Definitions
- This invention relates generally to high-pressure blowout preventer testing in subsea environments, and more particularly to a telescoping shearable multi-gage blowout preventer test tool and method for testing different size ram and annular BOP's, or choke and kill lines and valves in one trip.
- Blowout preventer or BOP stacks are connected to oil and gas wells on the sea floor for controlling the well during drilling rig operations.
- the blowout preventer stack will usually include several blowout preventers of various types which are capable of closing in the well in the event of excessive pressures downhole.
- a typical blowout preventer stack may include several ram-type blowout preventers (blind-ram and/or variable ram) , and one or more annular blowout preventers connected above the a ram-type blowout preventers.
- a riser pipe connected to the uppermost blowout preventer extends to the drilling rig at the surface.
- blowout preventer system must be capable, for example, of sealing off the annular space surrounding 5 1/2" and/or 5" O.D. pipe and also 3 1/2" O.D. drill pipe.
- Testing of the blowout preventer stack is typically accomplished by connecting a test plug to a length of drill pipe of the diameter to be tested, running it into the well such that the test plug seals in the well, and then testing the blowout preventer system for that particular size of drill pipe. The first drill string and test plug is retrieved from the well, and the process is repeated for each size of drill pipe used in the system.
- U.S. Patent 4,347,733 discloses a blowout preventer test system utilizing a pipe nipple threaded at both ends and having a central bore through which fluid is conveyed. A reduced orifice at the central portion of the bore constricts fluid flow through the bore.
- the nipple has instrumentation taps through its side wall for attaching a differential pressure recording device.
- Hynes et al, U.S. Patent 4,554,976 discloses a blowout preventer test tool having an upper body and lower sealing body releasably connected by left-hand threads, and a check valve landed in the bore of the tool to prevent downward flow of fluid but allow upward flow and the attached drill pipe for detecting leaks of the sealing tool during pressure testing.
- the upper body is disconnected from the lower body by turning the drill pipe to the right. Raising the drill pipe then causes the upper body to shift a set of right-hand threads into position and move the upper body and drill pipe above the shear ram BOP allowing it to be closed for pressure testing.
- U.S. Patent 4,881,598 discloses a blowout preventer testing apparatus designed to close a smaller drill string pipe and a larger drill string pipe.
- the apparatus includes a first elongated cylindrical testing mandrel having an O.D. of the smaller drill pipe telescopingly received inside of a second elongated cylindrical testing mandrel having an O.D. of the larger drill pipe.
- the mandrels are releasably locked together in an extended position for testing against the first mandrel, and released to a collapsed position for testing against the second mandrel without tripping the apparatus out of the well.

- the release sub and outer tube assembly is connected to the bottom sub in the collapsed position.
- the bottom sub is connected to a test plug and tail pipe assembly and the tool is lowered through the riser pipe and BOP stack to set the test plug in the well.
- a wireline retrievable dart is engaged in the inner tube and drilling fluid flow bypasses the inner tube through fluid passageways between the inner and outer tube assemblies and is vented through ports in the release sub.
- Ram and annular BOPs are tested against a first set of the pipe gage diameters with the tool in its collapsed condition, and then the outer tube assembly is uncoupled from the bottom sub and lifted to its extended position such that another set of the pipe gage diameters are positioned within the BOP stack and the rams and annular BOPs are then tested against the second axially positioned set of corresponding pipe gage diameters.
- Another object of this invention is to provide a shearable multi-gage blowout preventer test tool and method for testing different size rams, variable bore rams, annular BOP's, or choke and kill lines and valves wherein all tubular members of the outer test tube assembly are designed to provide a wall thickness, including the pipe gage diameters, sufficient to allow the tubular members to easily be sheared in the event that it becomes necessary
- Another object of this invention is to provide a longitudinally telescoping shearable multi-gage blowout preventer test tool having different longitudinally spaced pipe gage diameters which can be accurately positioned for testing different selected size rams, variable bore rams, annular BOP's, or choke and kill lines.
- a further object of this invention is to provide a shearable multi-gage blowout preventer test tool utilizing a wireline retrievable dart sealing member which allows full fluid flow while tripping or for safety.

- the motion compensator is engaged and the drill pipe and outer test tube assembly is lifted (telescoped upward) until the stop shoulder in the release sub contacts the stop shoulder at the upper end of the inner tube.
- the inner tube, test plug, and tail pipe assembly will remain stationary.
- the pick up weight will be less this weight (the weight of the tail pipe, test plug and inner tube, i.e., +/- 25,000 lbs.).
- the pick up weight will increase (indicated by the weight indicator) when the outer test tube assembly is extended and contact with the stop shoulder is made. Care should be taken not to pick up more than 5,000 lbs. above the weight of the drill string less weight of the inner tube, test plug, and tail pipe, so that the test plug will not be unseated.
- the weight indicated by the weight indicator is recorded.
- the motion compensator will maintain the BOP test tool in the extended position while the second set of tests are performed.
- the ram and annular BOPs are closed and tested in accordance with the manufacturer's recommended test procedure.
- the ram BOPs (including Variable Bore Ram) are tested against the corresponding pipe gage diameters of the outer test tube assembly, and the annular BOPs are tested against the corresponding pipe gage diameters of the outer test tube assembly.
- tests are performed down the drill pipe. If elected to do so, tests can be performed down the choke or kill lines and pressure will also be on the drill pipe.
- the ram and annular BOPs are opened, and the drill pipe, BOP test tool, test plug, and tail pipe assembly is pulled out of the wellbore. If desired, the dart can be retrieved prior to pulling the drill string.
- test plug is set in the rotary and, if not previously removed, the dart is removed from the test tool with the retrieving tool or wireline overshot.
- the BOP test tool is then cleaned, the left-hand threads of the release sub are made up in the top of the bottom sub with chain tongs, and BOP test tool is now ready for use again when needed.
