Definitions

  • blowout preventer packing units have followed the principles described in U.S. Pat. No. 2,609,836 to Knox.
  • Such units incorporate like metal inserts equally spaced about the packer central axis, and embedded by an elastomeric body.
  • the material is anchored by insert webs as it produces vertical folds stretching radially inwardly to seal against the pipe.
  • the number of folds will equal the number of inserts, and they will be alike in circumferential contour.
  • the elastomeric material of the folds advancing toward the axis must at certain times and places stretch or extend as much as 350 to 400%.
  • the invention contemplates reducing the stress levels in the energized rubber or elastomeric pressure during its inward flow, by reducing deformation under pressure. As will appear, this is achieved in a broad sense by locating the insert webs with spacing from the central axis and from each other in such relation as to provide differential anchoring about the axis of circularly spaced portions of the elastomeric material subject to inward displacement, with resultant opening-up of rubber flow paths between the inserts.
  • the anchoring of the rubber by certain webs is closer to the central axis than anchoring of the material by other webs; i.e., webs effectively closer to and further from the axis may alternate about that axis.
  • the webs may begenerally equally spaced from the axis, but certain pairs of webs may have closer circular spacing about that axis than other pairs of webs.
  • Another object of the invention concerns the provision of differently formed or shaped end plates on the webs, and characterized as promoting or facilitating the sought advantages.
  • certain top and/or bottom plates on certain inserts are located to move closer to the central axis than other plates on other inserts, during radial constriction of the packer; further, the certain plates may be formed to interfit at 2 their inner ends as the packer constricts, and other plates may be shaped, as for example tapered, to approach engagement with opposite sides of the interfitting plates as the packer constricts.
  • a method aspect of the invention may involve the steps:
  • the invention contemplates the angling of facing sides of adjacent plates to form a space therebetwen which tapers away from the main body of packer material to minimize entrapment of and possible damage to such elastomeric material flowing into such space during packer constriction.
  • FIG. 1 is an elevation, partly in section, showing use of the new packer
  • FIG. 2 is an enlarged horizontal section, taken on lines 22 of FIG. 1, and showing the packer in open condition;
  • FIG. 3 is a vertical section on lines 3-3 of FIG. 2;
  • FIG. 4 is a view like FIG. 2, and showing the packer in partly closed condition
  • FIG. 5 is a vertical section on lines 5-5 of FIG. 4;
  • FIG. 6 is a view like FIG. 2, but showing the packer fully closed about a well pipe
  • FIG. 6a is a fragmentary view like FIG. 6;
  • FIG. 6b is an enlarged section on lines 6b6b of FIG. 6a;
  • FIG. 7 is a vertical section on lines 7-7 of FIG. 6;
  • FIG. 8 is a section on lines 8-8 of FIG. 3;
  • FIG. 9 is a perspective showing of two types of metallic inserts used in the packer of FIGS. 28;
  • FIGS. 10-12 are fragmentary plan view showings of a modified packer in open, partly closed and fully closed conditions, respectively;
  • FIGS. 13 and 14 are fragmentary plan view showings of two additional modified packers, in closed condi- FIGS. 18 and 19 are fragmentary plan view showings of yet another modified packer in open and fully closed positions, respectively;

  • FIGS. 23-25 are fragmentary plan view showings of still another modified packer, in open, partly closed and fully closed conditions, respectively;
  • FIGS. 2628 are fragmentary vertical sections through a modified packer in open, partly closed and fully closed conditions, respectively.
  • FIGS. 29 and 30 are plan views of further modified packers.
  • a blowout preventer includes a metallic housing 11, the lower most extent of which is flanged at 12 and bolted at 13 to well head casing flange 14 or other well head equipment.
  • THe housing contains a piston 15 movable upwardly in chamber 16 in response to fluid pressure exertion upwardly against piston face 17, for constricting an annular packer unit 18 via pressure exertion from piston cam surface 22 against packer exterior surface 23.
  • Surfaces 22 and 23 are frusto-conical and flared upwardly.
  • the packer when sufficiently radially inwardly displaced, seals off about a well pipe 19 shown extending axially vertically through the preventer 10; and in the absence of the pipe, the packer unit 18 will completely close off the vertical passage through the preventer, when the unit is sufficiently constricted by piston 15.
  • the packer Upon downward movement of the piston in response to fluid pressure exertion against face 24, the packer expands radially outwardly to the open position seen in FIGS. 1 and 2.
  • the piston annular surface 25 may have guided sliding engagement with housing cap bore 26, and that the packer unit is normally confined vertically under the housing cap lower interior surface 27.
  • the packer unit comprises metallic inserts generally circularly spaced about the longitudinal central axis of the unit, the inserts including webs that extend generally longitudinally; an annulus of elastomeric material extending about the packer axis and embedding the webs so that they anchor the material during inward compressive displacement or constriction of the packer; and the spacing of the webs from that axis and from each other is characterized by differential anchoring about the axis of circularly spaced portions of the elastomeric material subject to inward displacement about the axis.
  • differential anchoring facilitates differential inward flow or extrusion of circularly spaced portions of the elastomeric material, as will be seen, to the end that maximum stretching of the material is minimized and maximum stresses are correspondingly minimized.
  • Such material is designated at 34.
  • the metallic inserts include certain inserts having certain webs 31, and other inserts 32 having other webs 33, an the anchoring of the elastomeric material 34a by certain webs 31 is closer to the central axis 40 then the anchor ing of the material 34b by the other webs 33 as is clear from FIG. 3.
  • the thickness of the material 34a between the inner edge portions 35 of webs 31 and the packer bore 36 is less than the thickness of the material 34b between the inner edge portions 37 of webs 33 and the packer bore 36, in planes normal to axis 40; also, inner edge portions 35 of webs 31 are located, closer to axis 40 than inner edge portios 37 of webs 33, in planes normal to axis 40, and webs 31 alternate with webs 33 about axis 40, as is clear from FIG. 2.
  • the webs may additionally carry buttons 42 to provide additional surface to which the elastomeric material may be attached, for additional anchoring effect.
  • Such material may for example consist of synthetic or natural rubber.
  • the inserts also have plates integral with the webs, and circularly spaced about axis 40, certain plates on certain inserts located to move closer to axis 40 than other plates on other inserts during radially inward compressive displacement of the packer.
  • the top plates 44 on certain inserts 30 are located to move closer to axis 40 than the top plates 45 on.

