Abstract:
A rubber bullet-shaped cylindrical device that functions to non-invasively plug a gushing pipe of high pressure oil. The steel belted inflatable rubber plugging device with attached high pressure hoses is inserted into a gushing oil well pipe while it pumps shipboard a high pressure stream of recycled oil itself that will not freeze at the gushing oil well to fight or knife through the oil and the pressure of the oil gushing to assist with inserting and descending the apparatus into the pipe while the operator follows a sequence of operational steps. A hose that has a vacuum applied to reduce the size of the inflatable bladder to allow it to fit it into the pipe unrestricted until it stops at the right location then recycled oil that will not freeze is pumped into the bladder to seal the oil well and to allow the cement pouring operation.

RELATED APPLICATIONS 
     The present application is a continuation-in-part application of United States provisional patent application Ser. No. 61/400,992, filed Aug. 5, 2010, for HIGH PRESSURE OIL PIPE BULLET PLUG, by John K. Webb, Jr., John K. Webb, III, included by reference herein and for which benefit of the priority date is hereby claimed. 
    
    
     FIELD OF THE INVENTION 
     The present invention relates to an apparatus that works in a closed system that is designed to stop the flow of oil and other liquids under high pressure facilitating the permanent plugging of a gushing oil well, and, more particularly, to stop oil gushing from an out of control deepwater oil well. 
     DESCRIPTION OF THE RELATED ART 
     Controlling the flow of oil, liquids and gases that may have sand or gravel and other materials during subterranean oil well completion is very important in the Related art referenced. There is no mention of using related art in subsea oil wells from the patents referenced, and the devices and methods that they use are not for permanently plugging an out-of-control well on land or subsea. 
     US patent 20060108115 entitled “System and Method for fracturing and gravel packing a wellbore”, relates to completing a subterranean oil or gas well, and discusses using a one-way flow device or check valve, called the flow control valve that is used during completion of a new well. US patent number 20050194143 entitled “One trip perforating, cementing, and sand Management apparatus and method” discusses stopping fluid flow through a landing assembly that has a plug that is releasable and a flow actuated shifting mechanism that is adapted to selectively stop fluid flow through an orifice and this is all used during the completion of a subterranean oil well. US patent number 20050000692, “Spiral tubular tool and method” discusses a down hole device that contains a one-way valve so that a flow stream from the well bore is allowed to flow in a first direction but not from flowing in a second direction and also sealingly engaging an elastomeric member against the inner wall of an oil well casing. U.S. Pat. No. 4,620,593, “Oil recovery system and method”, discusses how the amount of radiation controls the flow of oil during oil well production from a petroleum-bearing subterranean formation. U.S. Pat. No. 4,279,304, entitled “Wire line tool release Method” mentions forcing oil through a damping orifice or a restriction and also mentioned is allowing well fluid in the well bore to flow between a tool and a hole. 
     Referenced related art patents are for building and completing a subterranean oil well rather than for permanently plugging them, but they are relied upon for their capabilities in restricting flow in a pipe or tubular. 
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     A deepwater oil well riser pipe is gushing oil into the ocean at approximately 10,000 pounds per square inch (PSI) with approximately 53,000 barrels of oil per day coming out of a 21 inch riser pipe. Not having an early response or having to wait over 1 day, let alone 90 days on a major deepwater oil spill is not acceptable when the equipment is simple to use and available to immediately and permanently stop the oil leak possibly within a number hours instead of months. There is a chance that it will probably happen in the future accidentally through incompetence or intentionally through negligence or terrorism. There are too many variables to take a chance and not have the equipment and solution waiting in place. If it is needed to drill in the ocean then we should have what it takes to fix problems and fix them immediately when it happens. Drilling extra holes in the seabed to pour heavy mud and cement is extra time and money and does not guarantee success and would be unnecessary if the bullet plug is ready to deploy. Having ships available to collect oil from the leak or leaks does not solve the problem and more oil escapes into the sea water or environment. Long-term effects will be for years with a large oil spill for animals, plant life, and human beings, and the loss of a 40 billion dollar seafood industry and hundreds of thousands of jobs. A compact easy to install oil well plugging device is needed, and it is also a backup to the blow-out preventer that is supposed to be the last line of defense against a leaking deepwater oil well. 
