A system and method for a fully-integrated flow control module (FI-FCM) in a hydrocarbon reservoir is disclosed. The FI-FCM is a unibody structure or a single-piece machined body having a flow meter integrated to the unibody structure. A choke is to be associated within a provision of the FI-FCM that also has an entry flow path for reservoir fluid and an exit flow path for the reservoir fluid. The entry flow path and the exit flow path inside the unibody structure or the single-piece machined body. Fluid communication is enabled between the flow meter, which is upstream relative to the choke, and an entry flow path. The choke is to control flow between the entry flow path and the exit flow path.

A drilling system includes a choke valve system in fluid communication with a wellbore via a fluid return line. The choke valve system is configured to receive a return fluid from the wellbore. The choke valve system includes a choke valve through which the return fluid flows and a valve position sensor configured to determine a position of the choke valve. The drilling system further includes a controller in signal communication with the valve position sensor. The controller is programmed to determine a flow rate of the return fluid through the fluid return line based on the determined position of the choke valve. The controller is further programmed to adjust the position of the choke valve in response to the determined flow rate of the return fluid.

A wet Christmas tree (WCT) is segmented into a lower safety module containing safety valves and an upper multifunctional module for controlling the flow and/or pumping and/or subsea processing. The WCT can be applied to completion systems using completion mode with tubing heads or directly on the wellhead. The modular WCT can be used in oil and gas production well applications or injection of water and/or gases in subsea fields in shallow water to deep water.

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to an apparatus, a system and a process for regulating a wellhead control mechanism. The apparatus is configured to control actuation of a wellhead control mechanism by moving a moveable body of the apparatus between a first position and a second position. When the apparatus is in the first position a valve actuator is actuatable and when the apparatus is in the second position the valve actuator is physically interfered from actuating. When the apparatus is in the second position, the wellhead control mechanism cannot be actuated and is held in either an open, a partially open or a closed position. Other embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a system that directly controls actuation of a wellhead actuation mechanism.

Additionally, a system may directly control an actuation of a wellhead actuation mechanism.

Systems and methods for generating and a controller for controlling generation of geothermal power in an organic Rankine cycle (ORC) operation in the vicinity of a wellhead during hydrocarbon production to thereby supply electrical power to one or more of in-field operational equipment, a grid power structure, and an energy storage device. In an embodiment, during hydrocarbon production, a temperature of a flow of wellhead fluid from the wellhead or working fluid may be determined. If the temperature is above a vaporous phase change threshold of the working fluid, heat exchanger valves may be opened to divert flow of wellhead fluid to heat exchangers to facilitate heat transfer from the flow of wellhead fluid to working fluid through the heat exchangers, thereby to cause the working fluid to change from a liquid to vapor, the vapor to cause a generator to generate electrical power via rotation of an expander.

An automated sand dump system for oil and gas wells is provided that uses sensed parameters to determine and effective sand level within a sand trap. When the control system determines that the effective sand level reaches a predetermined level, an automated dump sequence is executed.

A method may include monitoring an operation or a state of one or more subsystems of a hydraulic fracturing system. The hydraulic fracturing system may include one or more fracturing rigs, one or more blending equipment, and one or more power sources electrically connected to a first subset of the one or more fracturing rigs, or one or more fuel sources fluidly connected to a second subset of the one or more fracturing rigs. The hydraulic fracturing system may further include one or more missile valves, one or more zipper piping and zipper valve sets, one or more well head valves, and one or more well heads. The method may further include controlling, based on monitoring the operation or the state, the one or more subsystems within operating limits or based on operating expectations to cause or prevent an occurrence of one or more well integrity-related events.

A wellhead system includes a wellhead, a fluid line extending from the wellhead, a branch line fluidly connected to the fluid line at an inlet and at an outlet, an ejector device arranged on the branch line, a tank fluidly connected by a tank fluid line to the ejector device, and a pressure control valve arranged on the branch line upstream of the ejector device. The ejector device is configured to produce a mixture that includes the fluid from the wellhead flowing in the branch fluid line with a chemical flowing the tank fluid line. The ejector device is also configured to discharge the mixture downstream of the ejector device. The pressure control valve is configured to control the flow of a fluid entering the ejector device.
