Encapsulation provides a protective layer to keep the lines from being scratched, dented, and possibly crushed while running in hole.
Encapsulation of several components (Flat Pack) provides a consolidation that will help reduce equipment and personnel that is needed to deploy multiple single components. In many cases, a flat pack is mandatory as rig space can be limited.
Features, Advantages and Benefits:
● Control lines are delivered in orbital-weld-free lengths up to 40,000 ft (12,192 m) to maximize reliability.
● A wide range of single, dual, or triple flat-packs is available. Flat-packs can be combined with downhole electrical cables and/or bumper wires for easier operation and handling during deployment.
● Welded-and-plug-drawn production method ensures a smooth, round tube to allow long-term metal sealing of terminations.
● Encapsulation materials are selected to suit well conditions, ensuring longevity and reliability.
