Technical insights into advances in wellhead sealing technology and testing
Qualifying high-pressure elastomer seals for use in wellhead and valve applications presents significant technical challenges and commercial risks.
Seal validation programs are costly, and any test failure can cause major delays. Understanding the most likely failure modes and mitigating them through a sound design and testing strategy is critical to ensure programs
are delivered on time, within budget, and with confidence in the seal’s performance.
This paper explores the complexities of high pressure elastomeric seal qualification.
