Abstract: A system includes a housing section positioned within a wellhead area, the housing section also includes a removable wellhead bushing arranged over at least one engagement feature of the housing. The system also includes a Christmas tree including a treehead area, the treehead area includes a removable treehead bushing arranged over at least one engagement feature of the treehead area. The system further includes a tubular extending through both the wellhead bushing and the treehead bushing, wherein the tubular includes an installation and removal tool adapted to remove at least one of the wellhead bushing and the treehead bushing during wellbore operations.

Abstract: A wellhead assembly includes a wellhead housing having a bore with a wellhead housing sidewall and a longitudinal axis. A hanger lands in the bore, the hanger having a hanger sidewall. Parallel circumferentially extending hanger sidewall ridges are located on the hanger sidewall. Each of the hanger sidewall ridges have upper and lower flanks that converge to a crest. Hanger sidewall bands are located between adjacent ones of the hanger sidewall ridges. A metal seal ring has an outer seal surface in metal-to-metal sealing engagement with the wellhead housing sidewall and an inner seal surface in metal-to-metal sealing engagement with the hanger sidewall bands. Crests of the hanger sidewall ridges embed into the inner seal surface to restrict relative movement between the hanger and the seal ring. A recess extends through each of the hanger sidewall ridges from the upper flank to the lower flank to allow any fluid trapped between the hanger sidewall ridges to flow out.

Abstract: A system for jetting a borehole in a seafloor, the system including a tubular, and a jetting tool inserted into the tubular and having an end from which fluid is selectively discharged to excavate the borehole. An electrical inclination sensor is attached to the stem of the tubular, and is in communication a transmitter. A receiver is positioned proximate the sea surface and is in communication with the transmitter through the fluid in a drill pipe, so that when the jetting tool is excavating the borehole, an inclination of the tubular is sensed by the inclination sensor, which inclination is communicated from the transmitter to the receiver.