     Pouring heavy mud and cement down the throat of the blown-out well to do what the industry calls a static kill. Drilling two relief wells as a backup just in case the blown-out well cannot be sealed, and they will need to also have heavy mud and cement poured into them if they have reached the original oil well hole. Installing a 150,000 pound cap or large heavy object or large heavy hollow container on the ocean floor over the oil well riser or using a cofferdam to stem the flow of oil to be collected by ships is not an effective solution. The High Pressure Oil Pipe Bullet Plug is not considered a cap, and it is intended to permanently seal the leaking oil well and not temporarily to prevent having to do more dangerous undersea drilling at a later time. 
     Any solution that leaves the oil well leaking or gushing proves very costly and dangerous to the environment, oil industry personal and people who live on the coast near the oil spill. Hurricanes sometimes prevent progress of a process that takes more than a month like drilling relief wells that could take over 90 days. There needs to be quick and decisive way to plug the oil leak with a potential of 53,000 barrels of oil leaking into the sea each day, time is of the essence. Drilling relief wells, pouring heavy mud and cement, installing a 150,000 pound cap over the oil riser, installing a large heavy hollow container over the well, and using a cofferdam to stem the flow of oil have shown to be very costly and cannot be considered a quick response. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     In accordance with the present invention, there is provided a functional bullet-shaped plugger device used to temporarily plug the pipe&#39;s oil flow below riser&#39;s damage for an ample time so that injected cement will cure to permanently seal oil well from installed Bullet Plug&#39;s top. The Bullet Plug is used to counter and stabilize this gushing oil with high velocity/high pressure oil stream from ship(s) during and after its installation. After installation is that time for cement pouring and curing inside the oil well riser. The present invention uses shipboard equipment and connects to hoses that could be the same equipment that could be used for a ground oil well if it was on land. The steel-belted ribbed rubber bladder is proportionally large enough depending on the size of the oil well pipe to enter and go to a certain depth with some assistance from oil knife or stream being pumped at the well&#39;s gushing oil from the pipe and nozzle in the center of the bullet plug to reduce pressure and allow ease of insertion, and also getting some assistance from the sectional struts. The collapsed bladder is finally inflated with oil to expand 360 degrees from a lower pressure shipboard oil pump when the bullet plug is at the proper depth in the oil well pipe while maintaining at a high pressure the oil knife or stream flow at the oil well coming out of the center of the bullet plug lowering the pressure of the oil well while bullet plug is expanded up against the inside walls of the oil pipe to plug the oil well and hold steady while cement is poured over the bullet plug to permanently stop flow of oil or kill the oil well and prevent millions of gallons of oil from leaking into the sea. 
     It would be advantageous to provide a reliable oil well plugging device. 
     It would also be advantageous to provide a fast deployable low cost oil well plugging device that could be standard equipment in the oil exploration industry. 
     It would further be advantageous to provide an oil plugging device and system that uses the recycled oil from the well that will not freeze to fight the oil from the well. 
     It would further be advantageous to provide an oil plugging device and system that uses the recycled oil from the well that will not freeze to inflate the bullet plug to plug the oil well pipe.

     DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT 
       FIG. 1  shows one application of the invention used when Oil well control has failed at a subsea oil well, and a device is used to plug or kill the subsea oil well that may be leaking oil and liquids from well stream in excess of 10,000 pounds per square inch (PSI).  FIG. 1  is a perspective view of a bullet plug  10  inserted into an oil well riser top  36  pipe in accordance with the invention, and this is prior to plugging an oil well. There are 3 shipboard hose connections to the bullet plug  10  from shipboard equipment  92   FIG. 9  that is typically available on the market or commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) support equipment. This invention is manufactured going from the drawings or figures herein after the dimensions are added where applicable, and dimensions are scaled as a whole or individually based on a preference or on the inside diameter of the pipe that needs plugging, but there are dimensions that have been determined to work for an oil pipe with a 21 inch inside diameter. This invention is intended for a user in the oil industry to have the device and support equipment ready to deploy in case of a well blowout during an oil well completion, testing, or workover. It is conceivable to use this invention for restricting any flow of high pressure liquids that comes from a pipe or tubular that have no way of normally turning off due to a malfunction of a valve or other scenarios, but this problem is solved with a device that not only expands or inflates a bladder to plug and close a pipe or tubular, but also it will need help provided indirectly by the device itself to lower the pressure coming from the well stream pipe by indirectly outputting a stream of oil or liquids like it does from the center of the bullet plug  10  that is set at a pressure that is higher than what it is fighting in the well stream pipe or an out of control liquid from a pipe or tubular. Being able to independently expand or reduce the size of the bladder while fighting the gushing well stream allows the device to more easily penetrate the pressure that it is being presented. The following shows more on how everything with the invention works. 
