Abstract: Apparatus for bending a coiled tubing, the apparatus having a head portion for lateral insertion in a side opening in a wall of a well, the head portion defining a bending path for bending the coiled tubing during feeding thereof through the head portion, and the head portion having a coiled tubing straightener for straightening the coiled tubing during feeding. The coiled tubing straightener is retractable so that it can adopt a retracted position, for lateral insertion of the head portion into the side opening of the well wall. The head portion has, when the straightener is in the retracted position, a profile as viewed in the direction of lateral insertion, and the straightener being extendable for operation to straighten the coiled tubing to an extended position at least partly outside of the profile of the head portion.

Abstract: An injection module is used for lateral insertion and bending of a coiled tubing via a side opening in a well. The module is structured for connection to the side opening. The module includes injection equipment for coiled tubing operations. The distinctive characteristic of the injection module is that it also includes an insertion device connected to the injection equipment wherein the insertion device is structured in a manner allowing it to fit within the side opening in the well. A first end portion of the insertion device includes a bending head with a bending path, wherein the bending head is structured in a manner allowing it to directionally deviate the coiled tubing upon conducting the coiled tubing along the bending path. The insertion device is provided with a guide conduit extending from a second end portion of the insertion device and onwards to the bending head for allowing the coiled tubing to be conducted into the bending head.
