  • Patent number: 9970255
    Abstract: A relief well injection spool for use in killing a well has a body with a pair of inlets opening to a bore on an interior of the body, a ram body cooperative with the bore of the body so as to selectively open and close the bore, an upper connector affixed to the body and adapted to connect the body to a lower end of a blowout preventer, and a wellhead connector affixed to a lower end of the body. Each of the pair of inlets has a valve cooperative therewith. The upper connector opens to the bore of the body. The wellhead connector is adapted to connect to a relief well wellhead. The wellhead connector also opens to the bore of the body. A floating vessel can be provided so as to deliver a kill fluid into at least one of the pair of inlets.