     The two main hoses input port hose one  72  and a input output port hose two  74   FIG. 1  are connected to shipboard equipment  92  each having an inline well valve that is near the top of deepwater oil well pipe  124  or riser top  36  after bullet plug  10  has closed or cutoff the bypass  42  by expanding the bladder  22  up against the inner wall of the pipe and then last strut is pinned by pin  38  and input port hose one  72  is still supplying the high pressure oil from shipboard to fight the pressure from the subsea well stream. A input output port hose two  74  with inline well valve four  88   FIG. 1  attached in series, and cement hose  54   FIG. 5  from cement pump  122   FIG. 9  are the other two hoses attached to shipboard equipment  92  shown in  FIG. 9 . 
     A shipboard bidirectional valve  86  is switched to a vacuum pump  80  to collapse or shrink the size of the bladder  22  to its minimum size inwardly and up against an input output port pipe  108   FIG. 3  using its bladder hole  110   FIG. 7  that has the input output port pipe  108  going through the center of it that provides or is a conduit for the high pressure oil from the output port and nozzle  28  that comes from the shipboard pump two  56  when turned on and with shipboard valve one  82  and well valve two  84  both open. The nozzle on a output port and nozzle  28  is set by either turning it clockwise or counterclockwise to an optimal high pressure spray pattern that is set to use for fighting a gushing oil well pipe to help gain a stable entry and to finally gain a certain distance down the pipe, and a spray pattern based on the size of the pipe and the pressure from the well stream. 
     An undersea robot positions the bullet plug  10  at an angle to the side of the gushing oil well pipe oil stream with shipboard pump  56  turned on just before entry into the well and adjusted to a pumping pressure that is estimated to be higher than the pressure coming out of the subsea oil well pipe or a deepwater oil well pipe  124 , and the shipboard pump can be adjusted accordingly to pump instrumentation pressure readings. The input port hose one  72  using coupler  18  as hose coupler connected this hose to a input port one hole  14   FIG. 2  or the top threaded end of input output port pipe  108   FIG. 2  of the bullet plug  10 . A second hose for deflates bladder  22   FIG. 1  to its smallest size by vacuum and bullet plug  10  is now ready to enter the gushing well pipe. The input output port hose two  74  using coupler  20  as a hose coupler connects this hose to a input output port two  16   FIG. 3  that is intended to protect a bladder stem  112  on a ports containment holder and bladder restraint  46  of the bullet plug  10 . Also attached to the side of the input port hose one  72  is a cement hose  54   FIG. 5 , a fiber optic cable on connector  44   FIG. 2 , and a strut  34   FIG. 5  that is bolted to the ports containment holder and bladder restraint  46  that is used like a metal restraining cap for the top side of the bladder  22  that contains the bladder while it is expanding the ribbed  24  bladder  22  up against the inside of the well stream pipe to prevent having any sizable movement of the bladder up or down or towards the ports containment holder with a nosecone and bladder restraint  26  on the other end when the device is stationary and getting ready to cutoff a oil bypass that is at the moment being used by the gushing well. 
     The strut  34  connects to the strut slot and bracket  98   FIG. 4 , and the strut mounting bolts  206  secure the first strut to the ports containment holder and bladder restraint  46  at the top of the bullet plug  10  when vertically in the oil well pipe to plug. The strut slot and bracket on the top side of the bullet plug  10  is hinged to allow the strut to move back and forward and may be of some benefit if a well pipe is bent while it is attached to the bullet plug  10 . The bullet plug is inserted into the deepwater oil well pipe  124  by the undersea robot, and bullet plug  10  moves down the pipe to the proper or predetermined depth and if the length down the pipe is longer than a strut  34  then another strut will have to be added after pinning the last one with pin  34  to the oil pipe or riser top  36 . This allows the undersea robot to add additional struts for safety as the bullet plug  10  proceeds down the gushing oil well. The resistance that the bullet plug is getting from the gushing oil well has been reduced by oil or liquid that is coming out of the output port and nozzle  28  from the shipboard pump two  56  and with the contoured design of the nosecone and bladder restraint  26 , and all of this helps in making it much easier to control the robot is holding. Once the last strut  34  is pinned by pin  38  then it is time for the bladder  22  of the bullet plug  10  to be expanded and then finalize the permanent plugging of the well. 
