Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 17078-4 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 67, Materials, equipment and offshore structures
for petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas industries, Subcommittee SC 4, Drilling and production
equipment.
ISO 17078 consists of the following parts, under the general title Petroleum and natural gas industries —
Drilling and production equipment:
⎯ Part 1: Side-pocket mandrels
⎯ Part 2: Flow-control devices for side-pocket mandrels
⎯ Part 3: Running tools, pulling tools and kick-over tools and latches for side-pocket mandrels

ISO 17078-4:2010(E)
Introduction
This part of ISO 17078 has been developed by users/purchasers and suppliers/manufacturers of subsurface
side-pocket mandrels, flow-control devices used in side-pocket mandrels (hereafter called flow-control
devices), and associated latches and installation tools that are used in conjunction with side-pocket mandrel
flow-control devices. This equipment is intended for use in the worldwide petroleum and natural gas industry.
This part of ISO 17078 is intended to provide supporting information, guidelines and practices to all parties
who are involved in the specification, selection, manufacture, testing and use of side-pocket mandrels,
flow-control devices and associated latches and installation tools.
In addition to this part of ISO 17078, ISO 17078-1 provides requirements for side-pocket mandrels used in the
petroleum and natural gas industry. ISO 17078-2 provides requirements for flow-control devices. And,
ISO 17078-3 provides requirements for latches and installation tools that are used in conjunction with
side-pocket mandrel flow-control devices. Other pertinent side-pocket mandrel-related information can be
found in API standards listed in the bibliography.
It is necessary that users of this part of ISO 17078 be aware that requirements above those outlined in this
part of ISO 17078 can be needed for individual applications. This part of ISO 17078 is not intended to inhibit a
supplier/manufacturer from offering, or the user/purchaser from accepting, alternative equipment or
engineering solutions. This can be particularly applicable where there is innovative or developing technology.
Where an alternative is offered, it is the responsibility of the supplier/manufacturer to identify any variations
from this part of ISO 17078 and provide details.
