Abstract:
In one of its example aspects the technology disclosed herein concerns a wellhead lubricator. In an example embodiment and mode the wellhead lubricator comprises a yoke housing; a first clamp; a second clamp; and, an extensible actuator. The yoke housing comprises a first end configured for connection to a barrel housing and a second end configured for connection to a wellhead. The yoke housing defines a yoke cavity through which a barrel rod extends along an axis of the yoke cavity. The first clamp is situated in the yoke cavity and is configured for selective engagement with the barrel rod. The second clamp is also situated in the yoke cavity and is configured for selective engagement with the barrel rod. The extensible actuator is connected to at least one of the first clamp and the second clamp. The extensible actuator, the first clamp, and the second clamp are configured to be operated in coordinated manner to provide translation of the barrel rod along the axis of the yoke cavity.
