Grease Injection Control Heads

Wireline Pressure Control Equipment

Positioned on top of the lubricator rig up, the Grease Injection Control
Head is designed to contain well pressure whilst running braided cable
into or out of the well. Available in a number of basic configurations, the
current Hunting family of designs is the culmination of years of experience.
Each configuration offers operators a light weight and effective means of
containing pressure.

All Grease Injection Control Heads consist of a number of flow tubes – the actual
number depends upon the well pressure and a number of other factors. The bore
of these flow tubes is carefully sized to suit the cable being used. Ideally it would
be only .006 - .008 bigger than the cable. The tubes are held together by an
outer sleeve and couplings. The lowermost coupling has a grease injection port.
At the top of the flow tubes is a hydraulic pack off and a grease drain.

Available in a number of basic configurations, the

current Hunting family of designs is the culmination of
years of experience.

A seal is affected by pumping grease at slightly above well pressure, into the port
in the lowermost coupling. From there, it flows into the annulus between the flow
tube and the cable. This action causes a pressure drop to occur across each
tube prior to the grease exiting through the return port at the top.

The bottom flow tube can be fitted with a quick union adapter, or threaded
directly into a specially deigned tool catcher. For safety, a velocity ball check
valve is normally located below the flow tubes. The check valve mechanism
is housed in either the quick union or the tool catcher body. In the event of the
cable breaking and exiting the flow tubes, this valve will close and contain well
fluids. Similarly, grease injection ports are fitted with check valves to prevent well
fluids escaping.

The pack off at the top is closed fully in order to gain control of the pressure
before running the cable. Once the control is gained, the grease controls the
pressure and it can be relaxed to allow free movement of the cable. A line wiper
is often included integrally with the pack off assembly, or added as a separate
component. Dual pack offs are common in 15K applications and becoming more
so for 10K applications.

The key to maintaining a good seal is keeping a good volume of grease flowing
into the system at the correct pressure. One injection port is usually enough for
this, but two ports are often used, particularly in high pressure applications.

Wireline Pressure Control Equipment

The Hunting Cleanline Grease Injection Control Head incorporates an
integral line wiper in the pack off housing at the top of the flow tubes.
Because of its unique configuration, it eliminates the need for a separate
drain hose from the line wiper. All waste grease is returned to the waste
tank in a single hose.

This arrangement offers the best combination of effectiveness, convenience and

above all, cleanliness.

All waste grease is returned to the waste tank in a

single hose.
