摘要
Abstract Control line integrity is fundamental to ensure operability of intelligent completion systems. Damage to control lines can normally occur during string deployment (by shock), or during productive life (by vibration-related fatigue). This work aimed to investigate how encapsulation will affect control line survivability throughout their entire life cycle. Numerical simulations were carried out using geometrical arrangements of control lines typically found in completion valves and tubings. For installation loads, lines were submitted to shock simulations, both inside and outside of protection clamps. The role of flatpack material was studied, as to which kind of material would better absorb impact energy. For productive life loads, the flow-induced vibration was taken into account for high-rate injector wells. Vibration loads were based on force results obtained by Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). Structural Finite Element Analysis (FEA) was performed to obtain local tensions to estimate productive life of lines.
