REMEMBER...”SAFETY FIRST, EVERY TIME”
On location inspection:
• Open all rams and inspect the inner seals are correct for the cable being ran.
• Inspect the correct orientation for the outer seals, upper ram face up, lower face down
when being used for a braidedline application.
• Inspect the Ram Guides are correct for the cable being ran.
• Open and close all rams Hydraulicly and manually back them up.
• Open and close the equailizing assembly.
• Check inspection band to ensure the equipment is in current certification and rating for
the operation.
• Follow the Pre Job pressure testing guidelines on page 5 & 6

Operation:
• Closing Wireline Valve rams is achieved by rotating the Lockout Pin “T” Handles
clockwise in an even sequence until Inner Seals butt together internally at the center of
the inner bore.
• With the Equalizing Valve or By Pass Plug in the closed position, the outer ram seals
will complete the seal in the ram body housing.
• Pressure can now be bled from the lubricator allowing it to be disconnected, and
hoisted so necessary surface operations can be completed.
• Once the lubricator is reconnected to the top of the Wireline Valve and lubricator bleed
off valves closed, pressure can be equalized back to the lubricator from the lower side
of the rams by opening the valve seat or Bypass Plug of the equalizing assembly.
• The Equalizing Assembly is located on the side of the main Body, with two Bleed Off
Ports and located 90o from ram housings. Using an Allen wrench to open the valve
seat equalizing assembly allows pressure to be returned to the lubricator from the
wellbore with rams closed.
• The Wireline Valve rams can now be opened by rotating Lockout Pin “T” Handles
counter clockwise, resuming wireline operation.
Precautions:
• For hydraulic wireline valve always have the bridals on the opposite side of the wire, in
case there is a need to fix or replace any items, this way the operator will not be in the
line of the wire.
• Allways have the wireline valve equalizing assembly on the opposite side of the wire, in
case there is a need to equalize this way the operator will not be in the line of the wire.
• Never Open closed wireline valves without opening the equilization system.

Pressure Testing Guidelines for a Slickline Wireline Valve.
• Confirm that all personnel are deemed competent to perform the task.
• Document all changes, configurations and repairs made to the equipment and keep
copies in the maintainence files.
• Sign off completed pre-job inspection checklist.
• Place signs and barriers warning all personnel of the defined test area.
• Ensure clear radio communication between the controller of the Pressure Test Unit
(PTU) and the supervisor in charge of the test.
• Ensure all personnel without radio communication are in a clear line of visibility.
• Ensure constant communication between the PTU operator and the supervisor.
Pressure Testing Guidelines for Slickline Wireline Valve dressed with Blind Ram Seals.
• Install the Wireline Valve and connect bridals and hoses to Wireline Valve panel/hand
pump.
• Make an announcement for pressure testing, so everyone in the area is aware of the
danger.
• Open the equalizing port.
• Partially close Blind rams, leaving enough gap to allow test fluid overflow above the
rams to expel any air in the system.
• Fill with test fluid.
• Cease pumping fluid when the fluid is level with the blind rams.
• Close the blind rams and apply the recommended ram pressure as per OEM.
• Instruct the Pressure Pump operator to pump slowly and wait for fluid to overflow over
the blind ram via equalization port or manifold if the test is being done with the
lubricator in situ.
• Stop pump operator and close equalization ports.
• Perform initial low pressure test. The test is a 5 minute, 300 psi test to ensure the
integrity of the pressure test lines etc.
• Perform the high pressure test as per companies pressure test procedure, typically
MWHP x 1.5 of the job the equipment is being sent too.
• Pressure up slowly in stages to the required test pressure. Ensure this figure does not
exceed the recommended working pressure of the equipment
• Test duration is down to the individual customer discretion.
• On completion of a successful blind ram test, bleed pressure back to zero via PTU.
• Open equalization ports (Slowley) on Wireline Valve to dispel any residual low
pressure.
• Open the Wireline Valve blind ram.
• Close the equalization ports and continue to the next step.

operational exposure, this may increase at the users discretion.
• All Pressure Control Equipment must be maintained at regular intervals and re
certified at least once per year with an accurate record of all essential and non-
essential maintenance.
• The yearly maintenance procedure should be implemented after any job that exposes
the Pressure Control Equipment to conditions, such as accidental drops, corrosive
fluids, long durations in situ on H2S or CO2.
• An annual Pressure Test should be performed.
• After any integral part is removed or replaced that may compromise the integrity of the
Wireline Valve.
