Introduction

Side Pocket Mandrel Catalog ■ Introduction v

Schlumberger simplifies selection of theappropriate Camco side pocket mandrelby designating most of the special features of each model in the mandrelnomenclature. The letter K at thebeginning of a mandrel nomencla-ture designates a K-series mandrelthat receives 1-in. [25.4-mm] ODretrievable side pocket valves andaccessories. An M at the beginning of amandrel nomenclature designates anM-series mandrel that receives 11⁄2-in.[38.1-mm] OD retrievable side pocketvalves and accessories.

In addition, there are four designtypes, indicated by the letters G, A, M,and T, and three design features—E,EC, and U—that denote Camco man-drels for specific applications.

Design variations, indicated by let-ters and numerals following the hyphenin the nomenclature, are available formore specialized mandrel functions.

With this extensive range of man-drel types, Schlumberger can offermandrels to suit a wide variety of wellcompletions.

Basic design types■ G—The letter G refers to the most

technologically advanced Camcomandrel design and indicates threeinnovative mandrel features:– An orienting sleeve that provides

precise alignment and insertionof side pocket devices into themandrel side pocket

– A forged tool discriminator thatguides the side pocket devicesinto the mandrel pocket anddeflects larger tools into the tub-ing bore

– An integral forged pocket, or asolid pocket in some mandrels,that allows higher test pressuresin G-series mandrels than inother mandrel designs.

■ A—The letter A refers to the A-latching profile in the MT TRU-GUIDE* mandrel series. The A profile will accept Camco RA-style latches.

■ M—The letter M refers to a cost-effective mandrel design featuringan orienting sleeve and a tubular-style discriminator pocket configu-ration. The mandrel features lesswelding but OD and ID configura-tions that are equal to the G-seriesmandrels.

■ T—The letter T indicates aTRU-GUIDE series high-pressure,round mandrel design.

Design features for special applications

The following letter designationsare used to signify mandrels for specialapplications where injected gas doesnot follow the standard path: ■ E—The letter E indicates that the

mandrel, used primarily in chamberlift applications, does not have portsin the mandrel pocket for communi-cation with the tubing. Instead, themandrel has an exhaust port at thebottom of the side pocket. This portis extended downward into thecasing annulus through a 1⁄2-in.[12.7-mm] pipe connected to thetop packer of a chamber lift instal-lation. In gas lift applications, high-pressure gas injected into the casingannulus flows through the ports inthe side of the mandrel, through the

ports in the gas lift valve, and downthrough the exhaust port.

■ EC—The letters EC indicate thatthe mandrel, used in annular liftapplications, features a snorkelthat functions as an exhaust port.Located at the bottom of the man-drel pocket, the snorkel extendsdown into the casing annulus. Theholes in the mandrel pocket com-municate directly with the tubing. Ingas lift applications, high-pressuregas injected into the tubing flowsthrough the ports between thepacking bores in the mandrelpocket, through the ports in the gaslift valve, down through the snorkel,and into the casing.

■ U—The letter U indicates that themandrel has a reduced OD andID to permit installation in dual-string completions or heavyweightcasing. In 31⁄2-in. [88.9-mm] KBUGmandrels, however, only the ODis reduced. This feature is availableonly in K-series mandrels.

Specialized design variations Other design variations may be

requested for side pocket mandrels.These specialized products will carry anew nomenclature designation addedto the mandrel name. Common designvariations and their nomenclature des-ignators are listed below. Contact yourlocal Schlumberger representative torequest specialized side pocket man-drel designs.■ 2—The numeral 2 indicates that

the mandrel has a slightly reducedOD and a fully open ID. Most man-drels with this designation have areduced test pressure.

Side Pocket Mandrels 1

Selection Guide for Camco Side Pocket Mandrels

■ 3—The numeral 3 indicates thatspecial consideration must be givento thread selection. The completeline of standard end connectionsmay not be applicable, or the man-drel may be specially designed forheavyweight end connections.

■ 4—The numeral 4 indicates thatthe ends of the mandrel are length-ened to accommodate the rema-chining of connecting threads.

■ 5—The numeral 5 indicates thatthe mandrel has integral guarddevices to protect chemical injec-tion conduits being run simultane-ously with the mandrel.

■ 6—The numeral 6 indicates thatthe mandrel has special extendedends that provide room for tubingtongs.

