WELLHEAD AND CONTROL STACK PRESSURE TEST PLUG TOOL

摘要

A test plug tool for use in testing a pressure integrity of a pressure control stack mounted to a wellhead, including a joint between a casing and a casing support in the wellhead. The test plug tool includes a test plug of an appropriate diameter used to pressure test the pressure control stack as well as a joint between any one of a surface casing and the wellhead, an intermediate casing and an intermediate casing mandrel, and a production casing and a production casing mandrel. The pressure integrity of the wellhead is ensured at each stage of well drilling and well completion, and safety is improved. Optionally, a backpressure valve permits pressurized fluid that leaks below the test plug tool to flow upwardly through a central bore in a landing tool that is secured to the test plug tool to permit detection of the leak.
