A well unloading valve for a petrochemical well tubing comprising a flow passage connecting an annulus outside the tubing with the inside of the tubing; a lock-out sleeve for selectively closing the flow passage, wherein the lock-out sleeve can be moved from an open to a closed position by means of hydraulic pressure within the tubing; an electrically activated motor module for moving a seal, wherein the seal selectively opens a hydraulic connection from the inside of tubing to the lock-out sleeve for moving the lock-out sleeve hydraulically from the open to the closed position; and a check valve within the flow passage for allowing a flow from the annulus into the tubing and for blocking a flow from the tubing into the annulus. Further a method for unloading a petrochemical well tubing is claimed.