■ 9—The numeral 9 indicates a spe-cial pocket design for KBUG seriesmandrels. This variation acceptsbottom-latch valves only.

■ 10—The numeral 10 designates nomandrel pocket porting to the cas-ing annulus. This design, typicallyfor the MMG series, allows a pres-sure-temperature-memory gauge tobe installed without the tubingrestrictions normally encounteredwhen conventional memory gaugesare installed using a landing nipple.

■ LTS—The letters LTS indicate thatthe mandrel has an integral connec-tion, typically a 1⁄8-in. [3.2-mm] NPTbox, that accepts an injection con-duit, typically with a 1⁄4-in. [6.4-mm]OD, extending from the surfacewellhead connection. LTS mandrelsare used when two or more fluidsare injected into the well and mustbe kept separate until they arecommingled in the flow stream.This type of installation leaves theannulus free for other productionuses. In chemical-injection applica-tions, injected chemicals enter themandrel pocket through the injec-tion conduit and flow through thechemical injection valve and intothe tubing.

Please use this nomenclature sum-mary as an aid to determine whichCamco side pocket mandrels will most effectively suit specific needs.However, when choosing any productfor a specific installation, well charac-teristics, completion requirements,and many other factors must be takeninto consideration. It is also importantto note that the mandrel nomenclatureindicates only principal features. Amandrel may include additional fea-tures that, for simplicity, are notreferred to in the nomenclature. Forcomplete details on features and per-formance capabilities, refer to specificmandrel information on the followingpages, or contact your Schlumbergerrepresentative.

IntroductionCamco MMG series side pocket man-drels are single-pocket mandrels thataccept 11⁄2-in. [38.1-mm] OD sidepocket devices. These mandrels areavailable in a variety of tubing con-nection sizes and incorporate all thestandard design features described inthe Selection Guide for Camco SidePocket Mandrels, page 1.

Design variationsThe following mandrels have varia-tions that configure them for specificproduction applications. These varia-tions, designated by numerals or let-ters following the hyphen in thenomenclature, are explained below.Mandrels with these variations areavailable in a full range of sizes.

■ MMG-2 seriesThe numeral 2 indicates the man-drel has a slightly reduced OD anda fully open ID. Most mandrels withthis designation have a reducedtest pressure.

■ MMG-LTS seriesThe letters LTS indicate the mandrelhas an integral connection extend-ing from the surface wellhead con-nection. This standard connectionis a 1⁄8-in. [3.2-mm] NPT box thataccepts a 1⁄4-in. [6.4-mm] OD injec-tion conduit. LTS mandrels areused when two or more fluids beinginjected into the well must be keptseparate until they are commin-gled in the flow stream. In this typeof installation, the LTS mandrelleaves the annulus free for otherproduction uses. In chemical-injection applications, injectedchemicals enter the mandrelpocket through the injection con-duit, flow through the chemicalinjection valve, and into the tubing.

MMG series mandrels are availablein a range of fully traceable materialsand can be heat treated to complywith NACE specification MR0175 forstress cracking resistant metallicmaterials.

IntroductionThe Camco kickover tool and Merla*selector tool are run into the wellusing standard slickline methods.When the locating finger of the toolcontacts the stop in the orientingguide sleeve in the mandrel, the kickspring pivots the lower section of thetool, the running tool, and valve intothe kicked-over position. The orient-ing guide sleeve in the mandrelassures correct installation. Once theslickline device is installed, a shearpin in the finger housing and therelease plunger assembly is sheared,permitting the tool to be returned tothe surface.

Running procedureIn the running procedure, the valve,latch, and kickover/selector tool aremade up onto the slickline tool stringand lowered through the tubing untilthe tool is below the selected mandrel(Fig. A).

The kickover/selector tool is slowlyraised through the tubing until thefinger on the tool contacts the orient-ing sleeve slot and stops. Tension isplaced on the slickline tool string bypulling until the tool releases andkicks over (Fig. B). The tools are thenlowered until a loss of weight indi-cates that the tool has located theside pocket of the mandrel.

Downward jarring drives the valveand latch into the side pocket man-drel (Fig.C).

Upward jarring shears a pin in thelatch and releases the running toolfrom the valve and latch (Fig. D). Thetool string can then be retrieved fromthe well.
