Abstract: A method and apparatus used for connecting adjoining conduit segments in oil and gas well operations is disclosed. The apparatus and method discloses use of a receptacle assembly attached to one conduit segment and stinger assembly attached to a second conduit segment. A rotatable wheeled hub threadably joins the stinger assembly to the receptacle assembly. The conduit connection ends of the stinger assembly and the receptacle assembly may be configured to accommodate a variety of common types of conduit connections such as Chiksan, hose, pipe, tubing, casing, flanges, hubs and other conduits for conveying media.

Abstract: An in-tubing or casing fracture packing assembly including a running tool, HDR sub assembly, a displaceable flow diversion valve by which a filter media slurry is pumped down the annulus of the assembly until a gravel pack is achieved. The HDR running tool allows the bottom hole assembly to be deployed without fear of premature release due to loads or manipulation during deployment, but allows for easy detachment once pumping is completed. An equalizing vent in the HDR sub assembly maintains equal pressure internally and externally. The flow diversion valve is autonomously tripped when the media has been properly placed, providing a positive indication at the surface. A portion of the assembly is removed and the packing assembly remains within the well bore after pumping is completed. An isolation seal is then placed on the sealing mandrel of the assembly and isolated to the tubing or casing wall.