     The plugger expanded  52   FIG. 5  shows a bladder  22  of bullet plug  10  in the expanded state after being switched from a shipboard vacuum pump  80   FIG. 1  that shrinks the bladder  22  to the most reduced size state, to a pump two  66  that expands the a bladder  22  to its maximum size state. While the bladder  22  is expanding from the recycled oil from a shipboard oil tank  90   FIG. 9  by a shipboard pump one  66  that starts reducing the well stream oil bypass  42  then finally the bullet plug totally cuts off this oil bypass  42  while the output port and nozzle  28  continues to output and push with high pressure recycled oil or other liquids using the shipboard pump two  56   FIG. 1  that is spraying oil through the nozzle and against the gushing well to fight the pressure and prevent the now stationary bullet plug  10  that has reached the desired distance in the pipe from being pushed up or out of the well pipe by the gushing oil well while the high pressure oil from shipboard pump two  56  is continuing to assist the expanded bullet plug  10  by lowing the pressure of the well stream or oil pipe gusher. The bladder  22  is now up against the inside wall of the well pipe or tubular, and pressure for this being maintained and pumped with a lower pressure oil or liquids around 300 pounds per square inch (PSI), but giving it the maximum allowed pressure for the steel-belted ribbed  24  rubber bladder  22  that has to maintain enough pressure for a period of time up against the inside of the pipe while the high pressure shipboard oil  48  or other liquids output from the output port and nozzle  28  and continues to lower the pressure from the gushing oil well that is trying to push harder against the bottom of the expanded bullet plug  10  now that there is no well stream bypass  42 . After a short period of time, the cement mix slurry from cement pump  22  is pumped through the cement hose  54   FIG. 5 . While maintaining the required pressure of 300 pounds per square inch (PSI) or whatever the maximum pressure the bladder can take from shipboard pump one  66  into the bladder  22  that is now stationary and 360 degrees up against the inner wall of the deepwater oil well pipe  124 , A higher pressure from shipboard pump two  56  is maintained than what the gushing well stream has with the cement mix slurry being poured on top of the bullet plug  10  by cement pump  122 , and to begin filling up the pipe with cement slurry that will eventually go around the hoses, fiber optic cable and any struts to just above pin  35  of the last or only strut or at the top of the oil well pipe from a cement hose  54  that is attached to the input output port hose two  74  or input port hose one  72  and the end of the cement hose  54  is located near the top of the bullet plug  10  open and not connected to anything. Once it is determined that the cement has cured after waiting on cement (WOC) then it is time to turn off the shipboard pump two  56  and let the pressure from the oil well close the check valve  116 . 
     A Check valve  116   FIG. 10  is normally closed under spring tension and opens under high pressure from shipboard pump two  56  and this flap or check valve  116  is intended to close shut against the metallic stopper  120  from the high pressure well stream coming in the opposite direction of shipboard pumped oil stream when shipboard pump two  56  is turned off the only pressure left is hydrostatic pressure from the residual oil in the input port hose one  72  that can be pumped out shipboard, but this should not prevent the check valve  116  from closing, but it may be fixed with a wireline if there is any problem or it gets stuck due to a malfunction. The cement has cured then the well is plugged. The check valve  116  that is closed will not allow any gushing oil from the well stream to come into the input port hose one  72  after the shipboard pump two  56  is turned off and then shipboard valve one  82  and well valve two  84  are closed. 
     The other important shipboard equipment connection by hose is an input output port hose two  74  that supplies the bladder  22  of the bullet plug  10  a vacuum for deflating or shrinking it to its smallest size and with its contoured nosecone design during movement against the gushing oil or liquid in the pipe or inflating it to its largest size with oil or liquid to make it stationary and it grips the inside of the pipe and stop movement while spray pattern of the output port and nozzle  28  located at the bottom and center of bullet plug  10  continues to fight the deep well oil  50  or well stream prior to letting the cement flow at the top of the bullet plug  10 . An inline well valve four  88   FIG. 1  is connected to the input output port hose two  74  that is used in case there is a problem at the subsea or land oil well or at the end of the plugging operation. The cement is cured then the input output port hose two  74  connected to well valve four  88  is closed by the undersea robot along with the check valve  116  that closed automatically from the pressure of the gushing oil well. The input port hose one  72 , and the input output port hose two  74  are removed from the inline valves if no longer required with well valves shut. 
