Components of a Wellhead

If you work in the oil industry, you probably came into contact with the wellhead at some point. However, many people do not know the main components of the wellhead. Read on to learn about the main components of the wellhead.

Casing Components
There are three main parts of the casing: the head, the spool and the hanger.

The casting head is used to help isolate the surface casing from all external factors. The head also helps to support the weight of workers while drilling.

A casing spool usually consists of several strings, but certain ones have only one string sometimes. During drilling, the casing spool works as an additional sealing device.

There are two types of casing hanger: slip and mandrel. When the pipe gets stuck, the worker will install the sliding hanger, then you can replace the sliding hanger after cutting the casing. If threading on the wellhead is convenient to use, mandrel hanger is the preferable choice.

Tubing Components
The tubing also has two main parts: the head and the hanger.

The tubing head allows the tubing to be suspended. In addition, the tubing head helps maintain high-pressure operations and test for different seals of the well.

As for the hanger, ‘dog nut’ some people also call, seals the wellhead and keeps it locked. There are several types of hangers and adapters that can be used for different purposes, so be sure which one works for your condition.

Pack-off Components
Although they are not so pervasive, the pack-off flange is still worthy to be noted. They are usually installed above the casing head or spool and provide additional seal.

Whether you are a beginner or have been engaged in the oil industry for decades, you should have a clear understanding of the main components of the wellhead.

The Difference Between Wellhead and Christmas Tree

Oilfield Xmas tree and Wellhead are two distinct devices but with several things in common. For instance, they are both of great importance of oil and natural gas production; Valves and other equipment appear in both devices to help control and guide the flow of materials. Out of their similarities, they are often used as the same thing. But, they are two distinct pieces of equipment as mentioned before. To better figure out the differences between these two, keep reading, please. Xmas Tree The Christmas tree, which usually constitutes of valves, spools, choke coils and accessories, is named out of it looks like the decorated tree for Christmas celebration. There are five valves in a Christmas tree: the Kill Wing valve, the Swab valve, the production wing valve, the upper master valve, and the lower master valve. Christmas could be found in a wide range of wells including oil wells, gas wells, water disposal wells, water injection wells, gas injection wells, and sev...

Realization of current detection in automobile electronic system

Here mainly introduces the detection method of electric current, find some factors that are easy to be neglected in the design. First consider two different methods: the detection method based on the magnetic field and the detection method based on the shunt. 1. Magnetic field-based detection methods (represented by current transformers and Hall sensors) have many advantages, such as good isolation and low power loss, which makes it more widely used in power drive technology and high current fields, but It also has shortcomings, such as large size, unsatisfactory compensation characteristics, linearity, and temperature characteristics. 2. Shunt method High-precision low-resistance resistors currently have the characteristics of high power and small size. This method has low cost and high accuracy. More used in automotive electronics. If you want to realize the anti-pinch function, you usually use two methods for detection at the same time. The following takes the window control as an ...
