Patent ID: 8646531

Claim:
A tubular actuating system, comprising: a tubular; a plurality of same plugs runnable within the tubular; an actuator disposed within the tubular; and a flapper disposed at the actuator configured to be repositionable relative to the actuator between an unseated position and a seated position upon passage of a second of the plurality of same plugs but not upon passage of a first of the plurality of same plugs, the actuator being configured to be directly modified to engage the second of the plurality of same plugs in response to engagement of the first of the plurality of same plugs with the actuator and passage of the first of the plurality of same plugs from a first end of the actuator to a second end of the actuator, the tubular actuator being configured to actuate in response to pressure built against the flapper in a same direction as the plugs were run.
