ABSTRACT:
An internal lockdown will lock a tubing hanger in a wellhead housing. The tubing hanger has a conical cam surface formed on the exterior. An internal profile is located in the bore of the housing in alignment with the cam surface. A landing sub secures to a threaded bore of the tubing hanger and protrudes above. A carrier ring mounts to exterior threads formed on the landing sub. The carrier ring carries a set of segmented dogs. After the tubing hanger lands, the landing sub is unscrewed relative to the tubing hanger and carrier ring assembly. Then, the landing sub is lowered, pushing the dogs out into engagement with the profile.
