- Fig. 3 shows another embodiment of the well intervention tool
- Fig. 4 shows another embodiment of the intervention blowout preventer
- Fig. 5 shows yet another embodiment of the intervention blowout preventer. All the figures are highly schematic and not necessarily to scale, and they show only those parts which are necessary in order to elucidate the invention, other parts being omitted or merely suggested.
- Fig. 1 shows an intervention blowout preventer 1 mounted to a top part 22 of the well head 2 arranged on the seabed on deep water.
- the intervention blowout preventer 1 comprises a plurality of valves 3, 4 arranged on top of each other, and thus in fluid communication with each other.
- the first valve is an annular valve 3 and the other valve may be a ram valve 4.
- the valves 3, 4 are connected and form part of a tubular pipe 5.
- the tubular pipe is connected with the well head 2, and at the other end, the tubular pipe may be connected with a lubricator 20 comprising a well intervention tool 100 illustrated by dotted lines.
- the tubular pipe 5 encloses a cavity 10 which is in fluid communication with the well head when the intervention blowout preventer is 1 mounted onto the well head 2 and at least one plug 37 in the well head has been removed by means of an intervention tool 100.
- the lubricator 20 is arranged on top of the intervention blowout preventer 1, said lubricator being arranged comprising the intervention tool capable of pulling the plug 37 and providing access to the well for a subsequent tool.
- the intervention tool 100 is powered by means of a wireline 24 extending through a grease injection head 21.
- the intervention blowout preventer 1 further comprises a pressure reducing system 120 in the form of a chamber 6 and a piston 7.
- the piston 7 is arranged inside the chamber dividing the chamber into a first chamber part 8 and a second chamber part 9.
- the first chamber part 8 is in fluid communication with the cavity and the second chamber part 9 is filled with a compressible fluid, such as gas.
- the chamber 6 is connected with the tubular pipe 5 by means of a flow channel 15 providing the fluid communication between the cavity and the first chamber part.
- a control device 11, such as a valve, is arranged in the flow channel 15 for controlling the flow of fluid into the first chamber part 8.
- the control device 11 is closed when the lubricator 20 is connecting and subsequently, the control device 11 is opened, hence letting fluid from the cavity into the first chamber part 8, decreasing the pressure inside the intervention blowout preventer 1 and the lubricator 20.
- the force acting on the plug 37 is also decreased substantially and the plug 37 is thus easier to pull.
- the piston is slidably arranged on a shaft 12 which is also inside the chamber. In this way, the movement of the piston is controlled so that the piston does not tilt and jam if further movement of the piston is needed.
- the gas inside the second chamber part is compressed, increasing the volume of the first chamber part as it is filled with fluid.
- the capacity of the chamber is typically 5 litres, preferably 8 litres or more preferably 10 litres, or more.
- the control device 11 may also comprise a motor adjusting the control device or the position of the valve in order to let more or less fluid into the first chamber, or even stop the fluid from entering.
- the chamber By having a flow channel 15 connecting the chamber with the cavity, the chamber can be arranged at a distance from the tubular part of the intervention blowout preventer and is easily implemented in existing blowout preventers. Furthermore, the control device 11 can be mounted on the flow channel so that the control device can be operated by an ROV, or manually or even remotely.
- the intervention blowout preventer 1 may further comprise a control unit 38 comprising the storage device, and/or a communication unit for communicating with the control device 11.
- the intervention blowout preventer 1 may further comprise a sensor for sensing a pressure in the cavity and the current pressure can be sent through the communication unit or stored for later use. Depending on the pressure, the control device 11 is actuated to either let more fluid into the first chamber part 8 or decrease the flow thereto.
- Fig. 2 shows a well intervention tool 100 for pulling the plug 37, such as a crown plug, in a top part 23 of a well head 2 in order to be able to enter the well.

- the first chamber part 108 is in fluid communication with an opening 113 in the tool housing 52 and thus in fluid communication with fluid in the lubricator.
- the second chamber part 109 is filled with a compressible fluid, such as gas. In order to reduce the amount of force needed to pull a plug 37, the pressure inside the lubricator is reduced after the lubricator has been connected with the well head 2.
- the stroking tool 52 further comprises a control device 111, such as a valve, for controlling the pressure in the lubricator 20 by controlling the amount of fluid let into the first chamber part 108.
- a control device 111 such as a valve
- the piston moves and the gas in the second chamber part 109 is compressed and the pressure inside the lubricator is reduced.
- the pressure in the lubricator 20 By reducing the pressure in the lubricator 20, the amount of force needed to pull the plug is also reduced substantially, and thus the anchoring force needed is reduced accordingly.
- a standard lubricator can be used to anchor up and the plug can thus be pulled by a stroking tool. As shown in Fig.
- connection of the plug 37 to be pulled comprises a female connection and the connection unit 51 of the connection pulling unit 50 is shaped as a male connection with latches matching the female connection.
- the intervention tool 100 further comprises a stroking tool 52 connected to the connection pulling unit and providing an axial movement along the axial extension for moving the male connection unit into engagement with the female connection of the plug 37. Once the male-shaped connection unit 51 engages the female connection of the plug, the stroking tool moves a first part of the connection pulling unit 50 in relation to a second part in order to move the latches radially outwards.
- control device 112 is arranged in the opening 111, but may be arranged in any suitable manner.
- the stroking tool 52 is connected with the connection pulling unit 50 by means of a stroker shaft 55 and a threaded connection or a conventional male/female connection.

- the intervention tool 100 may further comprise a driving section, such as a downhole tractor having wheels arranged on projectable arms, in order to anchor the tool inside the lubricator. Due to the pressure reducing system 120, the intervention tool needs not be anchored as much as prior art tools.
- the intervention tool 100 may be wireless and driven only by an internal power source, such as a battery.
- the intervention blowout preventer 1 may often be arranged in a supporting structure in the form of a frame structure, and together with the frame structure it forms an intervention module.

- a diver or the Remote Operational Vehicle also called an ROV
- the control device may comprise a receiving and/or transmitting unit so that the control device has data transmission capability to a remote operating centre.
- the remote operating centre may thus be located in the nearest town and still be able to control a park of wells, and thus well heads 2, without viewing the control device.
- the intervention blowout preventer 1 may also comprise a control unit comprising a receiving and/or transmitting unit enabling the control unit to transmit data to and from a remote operating centre. Communicating with and receiving and/or transmitting data to and from the remote operating centre may take place by means of a satellite.
