FLOW PREVENTER FOR OIL WELLS Filed April 8, 1957 Yam A 6 l 3 cm LLJ 6% Patented Apr. 19, 1938 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
5 Claims.
This invention relates to devices for preventing the flow of oil from wells, when for any reason it is necessary to withdraw the well tubing which is frequently necessary a number of times annually.
The device is of that type known as the pump down flow preventers which are forced down into the well usually by hydraulic pressure from above.
During the operation of oil wells it is necessary to make certain repairs in the tubing, or to withdraw the tubing'in which case the flow of oil from below must bestopped. Devices have been heretofore devised for this purpose, but so far as known they have not operated with that certainty which is necessary in order to insure the complete cut off of oil from the well, either when the tubing is Withdrawn, or there is a leakage through the tubing. With a view to providing a device which will be thoroughly reliable in action to prevent the blowout of oil from the pressure below, my invention includes as a valuable feature a device which, when the pumping pressure is relieved, will reliably act under the oil pressure from below to instantly stop the flow from the well regardless of the amount of pressure therein.
The device includes novel features of construction which are so designed as to accomplish the purposes above specified, as well as a simplified arrangement of parts, the device being capable of production in quantities at a relatively low cost by reason of the simplicity of its several elements.
In the accompanying drawing, illustrating a device which embodies the invention:-
Fig. l is a view in elevation of the flow pre venter in a well tubing,
Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view, and
Fig. 3 is a transverse section on the line 33 of Fig. 2.
The device comprises a mandrel l which extends throughout the length of the flow preventer, and is herein shown as provided at its opposite ends with swab rubbers or packing rings 3, 4, 5 and B. The swab rubbers 3, 4 at the upper end of the mandrel are spaced apart by a spool l, and the inner rubber 4 has bearing against a washer B, fastened to the mandrel l while the outer rubher 3 is held between said spool and a nut 9 in threaded engagement with a thread formed at the upper extremity of the mandrel and held against accidental displacement by a lock nut i U.
The two swab rubbers 5, 6 at the lower end of the mandrel are similarly confined between a washer l I, setting against a shoulder formed by a tapering enlargement l2 of the mandrel l, a nut l3, and lock nut M, in threaded engagement with a screw thread at the lower terminal of the mandrel serving as securing means for the swab rubbers 5, 6, the latter being spaced apart by a spool l5.
A packer sleeve I6 is provided with a longitudinal bore which fits over the enlarged tapering portion l2 of the mandrel and extends upwardly a substantial distance thereon, provided at its upper terminal with a metal ferrule or sleeve portion H. A freely movable conical sleeve 18 is provided with a bore to receive that portion of the mandrel above the packer sleeve 16, the upper end of the metallic sleeve l8 terminating a suitable distance below the washer 8, whereby considerable amount of play of the sleeve i8 is permitted in a vertical direction along the mandrel between the washer 8 and the upper end portion of the packer sleeve I 6.
Surrounding the sleeve I8 is a plurality of slips 2B which are herein shown as integrally formed with a collar 2|, the slips. being separated from each other by slight spaces, as shown, and leaf springs 22 extend rigidly from the collar 2! and have their outer end portions bearing against the slips to normally hold the latter contracted and out of gripping engagement with the interior of the well tubing, which is indicated by the numeral 25. The slips 20 are, as usual, formed with annular teeth 26 in order that said slips may, when properly spread, grippingly engage the interior of the tubing so as to prevent the flow preventer from being blown outwardly by the pressure from within the well, after the pressure of the pumping fluid from above has been relieved, or stopped. For the purpose of properly spreading the slips, their interior walls are tapered from a large bore to a smaller diameter of bore in an upward direction, as will be clear from Fig. 2 of the drawing, such tapering interior surface of the slips efiecting through engagement with the tapered surface of the sleeve I8 when the latter moves upwardly relatively to the slips, due to the pressure from below, a spreading movement of the slips outwardly, whereby they engage the well tubing to thereby arrest outward movement of the flow preventer as an entirety. At all other times than when the pressure from the well below prevails over the pressure from above, due to the pumping of the fluid downwardly, the slips will be out of wedging engagement with the surface of the sleeve l8, and the springs 22 will effect a contraction of the slips, thereby leaving the flow preventer freedom of movement in a downward direction. This occurs while the pump is operating to force the. fluid against the flow preventer to ill cause it to move downwardly in the well to that point where it is desired to shut off the well flow from the tubing.
