[0002] The blowout preventer core is a tool used in conjunction with a rotary blowout preventer and is an important wellhead device in oilfield workover operations. Its function is to seal the annular space between the tubing and the casing, establish a workover fluid circulation channel, withstand a certain pressure, and complete operations such as sand washing, milling, grinding, and drilling. Since the core can withstand a certain pressure, has good sealing performance, and is made of relatively hard material, its inner diameter is slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the pipe string. When pulling out the pipe string after the construction is completed, due to its inner diameter being slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the pipe string and tightly adhering to the outer wall of the pipe string, it cannot pass through the pipe string coupling with a larger outer diameter and hangs on the pipe string. Currently, the removal of the blowout preventer core still adopts the method of manual hammering, which takes a long time and has a large labor intensity.

[0003] Although the Chinese patent with the publication number CN204195677U discloses a tool for removing a rotary self-sealing core, which can quickly remove the self-sealing core in a rotary self-sealing blowout preventer.

[0022] The present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0023] As Figure 1 shown, the device for extracting the wellhead plug core of an embodiment of the present utility model includes an inner tube 1, an outer tube 2, an upper joint 3, a lower joint 4, a collar 5 and a cable 6. One end of the inner tube 1 is arranged inside the outer tube 2 and can move inside the outer tube 2. The upper joint 3 is arranged at the other end of the inner tube 1 and is located outside the outer tube 2. The lower joint 4 is arranged at one end of the outer tube 2 far from the upper joint 3. Two ends of the cable 6 are respectively connected to the collar 5 and the lower joint 4. The collar 5 includes two semi-circular rings 51 and two fasteners 7. The two semi-circular rings 51 are connected by the two fasteners 7.

[0024] The work string is lifted to the wellhead with the wellhead plug core. The string with the wellhead plug core is disconnected from the wellhead string. The upper joint 3 is threadedly connected to the lower part of the string with the wellhead plug core. The lower joint 4 is threadedly connected to the wellhead string. The two semi-circular rings 51 are assembled into a collar 5 through the two fasteners 7, so that the collar 5 is installed on the upper part of the wellhead plug core. The string with the wellhead plug core is slowly lifted, so that the inner tube 1 moves upward. The collar 5 is pulled by the cable 6 and cannot move upward accordingly, so as to pull the wellhead plug core from the string to the outside of the inner tube 1. Then the collar 5 is removed, the upper joint 3 and the lower joint 4 are disconnected, and the inner tube 1 is drawn out from above the outer tube 2, and the wellhead plug core can be taken off. The device for extracting the wellhead plug core of this embodiment avoids the method of manually hammering to extract the wellhead plug core, improves the work efficiency and reduces the labor intensity.

[0025] Further, a limit seat 8 is arranged at one end of the inner tube 1 far from the upper joint 3. The edge of the limit seat 8 abuts against the inner wall of the outer tube 2. A retaining ring 9 is arranged on the inner wall of one end of the outer tube 2 far from the lower joint 4. The limit seat 8 and the retaining ring 9 cooperate to prevent the inner tube 1 and the outer tube 2 from separating during the operation. Since the edge of the limit seat 8 abuts against the inner wall of the outer tube 2, it can play a certain guiding role, so that the inner tube 1 will not shake significantly when moving.

[0026] In order to further improve the stability of the inner tube 1 when moving, in this embodiment, the retaining ring 9 also abuts against the surface of the inner tube 1. In order to reduce the friction between the retaining ring 9 and the inner tube 1, the contact surface between the retaining ring 9 and the inner tube 1 can be set as an arc surface.

[0027] In addition, the limit seat 8 can also prevent objects from falling into the downhole string at the wellhead. After the blowout preventer core moves from the string to the inner pipe 1, the joint 4 needs to be disassembled first, and then the limit seat 8 is removed before the inner pipe 1 can be pulled out of the outer pipe 2 to remove the blowout preventer core from the inner pipe 1.

[0028] Furthermore, the end of the inner pipe 1 away from the upper joint 3 is provided with an external thread, and the limit seat 8 is provided with an internal thread. The inner pipe 1 is threadedly connected to the limit seat 8, enabling the limit seat 8 to be quickly installed and disassembled, thus improving the operation efficiency.

[0029] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, two first connection rings 41 are provided on the surface of the lower joint 4, a second connection ring 52 is provided on the semi-circular ring 51, and both ends of the cable 6 are respectively connected to the first connection ring 41 and the second connection ring 52. By providing the first connection ring 41 and the second connection ring 52, both ends of the cable 6 can be conveniently fixed, ensuring the stability of the connection and preventing loosening after the cable 6 is tightened.

[0030] Furthermore, the two first connection rings 41 are arranged on the lower joint 4 with an interval of 180 degrees. After the two cables 6 are tightened, they can both remain vertical, and the cables 6 will not generate a deflecting moment on the lower joint 4, which is beneficial to maintaining the stability of the blowout preventer core removal device.

[0031] Correspondingly, the second connection ring 52 is arranged in the middle of the semi-circular ring 51.

[0032] In this embodiment, the inner diameter of the collar 5 is smaller than the outer diameter of the blowout preventer core. After the cable 6 is tightened, the collar 5 will not slip off the blowout preventer core. Therefore, the collar 5 also needs to be designed as two detachable semi-circular rings 51 so that the collar 5 can be smoothly arranged on the blowout preventer core.

[0033] In this embodiment, the outer pipe 2 is threadedly connected to the lower joint 4 to facilitate the installation and disassembly of the lower joint 4 and improve the operation efficiency.

[0034] In this embodiment set, the fastener 7 is a bolt. As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the two ends of the semi-circular ring 51 are respectively provided with a first connection seat 53 and a second connection seat 54. A through hole 531 is provided on the first connection seat 53, and a threaded hole 541 is provided on the second connection seat 54. The fastener 7 passes through the through hole 531 and is screwed into the threaded hole 541. The first connection seat 53 on one semi-circular ring 51 is connected to the second connection seat 54 on the other semi-circular ring 51. By simply screwing the fastener 7, the installation and disassembly of the collar 5 can be achieved, and the operation is very simple.

[0035] In this embodiment, the cable 6 is a steel wire rope, which can withstand a large tensile force and ensure that it does not break during operation.

[0036] Although the present utility model has been described with reference to the preferred embodiments, various modifications can be made thereto and components thereof can be replaced with equivalents without departing from the scope of the present utility model. In particular, as long as there is no structural conflict, the technical features mentioned in each embodiment can be combined in any way. The present utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the text, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
