unreliable nature of 4 these electronic pressure transmitters, which have a limited service life.
Replacing the pressure transmitters after they have served their useful life has heretofore required that 6 the whole wellhead assembly be raised to the surface. This is a time-consuming and 7 costly operation that shuts down well production for the duration of the repair.
8 The present invention proposes a modified choke valve that eliminates the need 9 to raise a sub-sea wellhead assembly to the surface to replace or repair pressure transmitters.
13 The invention involves locating one or preferably a pair of pressure transmitters 14 in the upper end of the bonnet of the insert assembly. One transmitter is connected by a first passageway extending through the bonnet to communicate with the annular 16 clearance between the cartridge and the valve body. This transmitter thus can measure 17 the high pressure of the incoming fluid and transmit a signal indicative thereof to a 18 remote receiver. A second transmitter is connected by a second passageway, extending 19 through the bonnet, which communicates with the valve outlet. This transmitter thus can measure the pressure of the fluid that has undergone a pressure drop by passing 21 through the flow trim. It can transmit a signal indicative of this reduced pressure to the 22 remote receiver.
{EM185791.DOC;3 }
1 By positioning one or both of the transmitters in the bonnet of the removable 2 insert assembly, they can now be replaced or repaired economically by bringing the 3 choke insert assembly to surface.

17 Figures 1 - 3 illustrate a choke valve 1 whose main components have been 18 described in the Background section of this specification.
19 However the choke valve 1 has been modified in the following respects:
~ a pair of counterbores 2, 3 are provided, extending into the bonnet 4 from its 21 top end surface 5;
22 ~ the counterbores 2,3 are each internally threaded at 6;

10, formed between the cartridge 11 and body bore surface 12. Thus the 6 high pressure incoming fluid entering the body inlet 13 comes into contact 7 with the transmi ter 7 through the clearance 10 and passageway 9. The 8 transmitter 7 can therefore monitor this pressure and transmit signals 9 indicative thereon;

11 formed by communication ports 16 in the end wall 17 of the throttling
12 sleeve 18 and a passageway 19 leading through and along the stem assembly
13 20.
14 The fluid from the bore 21 of the cage 22 can therefore penetrate to the transmitter 8. This transmitter 8 can therefore monitor the reduced pressure of the fluid 16 in the cage bore 21 and transmit signals indicative thereof to the receiver.