     Initially, and before entry into a well pipe, a shipboard valve  86   FIG. 1  is switched to a shipboard vacuum pump  80  that is pumping to reduce or shrink the a bladder  22  of the bullet plug  10  to its minimum outside diameter then the bullet plug  10  is lowered to a desired or estimated distance into the pipe preferably after any damaged area and deep enough to be an effective plug as the high pressure oil being pumped from a shipboard pump two  56  through output port and nozzle  28  continues to fight the gushing oil from the well, then it is time to expand bladder  22  with oil or other liquids to an acceptable pounds per square inch (PSI) that allows the bladder  22  bullet plug  10  to hold as tight as possible up against the inside of wellbore pipe at 360 degrees at a maximum PSI specification allowed as input port hose one  72  continues to supply the bullet plug  10  high pressure recycled oil or other liquids to fight a well stream blowout, and this is done by switching the shipboard bidirectional valve  86  to the low pressure oil from shipboard pump one  66   FIGS. 1 and 9  that uses recycled oil from shipboard oil tank  90 . 
     A Shipboard valve one  82  switches high pressure shipboard oil from a shipboard pump two  56  to the bullet plug  10  through the input port hose one  72  if well valve two  84  is open or turned on. Well valve  84  has the continuation of input port hose one  72  connected and the other end of input port hose one  72  is connected to an input port one  14  of a ports containment holder and bladder restraint  46   FIGS. 3 and 4  of the bullet plug  10 . Hoses at from well valves connect to coupler one  18  and coupler two  20  on the bullet plug  10 . 
     The bullet plug  10   FIG. 1  has an input port hose one  72  and an input output hose two  74  connected to it from shipboard, and it also has a cement hose  54   FIG. 5  for dispensing cement when the time comes from cement pump  122   FIG. 9  and it is not physically connected to the bullet plug  10   FIG. 1 , but it is attached to one of the hoses that go with the bullet plug  10  from shipboard equipment  92   FIG. 9  into the oil well along with a number of strut  34   FIGS. 1 and 5  sections that go with the hoses or installed by undersea robot. The number of struts is determined by how deep the bullet plug  10  will go into the oil well pipe and extra struts  34  sections can be added by undersea robot. 
     The shipboard bidirectional valve  86   FIGS. 1 and 9  is initially switched by procedure to the shipboard vacuum pump  80   FIGS. 1 and 9  to collapse and evacuate the bladder  22  shown in  FIG. 1 . A bypass  42  is allowing oil to pass through to the top of the deepwater oil well pipe  124  on  FIG. 1 . Then with the high pressure shipboard oil  48   FIGS. 1 and 5 , shipboard pump two  56   FIGS. 1 and 9  pumping oil through the bullet plug  10   FIGS. 1 and 5  and out of the output port and nozzle  28   FIGS. 1 and 5  next to the nosecone and bladder restraint  26   FIGS. 1 and 2  in order to decrease the resistance of the gushing oil well or cut through it like a knife or in this case an oil knife until it has reached the proper depth in the deepwater oil well pipe  124   FIGS. 1 and 5 . 
     Strut  34   FIGS. 1 and 5  sections are added depending on how far to go down the deepwater oil well pipe  124 . The first strut  34  is bolted onto the strut slot and bracket  98  located on the ports containment holder and bladder restraint  46   FIG. 4 , and the last strut  34  has a pin  38  inserted at the riser top  36   FIG. 1  by the undersea robot. If the strut  34  section is 20 feet long and it is determined that the bullet plug  10  must go to at least 200 feet down the oil well pipe then 10 sections are needed then the bidirectional valve  86   FIGS. 1 and 9  is then switched to shipboard pump one  66   FIGS. 1 and 9  in order to inflate the bullet plug  10  with oil into bladder  22   FIG. 7  and  FIG. 8 . The bladder  22  expands 360 degrees and cuts off the bypass  42  as shown in  FIG. 5 . The oil output pumped against the oil well from the nozzle reduces the pressure, and the each rib  24  of the bladder  22   FIG. 7  is pushing up against the inside diameter of the oil well pipe cutting off the flow from the gushing oil well and allowing the cement pouring operation to begin while maintaining a proper oil pressure in the bladder  22  and pumping high pressure oil into the well from the nozzle  28   FIG. 5 . 
