Abstract
A system may include a production valve secured in a production fluid line of a downhole tubular. The production valve is configured to control flow through the production fluid line between a wellbore annulus and a central bore of the downhole tubular. The system may further include a pilot line extending at least to the production valve from the annulus. A flow restrictor disposed within the pilot line is configured to increase fluid pressure in the pilot line. Further, the system may include a solenoid valve secured within the pilot line and configured to actuate between an open state and a closed state in response to instructions from a controller. Pressure in the pilot line is configured to rise above an actuation threshold pressure configured to close the production valve in response to formation fluid flowing through the solenoid valve in the open state of the solenoid valve.
