Title: Millable pre-installed plug in box and pin connection
Inventor: SORHUS ATLE J
IPC: E21B33/12
Filed: 2007-02-27
Abstract: A tubing plug (28) is preinstalled in a premium connection that allows support for the plug outside the drift dimension of the tubulars above and below. The plug is supported in a rotationally locked manner to avoid turning when being milled out. The plug shape internally comprises gentle sloping walls rather than surfaces in alignment with the longitudinal axis of the tubular to allow smaller cuttings to be produced that can be caught on a magnetic sub or circulated to the surface. Because the plug is supported in a zone outside the drift dimension of the adjacent tubulars, milling out the plug does not reduce the drift of the tubular assembly in which the plug was initially mounted. Seals can be provided for bubble tight sealing around the plug.
