Deepwater Completion Installation This deepwater completion uses Halliburton s FracPac system technology (see the Halliburton Sand

Control catalog) and components to make the completion s capability as high rate as possible. Non-elastomer or metal-to-metal sealing is used in critical areas to ensure reliability. Full bore nipples and locks are used to maximize ID and eliminate slickline problems resulting from packing interference that can occur when standard locks are run through same-bore size landing nipples. A single-trip completion using the Mirage disappearing plug to set the high-pressure retrievable production packer reduces running time and simplifies the completion. Halliburton s broad experience in deepwater applications includes subsea completions tension leg platforms (TLP) and spars. Some tools used in deepwater completions include mudline tubing hangers, SP tubing retrievable safety valves, and long space-out travel joints. Halliburton offers two types of mudline tubing hangers the HGR and DHC. These tubi ng hangers are primarily used in deepwater completions to help support the high tubing loads, and in the case of the DHC design, act as an additional barrier. The Halliburton SP tubing-retrievable safety valve is a single rod-piston non-elastomer flapper valve designed for hostile environments and extend ed life applications where ultimate reliability is required. The Halliburton long space-out travel joint was designed to eliminate the space-out process required to install a production tubing string in a subsea completion. The joint is designed to collapse under a compressive load after a production seal assembly has been landed in a sealbore packer. After the joint collapses, the production tubing can be lowered until the subsea tubing hanger l
