Pierce, Jr., Houston, Tex., assignor to Gray Tool Company, Houston, Tex., a corporation of Texas Filed Feb. 4, 1964, Ser. No. 342,440 6 Claims. (Cl. 285-39) This invention relates to apparatus for use in constructing oil and gas wells and in particular to the construction and use of hangers and related equipment for 1sluspending casing strings and tubing strings in a well cad.

The present invention is related to the subject matter of application Serial No. 250,262 filed January 9, 1963, describing a casing hanger which is locked in place in its casing head by means of a plurality of locking balls which are carried in laterally extending passageways in the hanger. To look the hanger in a supporting head the balls are forced outwardly into a groove in the inner surface of the head by means of a setting or landing tool which is releasably connected to the upper end of the hanger. The tool is designed so that upon rotation thereof, by means of a drill pipe or the like, it sets the locking balls and then releases itself from the hanger. The present invention is related to this general type of arrangement but differs therefrom in several'respects, one of which is the use of an expandable locking ring in place of locking balls.

It is the primary object of the present invention to provide a novel hanger and setting tool therefor for use in landing casing strings and tubing strings in appropriate supporting heads and for locking the hanger to the head without employing the usual externally operated holdown screws or the like. The arrangement, in effecting hold-down of the hanger from within the head, is particularly advantageous in constructing well heads below water level or under other conditions where the well. head is remote from workmen.

It is a further object to provide apparatus and procedures for landing a casing hanger or a tubing hanger in a supporting head and locking the hanger in place solely by operations conducted through blow-out preventers and other control equipment connected to the top of the head.

It is another object to provide a hanger and tool assembly which in combination with a drawworks permits rapid and effective landing of the hanger in a head, locking and sealing of the hanger to the interior of the head and release and withdrawal of the tool from the hanger.

It is still another object to provide a hanger and tool assembly of the above type in which the hanger carries on its periphery an expandable locking ring for engagement wit-h a groove in the inner surface of the head and in which the tool carries a ring compressing member which is actuable by rotation of the tool to release the locking ring at the desired time.

The invention will be further understood from the following detailed description taken with the drawings in which:

FIGURE 1 is a fragmentary elevational view, partly broken away and partly in section, of a well head in an early stage of construction;

FIGURE 2 is an elevational View, partly broken away and partly in section, of the well head of FIGURE 1 in a later stage of construction;

FIGURE 3 is a top plan view of the locking ring used in constructing the well head of FIGURES 1 and 2; and 7 FIGURE 4 is an elevational view, partly broken away and partly in section, of another well head.

Referring to FIGURES 1 and 2 there is shown a well head 10 mounted on top of a vertical conductor pipe 12,

3,341,227 Patented Sept. 12, 1967 for example a 26 inch casing, whose lower end has been driven or otherwise set into the ground. The invention is particularly advantageous under conditions where the well head 10 is remote from the drawworks as where the well head is below the surface of a body of water, but it is not limited to this type of arrangement.

In the construction illustrated the lowermost member of the well head 10 is a multiple-bowl casing head 14 which has been welded at 16 to the top of the conductor pipe 12. The casing .head 14 has a central bore having a lower annular seat 18 which is tapered downwardly and inwardly and a similar upper seat 20 of slightly greater diameter. Intermediate the

seats

18 and 20 are two conventional flanged

outlets

22 and 24 which communicate with the bore. The upper end of the head 14 terminates in an outwardly extending flange 26 which is connected to the lower flanged end 27 of control equipment 29 by means of a clamp 34 and sealing ring 32 of the type fully disclosed in Patent No. 2,766,829.

In FIGURE 1 a casing hanger 36 is shown being landed through the'control equipment 29 on the lower seat 18 in the multiple-bowl casing head 14 by means of a setting tool 38. The hanger 36 includes an annular body portion 40 which defines the bore of the hanger and an external tapered shoulder 42 adapted for engagement with the seat 18 in .the head 14. A string of casing 43, for example 16 inch casing, is-suspcnded from the lower end of the hanger body 40 by means of a threaded connection 44, and the hanger itself is suspended from the lower end of the tool 38 by threads 45. Immediately above the shoulder 42 is an annular groove carrying a sealing ring 46 which engages a vertical cylindrical surface on the bore of the head 14.