The packer sleeve l6 which is shown in Fig. 1 as having its upper end portion slightly separated from the lower end of the tapered sleeve I8, is so arranged that when the downward flow of the pumped fluid ceases the pressure from below being then effective will act upon the two swab rubbers 5, 6 which normally fit fairly tightly within the tubing, and through the pressure upon these swab rubbers two operations are performed. The upward pressure from the well acting upon the swab rubbers 5, 6, will first move the mandrel upwardly, whereupon engagement between the conical surface I2 and the packer sleeve l6 will lift the latter, causing it to engage and move upwardly the sleeve 58. This operation will spread the slips, causing them to effectually grip the interior of the tubing, and immediately thereafter the pressure from the well will be sufilcient to effect relative movement of the mandrel and the packer sleeve l6, spreading the latter and causing it to engage the interior of the tubing, and stop any upward flow of oil therebeyond.
It will be observed that during the operation of the oil pressure from the well the swab rubbers 5, 6 act as pistons, and effectually permit the pressure to not only spread the slips against the tubing to arrest movement of the fiow preventer, but additionally, will spread the packer sleeve 16, thereby effecting an absolutely liquid tight joint, preventing any flow beyond the flow preventer.
It is to be noted that when the flow preventer is in the position shown in Fig. 2 where the enlarged or conical portions on the mandrel l and sleeve 18 have effected a distention of the slips 29 to engage the inner wall of the tubing and secure the fiow preventer in position, and to spread the packer sleeve 15, due to the action of the tapering enlargement I2, a space exists between the upper end of the sleeve l8 and the washer 8. Accordingly, when it is desired to return the parts of the device to their original position, as shown in Fig. l, and where the flow preventer is loose in the well. tubing, such position of the parts may be accomplished by an application of the hydraulic pressure from the pump, such pressure acting upon the swab rubbers 3, 4 to cause a downward movement of the mandrel, washer 8 then impacting against the upper end of sleeve 18 to release the slips from gripping engagement with the tubing, and the tapering or conical portion [2 of the mandrel passing then below and out of spreading relation with the packer sleeve I6, whereby the latter again becomes loose in the tubing as in the original position of the parts, shown in Fig. 1.
It will thus be seen that the device is entirely controllable by the pressures, either from above to force the flow preventer down into the well locating it at the desired position to stop the fiow of oil, or to loosen the device and detach it from engagement with the inner surface of the tubing, and likewise the pressure from the well is effective in promptly causing a gripping engagement between the flow preventer and the tubing when the slips are spread, followed promptly by an expansion of the packer sleeve, and that these two functions are performed in rapid succession. In this connection it will be noted that the first movement upward of the mandrel will cause engagement between the ferrule l1 and the sleeve 18, which latter is moved upwardly to spread the slips as soon as the packer sleeve is lifted by the mandrel, due to the preliminary engagement between these parts when the tapered portion l2 of the mandrel enters the packer sleeve, and that then the latter is instrumental in causing the sleeve 18 to spread the slips, the arresting of the movement of the sleeve, due to the gripping engagement of the slips with the tubing, resulting in the movement of the packer sleeve being stopped by contact of its upper end with the enlarged base portion of the sleeve [8. Movement thereafter of the mandrel will spread the packer sleeve against the tubing and complete the operation of the device as a means for stopping positively the outward flow from the well.
