ABSTRACT:
A scoophead/diverter system is run into a wellbore using a novel scoophead running tool. The running tool allows circulation through its inside diameter, and has internal pressure integrity to test any seals below the running tool prior to releasing the scoophead. This also allows circulation while running in order to apply MWD techniques. This run-in tool includes a mounting head from which extends a running stump and a housing (or connecting mandrel) parallel to the running stump. The running stump and housing are sized and configured to be respectively received in large and small diameter bores in the scoophead. The scoophead running tool thus allows torque to be transmitted about the centerline of the scoophead assembly in spite of being attached into one of the offset bore. This torque transmission is accomplished by connecting the connecting mandrel between the running tool and scoophead at the same offset as the large bore of the scoophead. This transfer of torque is important in order to reliably manipulate the scoophead assembly with the running string. The connecting mandrel of the running tool has an internal bypass sleeve that opens at a predetermined pressure that allows a tripping ball to be circulated down to its seat if the scoophead is to run and be anchored into a closed system.
