 OVERVIEW
The 2.75” PT-X Equalising Blanking Plug is run and strategically positioned in the Blanking Nipple of the Bypass Y-Tool.
It prevents re-circulation during ESP operation.
The PT-X Blanking Plug is a Top No-Go type tool with spring loaded retractable Dogs which lock the Plug into the
Blanking Nipple.
The Blanking Plug is normally run using a standard 2-1/2” JDS (short core jar down) Pulling Tool, latched onto the 1.75”
Running/Pulling Neck of the Blanking Plug.
On installation the Plug is jarred into the Nipple, the Dogs retract as the Plug enters the Nipple and snap out into a 'lock
recess' when it shoulders on the No-Go. Straight upward pull verifies the Plug is correctly set. Downward jarring then
releases the Pulling Tool.
On retrieval, the 2-1/2” JDS Pulling Tool again engages the 1.75” Running/Pulling Neck of the Blanking Plug, this
component is formed with a sleeve which blanks off a set of equalizing ports and is locked using Brass Shear Screws.
Upward jarring shears the Shear Screws to allow equalization of pressure from above to below the Plug. A further set of
Shear Screws lock a Shear Ring in position to provide a shoulder for the retractable Dogs. Upward jarring additionally
shears these Brass Shear Screws to release the Dogs and allow the Plug to be pulled free from the Nipple.
PRIOR TO INSTALLATION
Ensure Blanking Plug is in good condition, paying particular attention to Fishing Neck and external diameters.
Blanking Plug has been redressed with new Seals, use Redress Kit RD-000342.
The retractable Dogs are supported by a Shear Ring which incorporates 8 off Shear Screw holes. (N.B.: Wireline
operator should determine how many Shear Screws to be used. Refer to table on assembly drawing to
determine the overpull required to pull the plug from the Nipple.)
Wireline toolstring is correctly configured (i.e. 2-1/2” JDS Pulling Tool, Spang Jar, Stem and Rope Socket).
EQUIPMENT REQUIRED
2-1/2” JDS Pulling Tool (N.B.: The JDS Pulling Tool is a short core jar down to release tool, should this be
required.)
Wireline Stems and Jars
Wireline Centraliser (Recommended)
RUNNING PROCEDURE
1. Make up the 2-1/2” JDS Pulling Tool to the wireline toolstring, which should include appropriate stem
and jarring tools.
2. Snap the 1.75” Running/Pulling Neck of the Blanking Plug to the 2-1/2” JDS Pulling tool
(this is the bigger of the two necks). Ensure that the Pulling Tool can be released from the
Fishing Neck prior to RIH.
3. Visually inspect all equipment, following the appropriate procedures, to check for damage or
unserviceable equipment.
4. Run the Blanking Plug in hole recording run weights and pull weights.
5. The running speed should be reduced as the Blanking Plug reaches the estimated setting depth
of the Nipple profile that it is to be landed in.
6. The Blanking Plug should be gently jarred into position and once sufficient jarring has occurred
for the No-Go to be reached heavy jarring can be applied to set the Blanking Plug and shear off the
2-1/2” JDS Pulling Tool. (N.B.: 500Lbs. max. overpull can be applied to check the
Blanking Plug is correctly locked in position.)
7. POOH to release the 2-1/2” JDS Pulling Tool from the Fishing Neck of the Blanking Plug and
return the wireline toolstring to surface using standard wireline procedures.
PULLING PROCEDURE
1. Make up the 2-1/2” JDS Pulling Tool to the wireline toolstring, which should include appropriate stem
and jarring tools. (N.B.: The use of a Wireline Centraliser directly above the Pulling Tool is
recommended for Y-Tool operations.)
2. Run the wireline toolstring in hole recording run weights and pull weights.
3. The running speed should be reduced as the wireline toolstring reaches the estimated setting depth
of the Nipple profile that the Blanking Plug is landed in.
4. When satisfied that the Pulling Tool has latched the Fishing Neck of the BlankingPlug, an upward
jarring (overpull) should be applied in order to shear the Equalising Shear Screws (2off) and allow
equalisation of pressure from above to below the Blanking Plug. (N.B.: Wireline operator should
determine equalisation time. Refer to table on assembly drawing to determine the overpull
required to shear the screws.)
5. Once the pressure is equalised, heavier upward jarring will shear the Unset Shear Screws in the
Shear Ring and will retract the Dogs inside the Dog Housing allowing the Blanking Plug to be pulled free
from the Nipple. (N.B.: Refer to table on assembly drawing to determine the overpull required
to shear the screws.)
6. If Blanking Plug does not come free immediately allow reasonable amount of time to equalize.
7. POOH and retrieve Blanking Plug to surface using standard wireline procedures.
