Landing Nipples and Lock Mandrels

This section describes Halliburton’s landing nipples and


lock mandrels, as well as lock mandrels for wells without
Fishing Neck
landing nipples.

Selective by Running Tool


Expander Mandrel
The Halliburton landing nipples and lock mandrels that
are selective by running tool consist of Otis® X® and R®
series landing nipples and lock mandrels. The Otis XN® Double-Acting
Spring
and RN® no-go landing nipples and no-go lock mandrels
are also available.

Otis X and R Landing Nipples and Lock Mandrels Locking Key


Halliburton’s Otis X and R landing nipples are run into the
well on the completion tubing to provide a specific landing
location for subsurface flow control equipment. The Packing
HAL14001

HAL14002
common internal profiles of these landing nipples make
them universal. The Otis X landing nipple is used in standard
weight tubing. The Otis R landing nipple is typically used
with heavyweight tubing. Otis® X® Landing Nipple and
Lock Mandrel
The completion can have as many selective nipples with
the same ID in any sequence as desired on the tubing
string. This versatility results in an unlimited number of
positions for setting and locking subsurface flow controls.
The flow control, which is attached to the required Otis X
or R lock mandrel, is run in the well via the selective
running tool on slickline.

The slickline operator using the selective running tool can set
the flow control in any one of the landing nipples at the
desired depth. If this location is unsatisfactory or if well
conditions change, the flow control may be moved up or
down the tubing string to another nipple location. These
operations can be done by slickline under pressure without
killing the well.

Otis XN and RN No-Go Landing Nipples


and Lock Mandrels
This equipment is designed for use in single nipple
installations or as the bottom nipple in a series of Otis X or
R landing nipples. These landing nipples have the same
HAL8484

HAL8485

packing bore ID for a particular tubing size and weight.


Otis X and XN landing nipples are designed for use with
standard weight tubing. Otis R and RN landing nipples are Otis® R® Landing Nipple
designed for use with heavyweight tubing. and Lock Mandrel
(The N designates no-go nipples.)

Full Bore Landing Nipple and Lock Mandrel System
Halliburton’s FBN® full bore landing nipple and lock
mandrel system allows an indefinite number of identical
landing nipples to be installed in a tubing string. The FBN
lock mandrel can be selectively set in any one of its Fishing Neck
associated landing nipples and when locked in place, will
withstand a differential pressure of up to 10,000 psi
(690 bar) from either direction.
Full Bore Nipple
The lock mandrel’s expanding seal element and the landing Expandable Element
nipple’s full-opening bore allow the lock to be run through
any number of profiles before reaching the intended depth Double-Acting Spring
without the tendency to “hang up” in the higher profiles. No-Go Locking Keys
This feature is particularly significant for large tubing and
highly deviated well applications in which conventional
selective locks will preset in higher profiles because of the
interference fit packing.

Applications
• Monobore well completions
Equalizing Sub
• Wells/fields/conditions in which problems exist for
interference-type seals
HAL8238

Plug Cap
• High-angle/horizontal wells

Features FBN® Full Bore Landing Nipple and


Lock Mandrel System
• Pressure ratings up to 10,000 psi (690 bar)
• Seals protected during installation and retrieval of
the lock
• Can be run and retrieved on slickline or coiled tubing

Wellhead Plugs and Back Pressure Valves

SRP Wellhead Plugs


Halliburton’s SRP plug system is designed primarily for use
in horizontal subsea trees. Its compact size allows the tree to
be shorter, allowing smaller, less costly wellhead equipment.
The top no-go design provides a positive locating means to
simplify running procedures and eliminate misruns. Because
the SRP plug is a dedicated wellhead plug, it can be used for
any tree or tubing hanger plugging application.

SRP Wellhead Back Pressure Valves


The SRP wellhead back pressure valve provides pump-in well

kill capability while providing complete well control. It
features the same compact design and multiple seal back-up
available in the SRP wellhead plug. A test prong is also
available to allow testing of the hanger and tree from above. SRP Wellhead Plug
The SRP back pressure valve incorporates two equalizing
methods and cannot be released prior to full equalization of
pressure. Both the SRP wellhead back pressure valve and the
SRP wellhead plug utilize the same service tools for running
and retrieving.

