ABSTRACT:
A hydraulic well tool for running into a flow conduit of a well on a handling string, such as reeled tubing or jointed pipe, for generating and applying an axial force to an object in the well, the well tool including an anchoring mechanism actuatable by fluid pressure in the handling string for anchoring the well tool in the flow conduit, this well tool further including a piston/cylinder arrangement also actuatable by fluid pressure in the flow conduit for moving the aforementioned object. The object may be a well tool, a sliding sleeve, a fish, or other well tool. The hydraulic well tool may be provided with a suitable device to permit increasing the pressure in the handling string for actuation of the anchoring mechanism and the piston/cylinder arrangement. Devices suitable for such purpose include a flow restrictor, ball and seat, velocity check valves, plugs, or the like devices. The displacement of such object is brought about hydraulically while the well tool is anchored in the flow conduit and without axially stressing the handling string. The anchoring mechanism includes piston type anchor members each formed with a sinusoidal seal ring recess at its inner end for increasing the stroke of the anchor members, and with a recess running across the inner face of the anchor member in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis of the well tool to avoid obstructing the longitudinal body bore.
