<p>A method and associated system for setting downhole control pressure. A method of setting a downhole control pressure includes the steps of: installing a pressure control system with a pressure source; connecting a proximal end of a line to the pressure source and a distal end to a well tool; and calibrating the system by applying an overshoot pressure to the proximal end, then sensing a settled pressure in the proximal end resulting from the overshoot pressure, and determining a mathematical relationship between the overshoot and settled pressures. A system for setting a downhole control pressure includes a pressure source, a pressure limiter and an interface for applying pressure to a proximal end of a control line and a well tool connected to a distal end of the control line. The well tool is operated in response to a predetermined settled pressure achieved at the distal end in response to an overshoot pressure being applied to the proximal end and the pressure limiter limiting application of pressure from the pressure source to the proximal end to the overshoot pressure.</p> |