SSP Wellhead Plugs


Halliburton SSP wellhead plugs feature a primary metal-to-
metal seal and a composite packing stack. These plugs are
typically rated for 10,000 psi (15,000 psi test) pressures from
above and below. Halliburton wellhead plug features

engineered composite material (ECM) available only from
Halliburton. DURATEF ECM is so advanced that
temperature and pressure ranges for testing have been
expanded dramatically, resulting in a new specification for
sleeves. During testing, DuraSleeve devices were repeatedly
opened against 5,000 psi (345 bar) differential pressure with
no seal damage.

Zonemaster™ Reservoir Access Mandrel System
The Zonemaster™ reservoir access mandrel system provides
the ability to control inflow or injection for any interval in a
well. When run with isolation packers, the Zonemaster
mandrels provide a positive and reliable method to shut off
well segments. The Zonemaster system consists of two
separate components. The first is the reservoir access
mandrel. It is generally run as part of the tubing string or
liner and is used as the inflow point into the production
tubing. The isolation sleeve can be installed or retrieved
depending on whether the adjacent interval should be
producing or shut off.

The Zonemaster system utilizes patented “crimp seal”


technology which allows for a seamless mandrel while
providing maximum ID through the isolation sleeve.

Operations
The Zonemaster sleeve is generally pre-installed in the
mandrel before running in the well. This allows for pressure
setting of hydraulic-set packers or for pressure testing the
tubing string during the completion. The isolation sleeves are
then removed and the mandrel is left open or the blanking
sleeves are replaced with flow control sleeves (chokes). If
changes are required during the producing life of the well,
the isolation sleeves can be pulled and replaced as needed.
Each time the sleeves are pulled, the seals can be redressed.

The isolation sleeves utilize a no-go positive positioning


system to provide for certainty during installation. They are
generally installed using wireline in vertical wells and can be
installed using either coiled tubing or sucker rods in
horizontal wells.

Autofill Sub
The autofill sub is run above the Mirage® or Anvil® plug
when automatic filling of the tubing is required. The unique
bladder design of the fill sub allows debris-laden annulus
fluids to enter the tubing, while providing a reliable seal from
the tubing side.

The tubing can be tested any number of times, providing the


shear pressure of the lockout piston is not exceeded. Once the
lockout pins are sheared resulting from tubing pressure, the
piston drives the ports in the isolation sleeve past the o-rings,
locking the fill sub out of service. A simple interference fit
retains the fill sub in the locked-out condition. Lockout Shear

FS1 Fluid Loss Control Device
The FS1 fluid loss control device is designed to provide a
means of isolating the formation below the uppermost
gravel-pack packer before the upper completion has been
run.

The FS1 fluid loss control device provides a reliable solution


with benefits that include:

• Preventing fluid loss to formations after completing


initial gravel pack operations
• Isolating formations during up-hole operations through
the life of the well
• Reducing costs on subsea or deep wells with
interventionless technology
• Acting as a well suspension device

The closure device is a proven, high-performance ball


mechanism that provides a positive bi-directional seal.
The ball design eliminates the need for excessive movement
within the mechanism. The ball is held stationary from
longitudinal movement and no axial movement is required
to open and close, enhancing its operation in debris-laden
environments.

The optimum placement of the FS1 fluid loss control device


is below the gravel pack or liner hanger assembly. Washpipe,
located on the bottom of the service tool, is extended across
the valve. A collet shifting tool is attached to the end of the
washpipe, which on retrieval closes the valve, immediately
isolating the formation and allowing in-flow or positive
pressure-testing above the ball. Remote actuation is then
used to open the valve after upper completion installation.

LV4 Lubricator Valves
The LV4 dual line operated lubricator valve is a high-
performance tubing-retrievable downhole lubricator system.
The valve provides a means of isolating well pressure below
or above in tubing strings where it has been deployed.
Application of hydraulic pressure to the tool via dual control
lines will operate the valve open or closed.

The use of premium tubing connections eliminates the


need for any elastomeric seals within the outer housing.
There is no requirement to employ crush ring connections,
which may be susceptible to tubing-induced torque and
tensile load fluctuation.

The ball has been designed to hold pressure from above and
below the ball mechanism to enable a full surface and
downhole equipment integrity test.

