PVDF Encapsulated SAF 2507 Hydraulic Control Line Flatpack

Encapsulation is a plastic that is extruded over metal tube. Encapsulation prevents damage to the metal tubes during the manufacturing process. The encapsulation also provides additional abrasion resistance and is required if cable protectors are installed to enhance the holding force over each production tubing connection.

Encapsulations are available in a wide range of configurations with options of single pass encapsulation and dual pass encapsulation for added protection.

Flatpacks are commonly used when several different lines are terminated at approximately the same depth in the well.

Common applications include intelligent well systems, deep-set chemical injection lines with downhole gauge cable and safety valve lines with shallow set chemical injection lines. For some applications bumper bars are also encapsulated into the flatpack to provide additional crush resistance.