  • FIGS. 4 and 5 PARTLY CLOSED
  • FIGS. 6 and 7 FULLY CLOSED
  • plates 44 and 45 alternate around tha axis 40; that the plates each have circularly spaced opposite sides, and that radially 49 of wedge shaped plates 45 taper directionally inwardly so as to engage opposite sides 48 of plates 44 as seen in FIG. 6. Accordingly, sides 49 are parallel to 1 sides 48 with which they are engageable.
  • the tops 50 and 51 of the plates 44 and 45 project above the top level of the elastomeric body material 34, so as to be slidably engageable with the housing surface 27 as referred to above, and the outer extents 50a and 51a of such tops are beveled downwardly and outwardly, as

  • FIGS. 3, 5 and 7 also illustrate the condition that the radial thickness of the elastomeric material 34c radially outwardly of certain webs 31 is greater than the radial thickness of the elastomeric material 34d radially outwardly of other webs 33, in planes normal to axis 40. Plates 52 and 53 seat on the upper end 28' of tube 29, when the packer unit is not constricted inwardly by piston 15.
  • FIGS. 4-7 illustrate the manner in which elastomeric material flows inwardly in protruding folds or waves 60, one for each pair of inserts as the packer is constricted inwardly.
  • Each fold forms to have an inwardly convex surface 61 which advances toward pipe 19, the opposite outer edges 61a of adjacent surfaces 61 merging as cusps 62 located directly radially inwardly of the webs 31; and the innermost edge of each fold lies directly inwardly of a web 33.
  • FIGS. 6 and 7 show the folds in compressive sealing engagement with the pipe, and each other.
  • the circular spacing between successive webs is opened up, by virtue of their successive inward, outward, inward, outward etc. configurations about axis 40, whereby flow of maximum elastomeric material between the webs is facilitated so that significantly less overall strain of the material is required in order to effect sealing closure about the pipe, than was required in the packer design of US. Pat. No. 2,609,836.
  • the bore in FIG. 3 includes annular frusto-conical surface 65 flaring upwardly from ring-shaped surface 36; and ring shaped surface 66 directly above surface 65.
  • the innermost edge 67 of each top plate 44 extends as a circular segment about axis 40, and likewise, the innermost edge 68 of each bottom plate 52 extends as a circular segment about axis 40, so that upon completion of packer closure, the merged segments 67 form a circle, and the merged segments 68 form a circle, for stability and strength.
  • top plates 44 and/or of bottom plates 52 Upon interengagement of top plates 44 and/or of bottom plates 52, continued upward travel of piston against the elastomeric packer periphery assures inward displacement of the inserts 32 relative to inserts 30, as required, to advance the wedge shaped top plates 45 toward edge to edge engagement with plates 44, and wedge shaped bottom plates 53 toward edge-to-edge engagement with plates 52, providing a stable, interlocked insert structure to anchor the elastomeric material against pull-away under the tremendous well fluid pressures exerted on the packer.
  • top and bottom plates protrude from the body 34 of elastomeric material, and that radial grooves 70 and 71 are typically sunk into the material beneath the spaces between successive plates in each row, as is clear from FIGS. 1 and 2.
  • FIG. 6a shows PACKER UNIT 1 in another mode of closure, wherein pipe 19a is a larger diameter than pipe 19.
  • the opposite sides 49 of plates 51 do not come into engagement with the opposite sides 48 of plates 50; rather, plates 51 approach toward interfitting engagement with plates 50, and elastomeric or rubber material 34 may extrude into the spaces 200 between the sides 48 and 49 of the plates if constricting pressure is sufficiently great.
