Wellhead
Swab Valve
Used to shut off tubing pressure and
allow access to the well for wire line
and coiled tubing units to be rigged up
Wing Valve
Used to shut off the well for most
routine operations
Easy to replace if damaged or cut
out
Choke
Controls the amount of flow desired
from well
Master Valves
The main shut off valves
They are open most of the well’s life
Use as little as possible, especially
the lower master valve
Christmas Tree
Always check tubing pressure and
casing pressure with gauges which
are known to be working properly
When a flange is disconnected:
Inspect and clean ring grove
Use new ring gaskets (Rx or Bx)
Inspect flange bolts for burrs,
nicks, and stretch
When any sealing component of the
wellhead and / or christmas tree is
disassembled and put back together,
a pressure test must be conducted
before additional work can be carried
out

Cement
Tubing
Common Size: 2 3/8 inch and
2 7/8 inch O.D.
Type: jointed or coiled
Tubing normally runs from the
wellhead to production zone
Landing Nipple
Provides a location in the tubing
string for various wire line set and
retrievable flow control devices
Gas lift valve
Subsurface flow control valve
Choke
Pressure recorder
Temperature recorder
Placement and number of landing
nipples should be considered in the
planning stages to allow maximum
versatility
Sliding Sleeve
Provides the ability to circulate
the annulus between the tubing
and casing without unseating the
packer or seal nipple of packer
Can be opened or closed by wire
line
Packer
A device used to seal off the area
between casing and tubing
Type: permanent or retrievable
Placement:
Electric wire line set
Tension set
Weight set
Hydraulically set
No Go Nipple
A sub with a profile to provide a
location for various wire line flow
control devices
Stops tools from falling to bottom
Top Perforation
Use TVD of top perforation to calculate
kill weight fluid requirement
Bottom Perforation
Use MD of bottom perforation when
calculating well bore volume