Applications
• Provides a means of isolating well pressure below or
above in tubing strings where it has been deployed
• Allows deployment of long length assemblies without
killing the well
• TCP guns via coiled tubing

Operation
HAL22101

TFL service refers to a method of conducting downhole


maintenance using hydraulic pressure and flow to provide
the force required for tool movement and manipulation. If Single-Zone
Dual-String
the wellhead is located on a sea bed, the flowline is used to Through-Flowline
provide access for the service tools.

The TFL service system requires a circulation path going


from a central service station into a well as deeply as possible,
through a communication port, and then returning to the
service station. This path may be through the tubing/casing
annulus, dual tubing strings, or tubing side string in single-
or multiple-zone completions.

Subsurface Service Tools

Slickline Service Tools


Otis® designed and manufactured slickline service tools have
been the benchmark for the industry and are a requirement
for all toolboxes worldwide. Known for dependable Wireline Socket
performance and low maintenance costs, these service tools
can help reduce your total operating costs. As the original
equipment manufacturer (OEM), Halliburton continues to
provide high-quality slickline service tools.

Stem
Slickline Toolstring
Wireline Toolstring

HAL8501
A wireline toolstring is attached to the wireline to furnish the
mechanical force necessary for setting, pulling, or servicing
subsurface equipment under pressure without killing the Otis® Rope Socket
well. Toolstrings are available in various ODs and
component lengths designed to be compatible with various
tubing sizes.

Otis® Rope Sockets


Otis rope sockets provide a means for connecting the
wireline to the toolstring. The wireline is tied around a disk
or dart in the socket to achieve a firm connection.

Otis Stems
Otis stems are used as weight to overcome stuffing-box
packing friction and well pressure on the cross-sectional area
Jars
of the wireline. The stem can also transmit force either
upward or downward to set or retrieve subsurface controls.
Size and weight of the stem are determined by the impact
force required and the size of the subsurface control to be run
or pulled. For normal conditions, 5 ft of 1 1/2-in. OD stem is
made up by combining 2-, 3-, or 5-ft (0.61, 0.91, 1.22 m) Knuckle Joint

Otis® Accelerators
Otis® accelerators are used with and just above hydraulic jars
for shallow, weighty jarring. Accelerators help maintain
constant pull as the hydraulic jars begin to open. The
accelerator inhibits pulling the wireline out of the wireline
socket at these shallow depths.
Otis Knuckle Joints
Otis knuckle joints have a special ball and socket design,
allowing angular movement between the jars and the
running or pulling tool to help align them with the tubing.
Knuckle joints are important if the tubing is corkscrewed and
when wireline work is done in a directional hole. In these
conditions, joints are used at every connection in the
toolstring. Where stem and jars will not align or move freely,

HAL8503

HAL8504
tool operation may be impossible; however, the knuckle joint
inhibits the wireline tools from hanging up.
Otis® Knuckle Joint Otis® Blind Box
Otis Jars
Otis jars are available in mechanical and hydraulic types.
With a set of mechanical jars below the stem, the weight of
the jars and stem can be used to jar up or down by pulling
and releasing the wireline. A Halliburton wireline specialist
can easily feel the jars and manipulate the wireline. Hydraulic
jars are designed to provide jarring action in wells in which it
is difficult to obtain good jarring action with mechanical jars.
Hydraulic jars, which allow an upward impact only, are
usually run just above the regular mechanical jars. They
require careful maintenance for maximum use in the
toolstring. Jar operation is monitored by a weight indicator.
Otis B Blind Box
Otis B blind box serves as the impact point when downward
jarring operations are required.

Otis® Quick Connect Toolstring Connection
Before its extensive field history, the Otis® quick connect was
thoroughly tested in both the engineering laboratory and the
Halliburton test well in Carrollton, Texas. During the design
proving phase, a 1 1/2-in. (38.1 cm) Otis quick connect was
jarred through 50,000 cycles at impact loads of 9,000 to
10,000 lb (4082.33 to 4535.92 kg) in both directions. Tensile
testing on the tool after jarring revealed the Otis quick
connect had retained full strength throughout the operation.

Now Halliburton toolstring components and wireline service


tools are available with integral Otis quick connects.

Features
• Spacing of load-bearing shoulders will not allow
coupling to connect until full engagement of all
shoulders are in place.
• Self-washing feature minimizes sand buildup in the
locking mechanism.
• Designed for manual operation; no special tools required

Benefits
• Otis quick connect design ensures proper toolstring
make-up.
• Reliable disconnect, even in sandy environment
• Safe assembly/disassembly on location; no special tools
required
• Faster turnaround on location minimizes job time.