     Shipboard and inline valves near the oil well riser  40   FIGS. 1 and 5  are used in the procedure or sequence used to finally plug the deep oil well pipe with the bullet plug  10   FIGS. 1 and 9 , and finally turn off the flow of oil at well valve two  84   FIG. 1  and cut the hose when the cement dries, and also the valves may be needed in case something malfunctions. A cement pump  122  in  FIG. 9  has a third hose that goes near the top of bullet plug  10  into riser  40  for filling up the oil pipe with cement after bullet plug  10  seals the deepwater oil well pipe  124   FIGS. 1 and 5 . 
       FIG. 2  is a perspective view of the bullet plug  10   FIGS. 1 ,  2 ,  3 ,  5 , and  10  in accordance with invention. The ports containment holder and bladder restraint  46   FIGS. 1 ,  2 ,  3 ,  4 , and  5  has an input output port two hole  100   FIG. 4  for bladder stem  112   FIGS. 7 and 8  and an input port one hole  102   FIG. 4  for the input output port pipe  108   FIGS. 3 and 10 . The input output port pipe  108   FIGS. 3 and 10  goes through the center of the bladder  22   FIGS. 7 and 8  in the bladder hole  110   FIGS. 7 and 8  exposing the outside screw threads on both ends that are sticking out on both ends of the bladder  22  during assembly. The inside threaded hole of the input port one hole  102   FIG. 4  of the ports containment holder and bladder restraint  46   FIG. 4  is screwed onto the outside threads of the input output port pipe  108   FIG. 3  on one end. Nut number two  114   FIG. 3  screws onto input output port pipe  108  then is spot-welded. The ports containment holder and bladder restraint  46  is screwed on first to the input output port pipe  108  that has inside screw threads in the hole of the input port one hole  102   FIG. 4 . Another nut number three  134   FIG. 2  screws on the bladder stem  112  or input output port two  16   FIG. 2  that has outside threads. There is a sensor connector mounting hole  96   FIG. 4  for a panel mount waterproof connector  44  shown mounted on  FIGS. 2 and 3 , and an opening  32  for a sensor on  FIG. 2 , and it is connected by cable  94   FIG. 3 . The strut slot and bracket  98   FIG. 4  accepts the struts that are in sections that assist the bullet plug  10  with insertion and descending into deep oil well that is being pushed into the oil well by the robot as the input port hose one  72   FIG. 1  provides high pressure oil from the shipboard pump two  56   FIG. 1  that goes through the input output port pipe  108   FIG. 3  then the output port and nozzle  28   FIGS. 1 ,  2 , and  3  to fight the incoming oil from the deepwater oil well. A number of struts needs to be determined for the approximate depth or to assist the bullet plug  10  in getting beyond the bad part of the deep oil well. Strut  34   FIGS. 1 and 5  metallic bars are secured with the strut mounting bolts  106   FIG. 5 . 
     The nosecone and bladder restraint  26   FIG. 2  and  FIG. 6  is screwed on to the threaded input output port pipe  108  until is hits a stopper or the excess metal on the outside of the input output port pipe  108  or pipe. The nut number one  30  is screwed onto the input output port pipe  108  and spot-welded. The output port and nozzle  28  screws on to the input output port pipe  108 . Spray pattern of output port and nozzle  28  is preset. 
     All aforementioned parts, except for shipboard equipment  92   FIG. 9  and equipment already existing at the oil well riser  40   FIGS. 1 and 5 , are parts that are manufactured by machine shop or someone skilled in the art. The bladder  22   FIG. 7  and  FIG. 8  is more specialized and would be done by a company that is skilled in the art of making aircraft tires that have a much higher pounds per square inch (PSI) than the ones used on automobiles. Typically, electronic Computer-aided drawings (CAD) of the bullet plug  10  pieces or parts like some of the figures after adding dimensions as US and metric of the bullet plug  10  are submitted to modern machine shops that have Computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) to automate as much as possible the production of bullet plug  10  parts  FIG. 3 . Drawings for manufacturing will have the dimensions to accurately machine the parts, and some dimensions can be changed individually to suit the application or pipe. 