According to the invention the hanger body 40 is provided with a resilient locking ring 48 which is adapted, when not restrained, to expand into a groove 50 in the bore of the head 14. As shown in FIGURES 1 and 2 the ring 48 is carried in a groove 52 in the external surface of the hanger body 40 at a location above the shoulder 42.

The ring 48 is machined from a closed steel ring and is then formed into a snap-type ring so that it may be slipped over the top of the hanger body 40. A machining operation shapes the bore of the original closed ring to a smooth cylindrical surface and shapesv the outer periphery of the upper portion to a frusto-conical shape 53 which tapers upwardly and inwardly. Below the tapered surface 53 there is machined an outwardly extending annular flange having parallel upper and lower flat surfaces extending transversely to the axis of the ring. In order to make the ring extensible and con: tractible a single vertical saw cut 54, as shown in FIG- URE 3, is made completely throughthe metal. Then a plurality of vertical cuts 56 are made in the wall of the bore deep enough to extend through the frustroconical surface 53, but not through the flange. Portions of the flange are then cut away at locations 58 between the cuts 56 so as to leave a plurality of arcuate flanges 60. In its operative position the ring 48 is engaged along its upper and lower edges :by the upper and lower walls of the groove 52, but suflicient clearance is provided to allow the ring to expand and contract.

The setting tool 38 for use with the hanger 36 includes an annular body portion 62 defining a bore of about the same diameter as the bore of the casing string 43 and having an outside diameter which permits its insertion within the bore of the hanger body 40 for threaded engagement therewith at 45. A sealing ring 64 is carried in an external groove in the tool body 62 above the connection 45 for engagement with the wall of the bore in the hanger body 40. The upper end of the bore of the 3 tool body 62 is provided with threads 66 for connection with the lower end of a string of landing casing 68 or the like by means of which the tool 38, hanger 36 and casing string 43 can be lowered by a drawworks. The threads 66 are cut in the opposite direction from the threads at the connection 45 so that rotation of the pipe 68 in a direction to disengage the connection 45 will not disengage the connection at 66.

The tool 38 further includes a locking ring compressor in the form of a collar 70 which is carried externally on the tool body 62 above the connection 45. The upper end of the collar 70 has an inwardly extending flange 72 which is vertically slidable between upper and lower outwardly extending

flanges

74 and 76 on the tool body 62. The lower portion of the collar 70 is spaced laterally from the tool body 40 thereby forming an annulus into which the upper end of the hanger body 40 and the locking ring 48 project. The inner surface of the collar 70 in this region is tapered upwardly and inwardly so as to be complementary to the exterior frusto-conical surface 53 on the locking ring 48.

The locations of the collar 70 and the

flanges

74 and 76 are such that when the tool body 62 is fully threaded into the hanger body 40, the lower flange 76 serves as a stop which abuts the top of the hanger body 40. In this position the upper flange 74 assures that the collar 70 rides down on the locking ring 48 a sufiicient distance to contract the ring 48 completely into the groove 52. When the hanger body 40 rests on the seat 18 rotation of the pipe 68 and the tool body 62 raises the collar 70 so that the lock ring 48 extends into the groove 50 to lock the hanger body 40 in place. Continued rotation releases the threaded connection 45 so that the pipe 68, tool body 62 and collar 70 may be withdrawn from the well head 10.

FIGURE 2 illustrates the well head in a substan tially completed state. The additional components include an intermediate casing hanger 78 within the casing head 14, the combined casing-tubing head 30, an upper casing hanger 80 within the head 30 and a parent tubing hanger 82 for dual strings of tubing also within the head 30. As will be understood from the above brief description of the operation of the tool body 62, the latter and its collar 70 are removed after the hanger 36 has been landed on the seat 18 in the head 14 so that further drilling and landing operations may be conducted through the head 14.

The external surface of the intermediate casing hanger 78 is provided with a downwardly and inwardly tapering annular shoulder 84 engaging the upper seat 20 in the head 14 and with a sealing ring 86 above the shoulder. The upper end of the hanger 78 terminates in an upwardly and inwardly tapered extension which carries a sealing ring 88 engaging a complementary surface on the bore of the casing tubing head 30. A string of casing 90, for example 10% inch casing, is threaded into the lower end of the bore of the hanger 78 at 92. The upper end of the bore is provided with threads 94 for connection with a pipe or the like employed for lowering the hanger 78 into place.

