Foam Wrap compensates for subsea well annular pressure.

info@productnews.com (ThomasNet News) — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 07:39:26 -0500

Typically installed within B or C annuli of subsea wells, CFW+ (Crushable Foam Wrap) acts as mechanical fuse and collapses at pre-determined pressure and temperature (110ºC) envelope. This allows expansion of annulus fluids as well as dissipation of any potentially hazardous increase in pressure. By incorporating Glass Bubbles, solution helps mitigate subsea well casing failure due to annular pressure build-up or trapped annular pressure.
