Abstract:
The present invention is related to a downhole tool having a flapper valve assembly for controlling the backflow of fluid into a tubing string. The downhole tool includes a first sleeve slidably disposable within at least a portion of the flapper valve assembly and the downhole tool. The downhole tool can also include a second sleeve slidably disposed within the downhole tool. The present invention is also related to a method of using the downhole tool. The method includes the step of positioning the downhole tool in a wellbore. Once the downhole tool is positioned in the wellbore, the first sleeve is shifted to interact with the flapper valve assembly.

Claim (Index 11):
A method, the method comprising:\n positioning a downhole tool in a wellbore, the downhole tool comprising:\n a flapper valve assembly for controlling the backflow of fluid into a tubing string; \n a first sleeve slidably disposable within at least a portion of the flapper valve assembly and the downhole tool, the first sleeve slidable from a first position to a second position, the first sleeve having a single, solid body free of any radial directed openings; and \n a deformable portion incorporated into the first sleeve that is yieldably deformed to maintain the first sleeve in substantially the second position; \n shifting the first sleeve in the downhole tool to interact with the flapper valve assembly.
