Abstract

A method to release a control line for a safety valve removably disposed in a nipple (9) of a wellbore production tubing, comprises the steps of : - removing the safety valve from the nipple; - setting into the nipple a sealing tool (41) which sealingly connects the control line (10) and a mini tubing (42) running down into the production tubing; - increasing the pressure of a fluid into the mini tubing to cause fluid to flow into the control line through the sealing tool.
