Metal-Lok™ Wellhead Penetrator

Product Description

Rated and tested to 300°F and 5000 psi, Metal-Lok Wellhead Penetrator covers the majority of ESP well applications and is designed and tested to handle harsh environments. The use of PEEK insulation and minimal use of elastomers make it highly resistant to downhole pressure decompression. Like the rest of the Metal-Lok™ family, this product has been subjected to BIW’s qualification regimen to prove its robustness and reliability. This rigorous process consists of aging the product in refined hydrocarbons and applying water and gas at max pressure and temperature, followed by repetitive pressure cycling. 

The Surface Connectors are supplied with coupling rings retained by ball bearings. This retention method ensures longer life, better resistance to corrosion, and easier engagement. For more information click here.

    Metal-Lok HT Wellhead Penetrator System

    The Metal-Lok™ High Temperature wellhead penetrator system is rated 450°F (232°C) and 3,000 psi and is suitable for some of the most challenging downhole conditions. Like the rest of the Metal-Lok™ family, this product has been subjected to BIW Connector Systems' qualification regimen to prove its robustness and reliability. This rigorous process consists of aging the product in refined hydrocarbons and applying water and gas at max pressure and temperature, followed by repetitive pressure cycling. The Metal-Lok™ High Temperature system has a field attachable lower, which is configurable to many different cables, making the system flexible for a wide variety of installations. Being field attachable also eliminates the need for a downhole splice, which saves rig time.

FAQs

What is the Metal-Lok Keying System?

The Metal-Lok™ Keying System is the most robust design available on the market for protection against rotational forces and damage. The slot and tab design engages in only one orientation, so components align correctly and will not turn in place. The positive keying system ensures penetrator reliability.

What benefit does arc-resistant PEEK material provide?

This product uses an arc-resistant PEEK material that provides additional fire safety and enables quicker delivery.
