COIL TUBING DEPLOYMENT:

A gauge run is recommended prior to running in hole to avoid potential

hazard and eventual pre-set while hitting some debris or a restriction
in the well. It is critical to monitor at all time the weight while
running on coil tubing as load generated against a restriction are
higher than with wireline. Every so often (to be defined with the
operator) it is recommended as a best practice to record the pick up
and slack off weight when running in hole.

The Hydraulic Setting Tool is connected to the bridge plug through a

setting sleeve identical as the setting sleeve for the Baker #10 or
Baker #20 wireline setting tool.

Procedures:
1. Assemble the setting sleeve, the plug and the tool as per
instructions
a. Tighten the Copperhead Plug setting sleeve onto the
setting tool.
b. Screw the adapter mandrel into the Copperhead Plug
firmly hand tighten
c. Guide the plug and adapter mandrel into the setting
sleeve and into the setting tool(If using the 5.5
Copperhead a setting adapator must be attached to the
setting tool before attaching the setting mandral).
Rotate clockwise until the mandrel threads are fully
engaged. It is not necessary to use a pipe wrench when
tightening the adapter mandrel and plug into the setting
tool. Firmly hand tightened is sufficient.

2. Use cautious when lifting the equipment and confirm all will
go through the surface equipment without damages
a. Note: it is recommended to drift the surface equipment
prior to running in hole
b. Note: a drift run is recommended to the setting depth if
possible

2. Run in hole to depth while monitoring weight on string and

eventual fluid return or any unexpected pressure increase.
Running speeds should not exceed 100 ft/min in vertical or 80
ft/min in horizontal.

4. On depth, drop the setting ball through the string. The ball
can be pumped to bottom or not depending on deviation. The ball
is made of light material or from brass and will only free fall
inside fluid to about 60 degrees deviation, after that it will
required to be pumped
a. Note: if the ball required to be pumped, it is important
to note the total displacement and avoid pumping at more
than 1 bbl/min to land on the seat as to avoid excessive
pressure increase
 5. Once the ball lands the pressure will increase in the coil
tubing

6. Increase pressure to 200-300 PSI and monitor the pressure for

1 minute

7. Increase pressure more to open the by-pass (no signal usually

seen).

8. Slowly increase the pressure to the maximum pressure

(depending on plug) and monitor the weight on the coil tubing. It
is also possible to apply tension to limit maximum pressure in
the string.

9. At the maximum pressure the bolt between the plug and the
running tool will shear, sometimes it is required to increase the
pressure slightly (up to 500 PSI)

10. Once the bolt is sheared, pull the string 5 to 10 m while

maintaining pressure in the string, there should be sudden
pressure drop indicating that the piston is fully stroked.
Proceed then with a pressure test of the plug (pressure to be
defined depending on plug specifications, well data and coil
tubing surface equipment)
