Shale gas extraction involves horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing, which impose demanding conditions on equipment seals. FKM VITON FPM high pressure seals are ideal for meeting these operational challenges.
Shale drilling uses aggressive chemical fluids. FKM VITON FPM seals resist acids, solvents, and surfactants, ensuring stable performance during long fracturing cycles.
During shale gas extraction, pressures can exceed 15,000 psi. FKM VITON FPM seals provide reliable containment under extreme pressure surges.
Shale formations can expose seals to high bottom-hole temperatures. FKM seals maintain integrity in temperatures over 200°C without hardening or cracking.
Seals are designed to endure erosion caused by proppants in the fracturing fluid, maintaining sealing function over time.
FKM VITON FPM seals are available in multiple configurations, allowing for retrofitting into legacy shale gas equipment or integration with new systems.
High pressure FKM VITON FPM seals are essential for the efficiency and safety of shale gas drilling. Their chemical resistance, pressure resilience, and temperature endurance make them indispensable for this sector.