The uppermost casing hanger 80 has a downwardly and inwardly tapered exterior surface which rests on a complementary seat 96 in the bore of the casing-tubing head 30. A pair of sealing rings 98 carried in grooves in hanger 80 form a seal at this point. A casing string 100, such as 7 inch casing, is threaded into the lower end of the bore of the hanger 80 at 102. The upper end of the bore is provided with threads 104 for connection with a pipe or the like.

The tubing hanger 82 is supported within the casingtubing head 30 on top of a plurality of circumferentially spaced, laterally extending wedges, one of which is shown at 106. The wedges 106 serve also as hold-down means for the casing hanger 80 by engaging an upwardly and inwardly tapered surface 108 on the top of the latter.

Movement of each wedge into its operative position is achieved by means of a screw 110 which extends through the wall of the head 30. A complete description of the wedges 106 and their operating mechanisms and seals may be found in copending application Serial No. 260,372 filed Feb. 25, 1963. Two strings of tubing 114 are suspended from the tubing hanger 82 and extend through the upper end of the head 30 for connection with a flow control head (not shown).

The casing-tubing head 30 further includes a plurality of conventional hold-down screws 112 engaging the top of the tubing hanger 82 and an outwardly extending flange 116 at its upper end for receiving a clamp such as the clamp 34 shown in FIGURE 1. An upper set of flanged laterally extending outlets, one of which is illustrated at 120 are positioned opposite lateral ports 122 in the tubing hanger 82 for receiving flow of well fluids from the space between the tubing 114 and the casing string 100. A lower set of

flanged outlets

124 and 126 receive flow from the annulus between the casing strings and 100.

In operation, the tool 38 and the hanger 36 are first assembled at the surface by screwing the lower end of the tool body 62 into the bore of the hanger body 40 to nection is complete when the top of the hanger body 40 make up the connection 45. As indicated above, this conabuts the lower flange 76 on the tool body. The collar 70 will be moved toward the locking ring 48 by the upper flange 74 so as to engage the lower tapered surface of the collar with the complementary surface 53 on the ring 48. By the time the connection is complete the ring 48 will have been compressed in the groove 52 an amount suflicient to assure that the outwardly extending flanges 60 do not extend beyond the periphery of the hanger body 40.

When the casing string 43 has been partially lowered by a drawworks into a hole drilled through the multiplebowl casing head 14 and the conductor casing 12 the lower end of the hanger body 40 is screwed over the end of the last section of the string to make up the connection 44 at the surface. Then a section of landing casing 68 is screwed into the upper end of the tool body at 62. The landing casing 68 is lowered, connecting additional sections as necessary, until the shoulder 42 on the hanger body 40 rests on the seat 18 in the casing head 14. The landing casing 68 is then rotated in a direction to unscrew the connection 45 between the hanger body 40 and the tool body 62. The hanger body 40 does not rotate because the weight of the casing string 42 is now carried at the seat 18, and the connection 66 does not unscrew because these threads are opposite to those at 45. As the tool body 62 moves upwardly during the disconnecting operation, the lower flange 76 thereon lifts the collar 70 so as to allow the locking ring 48 to expand and thereby move the flanges 60 into the groove 50 in the head 14.

It is a further feature of the tool and hanger assembly that the connection 45 is of suflicient length that it does not completely disengage until after the locking ring 48 has been allowed to expand. This arrangement allows an upward pull on the hanger body 40 by means of the landing casing 68 and drawworks in order to determine that the locking action has been effected. In addition, this feature permits the tool body 62 to be easily reconnected to the hangar body 40 in the event that it is desired to unlock and remove the hanger body 40.

