Description
Baker’s Sur-Set™ Selective Seating Nipples
are used to place downhole flow control devices in
the completion string by means of a lock mandrel
and a selective running tool. Sur-Set Selective
Seating Nipples allow for a single size seal bore di-
ameter to be installed in the tubing string from top
to bottom; thus, providing a high degree of versa-
tility to the completion.
By using a single sealbore size along the com-
pletion string, the completion’s internal diameter is
maximized, which in turns, allows for a larger flow
area and full-bore (not restrictive) access to the
bottom of the well for remedial through tubing
tools.
These nipples contain a locating groove and a
locking groove. The locating groove is used to lo-
cate the running tool in the right position and to
provide support for the jarring action required to
set the flow control device. The locking groove is
used to lock the flow control device in place when
it is set.
When running the flow control device in the well
to set it in the Selective Nipple, the lock will pass
completely through as many nipples of the same
size until the desired location is reached. When the
flow control device is brought back up through the
desired nipple, the Selective Running Tool trips
and uncovers its collapsible no-go. The assembly
is then lowered back down until the no-go device
comes in contact with the locating groove of the
seating nipple. Downward jarring using the wireline
begins the expansion of the locking dogs into the
nipple’s locking groove and sets the device. The
large bearing area and the angle of the bevel are
what enable Sur-Set locks to withstand high pres-
sures without damage.
