  • Patent number: 12152447
    Abstract: A blowout preventer assembly for installing a safety valve in a drill pipe includes a jack mounted to a drilling platform in an oil field. The device includes an extension arm attached to the jack which has a first portion slidably engaging a second portion such that the extension arm has an adjustable length. An actuator is attached to the extension arm to urge the second portion to travel toward or away from the jack thereby facilitating the collar to is positioned over a drill pipe which is integrated into the drilling platform. A slip die is insertable into a collar on the extension arm thereby facilitating the slip die to engage a drill pipe sub joint which has a safety valve. The collar aligns the safety valve with the drill pipe thereby facilitating the safety valve to be lowered into the drill pipe when the jack is actuated into the lowering condition.
