Abstract:
1. A method of transporting a capping stack having a first capping stack component and a second capping stack component to a wellbore location comprising: mounting the first capping stack component onto a first standard skid and mounting a second capping stack component onto a second standard skid; loading the first standard skid and the second standard skid onto an aircraft; mating the first standard skid and the second standard skid to a corresponding structural member of the aircraft; removing the first standard skid and second standard skid from the aircraft after the aircraft arrives at a landing location; aligning the first capping stack component and the second capping stack component; coupling the first capping stack component and the second capping stack component; performing a fluid pressure integrity test on a connection between the first capping stack component and the second capping stack component; deploying the first capping stack component and the second capping stack component to the wellbore location; and lifting the first capping stack component and the second capping stack component about a horizontal-to-vertical pivot system, wherein the horizontal-to-vertical pivot system comprises a hinge and a pressure test stump.
