Significant advantages of the S-22 bowl:
The Seaboard conventional wellhead system incorporates the S-22
straight bowl design with a 45 degree load shoulder.
S-22 Casing Heads and Spools
One bowl design that universally accepts slip-type or mandrel casing hangers
Low-weight hangers for tieback applications and high capacity hangers are also accommodated due tothe straight bowl and 45 degree load shoulder which diminishes hoop stress on the casing heads and
spools
Design concept is carried forward into the Fas-Loc and SMB-22 multibowl systems for componentinterchangeability and retention of superior design characteristics
Damage during drilling activities is minimized, thereby decreasing the frequency of maintenance and/or potential replacement
Wear bushings can enhance the protection of important sealing surfaces
Test plugs and wear bushings often wedge in tapered bowls under pressure, a possibility virtuallyeliminated with the S-22 bowl design

The Fas-Loc wellhead system was developed to meet all of the needs of conventional equipment while reducing
much of the associated time, costs and risks. The Fas-Loc wellhead system significantly reduces rig time and
associated rig costs over those utilizing conventional wellhead equipment. For multiple well programs, thediverter adapter and BOP service adapters may be transferred from well to well, eliminating the time required to
nipple up and down between locations. Safety is enhanced with the Fas-Loc casing head by eliminating the
requirements for torch cutting and welding operations normally associated with casing head installation. Another
time saving feature is the ability to land the casing head through the BOP, eliminating the need to wait on
cement. The Fas-Loc casing head bowl is designed to accept standard slip hanger arrangements. Further
reducing time, the Fas-Loc tubing head makes up quickly without special tools. The Fas-Loc wellhead system
easily adapts to accommodate intermediate casing strings according to the requirements of the drilling program.

SMB-22 Multibowl Systems
SS-L Buttweld Sub and CMH Hanger SystemInstalling and removing the BOP stack is a time
consuming procedure performed each time aconventional head or spool is added during drilling
operations. During BOP removal, there is a potential
for disaster either through a blowout or injury to the
drilling crew. The compact SMB-22 multibowl wellhead
system eliminates the need for one nipple up by landing
multiple casing strings in one head.
The SMB-22 multibowl wellhead assembly is a full-
bore design. The lower casing hanger is fluted to allow
ample by-pass for circulating mud and cement. The seal
assembly, which lands on the flutes, also acts as a
support for the upper hanger. A wide choice of tubing
hanger designs are available for various service
conditions.
Emergency suspension systems are available for the
lower hanger.
The SS-L buttweld sub and CMH hanger is a versatile
wellhead system offering a flanged and non-flanged
means of nippling up a diverter system. Conductor and
surface casing can be run through the diverter, thus
saving time (one less nipple down), money, and safety.
Rig time is saved by utilizing the SM-E mandrel hanger
for the surface casing, which allows for faster installation
of a conventional wellhead, or multibowl system,
because no welding is required. The SS-L buttweld
sub system is flexible to most casing programs andoffers emergency equipment options.
Additional Features:
Conductor hanger may be tested externallyonce landed
Conductor hanger seals may be re-energized,if necessary
Surface casing hanger may be landed prior tocementing, eliminating the need to reciprocate
Annular seal for surface casing hanger maybe run through the diverter, locked in place
(flanged diverter head) and tested externally
Annular seal for surface casing hanger maybe re-energized, if necessary
All running/retrieving tools run on casing

S Tubing Heads
SP, SP-H, and Double IP Seals
The S tubing head is designed to be full opening
even over 7-5/8 casing. The straight bowl and
45
load shoulder allows the use of one bowldesign for virtually all applications. A variety of
single and dual tubing hangers are available for
a wide array of service conditions and operating
preferences.
Multiple Completion Options
SD dual tubing heads are equipped with two
MC (multi-completion) guide pins located 180apart just above the 45 load shoulder. When
landing the dual tubing hanger, the MC guide
pins are run in to orient the tubing hanger
segments.
Tubing Head Bottom ConnectionsStandard bottom preparations for tubing heads
include single or double IP seals, SP or SP-H
packoff bushings. For IP secondary seal
configurations, the tubing head provides
injection ports through which plastic can be
injected to enhance the IP seal.
The SP seal is a simple press energized design comprised of an elastomer element sandwiched between two
compression plates. The assembly is retained in the pocket with a snap ring.
The SP-H seal is similar in design to the SP, but is better suited for use in higher pressure applications. The
assembly is retained in the pocket by a threaded ring.
The Double IP seal is ideal for use as crossover where moderately severe service is expected. Each seal is
plastic energized, which can also be tested via a port located between the seals to verify seal integrity.

