Definitions

  • the invention relates to a safety valve intended to be inserted into an oil well production tube in order to ensure its opening or closing.
  • the invention extends to tools, installation tool and recovery tool, for the implementation of said valve.
  • the safety valves for oil wells have the function of automatically stopping the production of effluent if an incident occurs at the head of the well or downstream from it. They are hydraulically controlled upon opening from the surface and are closed automatically by means of a powerful return spring as soon as a hydraulic pressure drop, commanded or accidental, occurs. These valves have been the subject of numerous development and improvement studies, and their use has become widespread, in particular in offshore eruptive wells.
  • valves are anchored in a receptacle sleeve housed in the production tube; anchoring is carried out by means of elastic dogs capable of undergoing a radial expansion which cause them to penetrate into an anchoring groove of the receptacle sleeve: these elastic dogs are then locked in their anchoring position by means of a spring which repels a locking ring inside said dogs.
  • dogs elastic and the locking spring of the anchoring system are immersed in the effluent and are subject to the effects of corrosion and deposition of the latter.
  • the present invention proposes to provide an improved safety valve, free from the above-mentioned faults.
  • An object of the invention is in particular to guarantee a correct anchoring of the valve when it is placed in the well.
  • Another objective is to guarantee the satisfactory functioning of said valve on opening and to authorize its anchoring only in the event of complete opening.
  • Another objective is to authorize an easy ascent of the valve in all cases (normal ascent for maintenance operations or emergency ascent in the event of non-operation).
  • Another objective is to provide a valve whose anchoring system does not include any elastic part capable of being subjected to the effects of corrosion or deposition.
  • valve according to the invention is described by assuming it to be in place in an oil well, the terms “top”, “bottom”, “upper”, “lower” referring to this position.

  • This body carries a transverse spring 66 passing through a lumen thereof, a spring at the ends of which the two retaining dogs 67 are articulated. These dogs are thus held elastically by the spring 66 which tends to separate them, each of them being able to pivot around its articulation axis 68. As illustrated in FIG. 7, these axes 68 are guided by slides 65b formed in the body 65 so as to define a position of maximum separation when the axes abut at the bottom slides.