Otis P wireline grab is a fishing tool designed to extract
broken wireline or cable from the tubing or casing.

Otis Go-Devil
Otis go-devil is a slotted stem with a fishing neck. Should the
tool become stuck, the go-devil can be attached to the
slickline via a small strip of metal pinned in the slot to keep
the wireline from coming out. The go-devil is dropped from
surface and will slide down the wire until it hits a restriction
or the top of the rope socket. The go-devil will cut the
slickline at that point, allowing the slickline to be retrieved.
Its use is usually limited to fishing operations where the
wireline socket is inaccessible and the line must be cut. Otis
go-devils designed to cut the wireline at the wireline socket

circulating through a Sliding Side-Door® circulating device
or producing a zone above the lowermost zone. Designed to
hold pressure from above only by employing the use of a
HAL8524

drop valve equalizing assembly, the non-selective test tools


land in no-go landing nipples with compatible packing
bores. When landed in the landing nipple, pressure from Otis® Non-Selective
above is sealed by the drop, seal ring, and v-packing. In order Test Tool
to retrieve by wireline, the drop is moved off seat with a
pulling tool. This equalizes the pressure across the test tool,
allowing it to be retrieved.

Benefits
• Ease of running, setting, and retrieving
• No-go OD on bottom of tool for positive location in
landing nipple
• May be pumped into the well
• Designed for high-pressure ratings

Positioning Tools
Otis® BO Selective Positioning Tools
Otis® BO selective positioning tools are used to move the
inner sleeve to its open or closed position in Sliding
Side-Door® circulating devices.

Note: The Otis B selective positioning tool is not to be used


for shifting Otis XXO or RRO surface-controlled safety valve
nipples. For these nipples, use the Otis XL or RL shifting tool.

The positioning tool engages the recess in the upper


(or lower) end of the inner sleeve to permit the sleeve to be
shifted by a jarring action. The tool is designed to release
itself only after the sleeve reaches its fully open or closed
position. This automatic-releasing feature incorporates a
releasing profile on the key itself that acts to compress the key
spring and release the positioning tool. A shear pin is an
added feature designed to release the tool in the event well
conditions make it impossible to shift the sleeve.

A set of positive keys is available for this tool to permit


upward movement of the inner sleeve of one among several
Sliding Side-Door circulating devices in one wellbore. These
keys do not have a releasing profile. The positioning tool pin
must be sheared to release.

Note: The Otis BO selective positioning tool will not pass


through position number 1 of Otis S landing nipples.

Otis BO selective positioning tools are designed to selectively


position Sliding Side-Door inner sleeves only to the down

DPU® Downhole Power Unit
The Halliburton DPU® downhole
power unit is an electro-mechanical
device that is designed to produce a
linear force for setting (or pulling)
wellbore tools such as monolocks,
bridge plugs, or packers. The slickline
version of the DPU unit uses batteries
to provide the energy to the motor and
timing circuits. An electric line version
without the timer, circuits, and
batteries is also available.

Note: Both slickline and e-line DPU


units include conversion kits to allow
the use of existing Baker setting adapter
kits.

The DPU unit and the attached


subsurface device are run into the well
on slickline or on braided line to the
desired setting depth. The timer
initiates the operation. The setting
motion is gradual and controlled
(about 0.7 in./min) allowing the sealing
element to conform against the casing/
tubing wall and the slips to fully engage.
When the sealing element is sufficiently
compressed, and the setting force is
reached, the DPU unit shears loose
from the subsurface device and is free
for removal from the well.

CollarTrak® Slickline Collar Locator
The Halliburton CollarTrak® slickline collar locator consists
of a standard electric line collar locator, an electronic sub-
assembly, and a magnet/drag sub-assembly. When the collar
locator senses a tubing or casing collar, it signals the
electronic sub-assembly, which instantaneously activates
magnets in the magnet/drag assembly. The magnets increase
frictional engagement to the pipe wall, creating a brief but
significant increase in line tension.

Halliburton's Advanced Measurement System (AMS) detects


the tension increase and sends the data signals to the data/job
logger, which records it as a well-defined spike on the log.

The Advanced Measurement System automatically and


continuously compensates for line stretch, assuring
