SLA Sliding Sleeve

The Model SLA Sliding Sleeve is an economical, high-performing downhole device designed to provide communication between tubing and casing. Its simple yet effective design makes it a cost-efficient solution for well operations, particularly in scenarios where selective flow control is required.

Applications

• Displacing kill or completion fluids.
• Allowing multiple zones to produce through a single tubing string.
• Selective testing and stimulation of individual zones.
• Circulating fluids to kill the well.
• Gas-lifting operations.
• Landing blanking plugs for well shut-in, tubing testing, or sleeve testing.
• Circulating inhibitors or methanol.

Features

• Economical Design: Simplified construction for cost-efficiency.
• Replaceable Seals: Upper and lower seals are easy and inexpensive to replace.
• H2S Service Ready: Suitable for sour gas environments.
• High Internal Diameter (ID) Clearance: No profile or seal bores in the upper or lower sub, providing increased clearance.
• Selective Functionality: Multiple sleeves can be installed and independently operated.

Description

The SLA Sliding Sleeve is engineered to deliver dependable performance while minimizing operational costs. Its replaceable seals are made from various elastomer types, ensuring compatibility with diverse well environments.

The design eliminates profiles and seal bores in the upper and lower subs, increasing ID clearance. While this enhances flow efficiency, it limits the installation of certain flow control devices, making it best suited for specific applications where these devices are not required.

The sleeve can be selectively opened and closed using the EB Shifting Tool, with upward jarring to open and downward jarring to close. This mechanism prevents unintentional operations during wireline activities.

Constructed from durable materials such as 4140 L-80, 9 Cr, 13 Cr, and Incoloy 925, the SLA Sliding Sleeve is built to withstand harsh conditions. Standard EUE threads are available, with premium threading options upon request.

Why Choose the SLA Sliding Sleeve?

The Model SLA Sliding Sleeve is a cost-effective solution for wells requiring basic flow control. Its economical design, high ID clearance, and H2S readiness make it a practical choice for optimizing production while maintaining simplicity and reliability.
