Abstract: An assembly is used for chemical injection through a wellhead to a capillary line in a well. A capillary hanger installs in the wellhead to support the capillary line. A no-return valve of the capillary hanger prevents fluid communication uphole from the supported capillary line. An injection module mounts above a gate valve on the wellhead and includes a movable mandrel disposed therein. Hydraulic pressure applied to a piston chamber in the module extends the mandrel through the open gate valve so that a distal end of the mandrel can open the no-return valve. At this point, chemical injection introduced into the module can communicate through a flow bore of the extended mandrel, through the open non-return valve, and on through the supported capillary line in the well.

Abstract: A vent valve comprises a valve housing defining a vent port and a valve member mounted within the housing so as to define a fluid system chamber and an activation chamber with the housing. The valve member is biased towards a closed position, in which fluid communication between the fluid system chamber and the vent port is prevented, by fluid pressure within the fluid system chamber acting on the valve member. The valve member is biased towards an open position, in which there is fluid communication between the fluid system chamber and the vent port, by fluid pressure within the activation chamber acting on the valve member. The vent valve further comprises a pressure limiting arrangement associated with the activation chamber to limit pressure therein to a predetermined pressure value.

Abstract: A blow out preventor (BOP) apparatus is disclosed including a quick connection system. The quick connection system comprises at least one actuator receiving aperture including at least one female connector having a female engaging profile and at least actuator cylinder including at least one male connector having a male engaging profile, where the male engaging profile is adapted to register with the female engaging profile upon insertion of an actuator into its corresponding receiving aperture and upon rotation of the actuator through a rotational angle.

Abstract: A blow out preventor (BOP) apparatus is disclosed that includes a BOP body including a quick connection system including one female connector or a plurality of female connectors, disposed in each actuator receiving aperture, each female connector having a female engaging profile and one male connector or a plurality of male connectors, disposed on an outer surface of an actuator cylinder, one for each female connector, each male connector having a male engaging profile, where the male engaging profile is adapted to register with the female engaging profile upon insertion of an actuator into its corresponding receiving aperture and upon rotation of the actuator through a rotational angle, the male profile engages the female profile in at least one contacting zone, and where the rotational angle depends on the profiles.