     Except for the spot welding and steel-belted bladder  22  there is no other equipment necessary to build and assemble the bullet plug  10 . Aforementioned shipboard oil  48   FIG. 1 , shipboard pump one  66   FIG. 1 , low pressure oil pump, shipboard vacuum pump  80   FIG. 1 , high pressure shipboard pump two  56   FIG. 1 , shipboard cement pump  122  for injection of cement with cement hose  54   FIG. 5  and input port hose one  72   FIGS. 1 and 5  and input output port hose two  74   FIGS. 1 and 5  is available. The bullet plug  10  assembled is tested by inflating bladder  22  with air to maximum pressure when plugger expanded  52   FIG. 5  inside and outside of a pipe. The size of the bullet plug  10  is proportional to the size of the oil well pipe inside diameter. Approximately 5 feet longer or shorter in length for a 21 inch pipe and an outside diameter of approximately 18 inches smaller or bigger when deflated. 
       FIG. 10  is the bullet plug  10  as in  FIG. 2  showing, but  FIG. 10  is showing a cutaway view of the nosecone and bladder restraint  26  and the internal input output port pipe  108  that is threaded on both ends and is used for containing the bladder like a tire rim on an automobile and also have a coupler one  18  and a hose connection to pump  56  for high pressure oil that is fighting the gushing well before and after the bladder  22  in expanded or inflated with oil. The last or only strut  34  is pinned and cement is being poured on top side of the bullet plug  10  after the bladder  22  is inflated enough with oil to be stable and stationary and does not move then a sufficient quantity maybe filled with cement slurry all the way up the pipe just before the strut pin on the last strut then there will be waiting on cement (WOC). After a period of time the cement is cured and there is no more need to maintain pressure in the bladder  22  and the shipboard pump one  66  is turned off and the well valve four  88  is closed stops supplying pressure of oil to the bladder  22 . The check valve  116  that is shown inside input output port pipe  108   FIG. 10  that has a spring loaded flap hinge  118  and a metal stopper  120  that is welded that seals the flow of oil when the oil knife or stream from the output port and nozzle  28  stops by closing either shipboard valve one  82  or well valve two  84   FIGS. 1 and 9 , and this would cause the oil under pressure from the deepwater oil well to overcome the hydrostatic pressure of any oil remaining in the input port hose one  72  then a flap or check valve  116  slams shut against the metallic stopper  120   FIG. 10  that is welded or machined on the inside of input output port pipe  108 . Turning off well valve two  84   FIG. 1  is mainly used for the final step of sealing or plugging the well. Hoses are cut after the cement dries and with the well plugged, the well valves are turned off. 
     The bullet plug invention is a low cost device that is easy to assemble and deploy that is used to plug an out-of-control subsea or land oil well that starts gushing during well completion, well testing, or well workover. The bullet plug device with two main ports for hoses, has a steel-belted bladder  22  with a hole in the center or void space for a threaded pipe that goes through it. The bladder of the bullet plug is deflated to allow the least resistance possible in the well pipe by reducing the outside dimensions close to the diameter of the nosecone and bladder restraint  26  by using an external vacuum upon its entry into the well stream with shipboard vacuum pump  80  instrumentation showing it completely deflated before entry into the pipe then proceeding with insertion or movement to a certain distance into a well pipe by robot holding the hoses or strut and pushing it past any damage in the pipe and enough room for cementing from a hose that is near the top of the bullet plug and pinning the struts as a backup to holding the bullet plug stationary, in addition an expanded bladder and oil stream provided externally to the bullet plug for fighting the oil well gusher to reduce the high pressure that would make plugging the well impossible without it. 
     The device is designed to simultaneously fight an oil gusher through the center of the bullet plug  10  and bladder  22  with high pressure oil or other liquids while allowing the bullet plug to remain stationary not only to pin a metal strut, but also while the lower pressure shipboard pump is inflating the bladder that starts reducing the oil bypass around the plug is a critical time for making sure that the gusher is being pushed down by the oil being pumped externally through the bullet plug nozzle at the same or higher pressure to stop or push the gushing oil or gas downward enough while the cement that is being poured on the top of the bullet plug is curing. The bullet plug expanded up against as tight as possible alone cannot be considered a guarantee that the pressure will from the gushing oil or gas well will overcome it and push it out of the well possible causing damage the well and other equipment without having the stream of oil from an external or shipboard pump  56  simultaneously fighting the gushing oil well then being able to permanently seal it off the broken well with cement that is cured and with addition help from the check valve and struts and then remove all external support equipment except the well valves.
