Install the Retrievable Drilling Guide Structure and 30" Wellhead Housing
After the temporary guide base has been landed and the guidelines tensioned, the 36" hole is drilled to accommodate
the 30" conductor pipe. The 30" wellhead housing, conductor string, and retrievable drilling guide structure are run as
an assembled unit in either pre-drilled or jetting operations.

Drill the 26" Hole with Marine Riser and Hydraulic Latch
After the 30" conductor is run, shallow formations or local
government regulations may require drilling the 26" hole
with returns to the drilling vessel. When these conditions
occur, an ABB Vetco Gray Marine Riser System and
Hydraulic Latch are used.
1. Install the hydraulic latch and Flex Joint on the
marine riser.

After a successful BOP stack test, pull the test plug, re-run
the seat protector in the wellhead housing using the seat
protector/wear busing running and retrieving tool.

Step 1
Install the casing hanger tool in the hanger/packoff
assembly.
3-9
Step 2
Rotate to the left, fully seating the tool in the hanger and the
packoff is in running position.
Step 3
Run and land the hanger in the wellhead.
3-10
Step 4
Hanger and tool landed. Cement returns flowby.
Step 5
Hanger landed, packoff set and tested.

Reinstall
6. Install a new packoff on the running tool and run
into the wellhead.
7. Land the packoff on the casing hanger and rotate
the tool two turns to the right.
8. Pull up on the running string to verify that the
packoff made up to the casing hanger, slack off and
continue rotating 10 turns to the right.
9. When the packoff is torqued to requirements,
pressure test.
10. After a successful test, bleed off the test pressure
and apply approximately 800 psi to the tool to
retract the torque keys.
11. Rotate 1/8 turn to the left until a slight torque build
up is noticed and retrieve the tool to the surface.

Corrosion Cap
If a well proves to be of commercial significance, it can be
capped until the operator wishes to complete it. The ABB
Vetco Gray diverless corrosion cap temporarily protects
suspended wells.
Run on the seat protector/wear bushing running and
retrieving tool, the corrosion cap simply stabs over the
wellhead, and automatically locks to the outer H-4 profile on
the wellhead housing.
Retrievable drillling guide structure retrieved and corrosion cap installed on a suspended well.

Emergency Equipment
The SG-5/5XP emergency sealing system consists of an emergency packoff, a 13-3/8" emergency seal assembly,
and a 9-5/8" emergency seal assembly.
Emergency Packoff
Used to seal the casing annulus in the event the primary
seal area is unusable. Lands on a casing hanger shoulder
above the normal seating position, seats against this
shoulder with O-rings and against the wellhead housing
with a special SG-type seal. Shorter than the standard
packoff assembly, the emergency packoff will not interfere
with subsequent casing hangers. Run with the packoff
running and retrieving tool.

Tieback Systems
Tieback Systems
The SG-5/5XP wellhead system is easily adapted for use
with a fixed platform or TLP tieback completion system. By
using the SG-5/5XP 9-5/8" tieback hanger, the production
strings can be tied back to the platform. The standard ABB
Vetco Gray tieback system locks and seals the 20",
13-3/8", and 9-5/8" casing strings into the SG-5/5XP
wellhead system. The 9-5/8" production string has a full
metal-to-metal seal. The initial tieback riser lands on the
SG-5/5XP wellhead, makes up without rotation while the
funnel adapter of the tieback system accommodates angular
