Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and a pressure activated valve for preventing fluid from passing through an ICD during installation and commissioning of a production string in a well bore. Further the invention relates to a method for operating the pressure activated valve. The pressure activated valve can be arranged outside the production string being configured to hinder fluid from entering the ICD from a reservoir when the pressure activated valve is closed and to allow fluid from entering from the reservoir when pressure activated valve is open.

Abstract: An overpressure protection system and methods of using the same are provided. The overpressure protection system can include at least two limiting diaphragms in fluid communication with corresponding overpressure diaphragms. Each limiting diaphragm can be configured to transmit pressure exerted by different fluid environments to their corresponding overpressure diaphragm. Each overpressure diaphragm can include a pre-tensioned diaphragm seal configured to allow transmission of pressures to a differential pressure sensing element, allowing measurement of a differential pressure between the different fluid environments. When pressure transmitted to an overpressure diaphragm reaches a pre-defined limit, the pre-tensioned diaphragm can inhibit transmission of further pressure increases to the differential pressure sensing element.

Abstract: A system is provided for facilitating the removal/replacement components in a high pressure process fluid system and includes a retrieval plug having a first end portion disposed within a first cavity of a process fluid conduit and a second end disposed within a second cavity of a blind flange, the first cavity exposed to the pressure environment of the process fluid, and a cap disposed between the blind flange and the second end portion of the access plug. The access plug is configured to transfer an indicated pressure from the first end portion to the second end portion and the cap is configured to transfer the indicated pressure to a pressure measurement sensor disposed remotely of the access plug.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are provided for protecting a flexible member, such as a cable, tube, capillary, fiber, and other similar structures. In an exemplary embodiment, a modular device can include multiple modules that are configured to engage a flexible member. Each module can be configured to couple to a flexible member by an interference fit and to removably mate to another module. Once assembled, the modules can allow movement in a particular direction to allow some flexion of a flexible member extending therethrough.