It will be understood that the initial setting of the conductor casing 12, the attachment of the head 14 thereto and the drilling which precede the above-described landing and locking operation of the hanger body 40 and the subsequent cementing and drilling steps and the landing of the casings, 90 and and the tubing 114 may be carried out by known procedures. In this connection reference is again made to copending application Ser. No. 250,262 wherein well completion procedures are described in detail for a well head system which embodies a tool and hanger assembly employing locking balls. Further, it is contemplated that the principles involved in the present locking ring arrangement may be applied to a variety of well head systems, such as those disclosed in Patent Nos. 2,082,413, 2,117,444, 2,207,469, 2,620,880 and 2,624,413. It will be apparent that whenever the present invention is employed to lock a hanger in place, the tool and hanger assembly is lowered through appropriate control equipment mounted on top of the respective casing or tubing head and the locking operation is conducted through the control equipment from the surface, which in underwater operations may be quite remote from the well head. The arrangement is thereby advantageous in adapting a given hanger and head to remote operations because there is no need for externally operated hanger holddown means. While the well head 10, as shown, employs only one locking ring 48, it will be understood that additional rings could be used in place of the wedges 106 and the hold-down screws 112.

One type of different well head with which the locking ring of the invention can be employed is illustrated in FIGURE 4. The well head illustrated therein includes a unitary, compact casing-tubing head 130 of the type fully disclosed in the copending application of Pierce filed J an. 3, 1964. As disclosed therein the head 130 is mounted on top of a conductor casing 132, for example 13% inch casing, and contains in ascending order a first casing hanger 134, a second casing hanger 136 and a tubing hanger 138. The lower casing hanger 134 is provided with a downwardly projecting interiorly threaded extension by which a first string of casing 140, for example 9% inch casing, is suspended. The upper casing hanger 136 has a lower interiorly threaded extension from which a second string of casing 142, for example 7 inch casing, is suspended. The tubing hanger 138 suspends a single tubing string 144, for example 3 /2 inch tubing, and is itself supported on top of the upper casing hanger 136.

The tubing hanger 138 is of the stufing box type in which an annular seal 146 grips the exterior of the tubing string 144. An annular bottom extension on the tubing hanger 138 is spaced inwardly from the wall of the head 130 and is provided with a plurality of lateral ports 140 communicating with the annulus between the tubing 144 and the casing 142. The upper portion of the head 130 is provided with an annular groove for receiving holddown screws 154 which extend laterally through the head 130. Above the top of the head 130 the tubing 144 connects with a threaded plug bushing 156 which is retained in a flanged cap member 158 bolted to the top of the head 130. In practice, suitable valving and a production line will be connected to the top of the cap member 158 for receiving flow from the tubing 144.

The lower hanger 134 is supported by the head 130 primarily along an exterior, downwardly facing tapered shoulder 160 which is located on a cylindrical center portion of the hanger 134 below a pair of spaced sealing rings 162 and which rests on a complementary seat within the head 130. Integral with the center portion of the lower hanger 134 is an upwardly projecting annular extension 164 having an exterior sealing surface 166* which is tapered slightly inwardly and downwardly for engagement with a complementary seat within the head 130. This seat has, of course, a minimum diameter of sufficient size to permit the body portion of the hanger 134 to pass by during the landing of the casing string 140. The inner surface of the extension 164 is tapered inwardly and downwardly at 168 to a greater extent than the surface 166 so as to form a seat for the upper hanger 136. A plurality of circulation ports 170 extends through the extension 164 below the tapered surfaces.

The upper hanger 136 includes, in addition to a lower extension 172, an upper cylindrical portion 174 which engages the bore of the head 130 above the lower hanger 134. Intermediate the extension 172 and the upper portion 174 the upper hanger 136 is provided with an exterior tapered surface which engages the seat 168 in the 6 lower hanger 134. Suitable sealing rings 176, 178 and 180 are provided between the upper hanger portion 174 and the bore of the head and at the seats 168 and 166, respectively.

Above the seat the upper hanger carries a locking ring 48' which is identical to the locking ring 48 described with reference to FIGURES 1-3. In the substantially completed assembly illustrated the ring 48' is shown in its expanded condition in which its flanges 60* engage the walls of a groove in the inner surface of the head 130'.

It will be understood, without specific description, that the upper hanger is landed and locked in position with the aid of a tool identical with that already described and by the same procedure.

Modifications of the invention will occur to those skilled in the art and it is therefore not intended that the described and illustrated details be limiting except as they appear in the appended claims.