S-22 Casing Hangers
The S-22 casing hanger is a slip style hanger which
automatically seals the casing annulus.
During installation, the hanger is wrapped around thecasing and the slip retaining screws are removed,
allowing the slips to ride down the internal taper. As
the casing slides through the hanger, the segmented
slips grab and wedge between the tapered bowl and
the casing. The annulus seal below the bowl is
automatically energized by the weight of the casing as
it is transferred through the slips to the 45 load shoulder
in the head or spool.
S-22 Casing Hanger
Casing weight must meet or exceed those listed in thechart to the right. If the minimum weight is not met, the
elastomer seal may not extrude sufficiently to seal
against the casings surface. If the casing weight is in
excess of 50% of the casing joint strength, the seal
may over-extrude and become ineffective. Alternate
hangers are available for these conditions.
The S-22-NL casing hanger is appropriate for no load
or mudline applications. The slips are set by pullingslight tension on the casing. When the tension is
released, the slight casing movement sets the slips.
The annulus seal above the slips is energized manually
after the BOP stack is removed.
TheS-22-HL
casing hanger accommodates loads inexcess of 50% of the casing joint strength. The double
wedge back slip design permits the same length of slip
to support a higher load without impinging the casing.
The design also features a positive stop which limits
extrusion of the seal.

Single Completion Tubing Hangers and Adapters for Land Installations
SM-E Tubing HangersThe SM-E tubing hanger is a versatile design usingelastomer seals. The hanger can be equipped with a
suspension style control line preparation and isolation
seals on the neck to accommodate traditional control
line porting through the adapter. The control line porting
can be used or ignored without affecting the functioning
of the tubing hanger.
The tubing hanger consists of a main body, an
elastomer seal and a compression/support ring. The
annulus seal is automatically energized by the weight
of the tubing string. Extrusion of the seal is controlled
by a positive stop between the compression/support
ring and the hanger body. If the tubing weight is not
sufficient to extrude the seals, it will be energized by
the lockscrews used to retain the hanger in the bowl.
An internal profile is provided for setting a back pressure
valve.
SM-T Tubing HangersThe SM-T tubing hanger uses a metal taper design on
the hangers neck to isolate the production flow. Metal
seals are far superior to elastomers making this hanger
suitable for more critical service applications.
During installation, the hanger is landed and the
lockscrews run in to retain the hanger and energize
the annulus seal. The metal seal on the hanger neck is
energized by making up the adapter. The taper on the
ID of the adapter slightly opposes the OD of the tubing
hanger neck, causing the neck to deform slightly. This
deformation is safely within the elastic limits of the yieldstrength of the hanger material, permitting the
connection to be broken and remade repeatedly without
damaging the sealing surfaces.
An internal profile is provided for setting a back pressure
valve.

Single Completion Tubing Hangers and Adapters for Offshore Installations
SM-T-CL Tubing HangersThe SM-T-CL tubing hanger provides a continuous
control line setting while using metal seals in the hanger
neck to isolate the production flow. Metal seals are farsuperior to elastomers making this hanger suitable for
more critical service applications.
The tubing hanger consists of a main body, an
elastomer seal and a compression ring. During
installation, the hanger is landed and the lockscrews
run in to retain the hanger and energize the annulus
seal. The metal seal on the hanger neck is energized
by making up the adapter. The taper on the ID of the
adapter slightly opposes the OD of the tubing hanger
neck, causing the neck to deform slightly. This
deformation is safely within the elastic limits of the yield
strength of the hanger material, permitting theconnection to be broken and remade repeatedly without
damaging the sealing surfaces.
The continuous control line is supported and sealed
above and below the hanger with common ferrule-type
fittings. The control line exits through the adapter and
is sealed off in a specially designed exit block.
An internal profile is provided for setting a back pressure
valve.
SM-E-CL Tubing HangersThe SM-E-CL tubing hanger provides a continuouscontrol line setting using elastomer seals in the both
hanger bowl and hanger neck.
The tubing hanger consists of a main body, an
elastomer seal and a compression ring. During
installation, the hanger is landed and the lockscrews
run in to retain the hanger and energize the annulus
seal. The neck of the tubing hanger uses S seals to
seal against the straight bore of the adapter.
The continuous control line is supported and sealed
above and below the hanger with common ferrule-type
fittings. The control line exits through the adapter and
is sealed off in a specially designed exit block (shown)or nipple/tapped bull plug arrangement.

ESP Feed Through Systems
SD and SD-CL Dual Completion Tubing Hangers
When the oil is heavy or reservoir pressure is depleted,
it is often necessary to resort to artificial lift methods
for bringing the oil to the surface. A commonly used
device is the electric submersible pump.
The pump is made up into the bottom of the tubing
string as it is run in the hole. An electric cable, which
will eventually transmit power to the pump, is run side
by side with the tubing string. The ESP tubing hanger
is eccentrically aligned, offsetting the tubing string to
allow passage of the electric cable through the hanger
to the outside. A mandrel with a uniquely designed,
pigtail style electric plug connector on each end creates
a totally sealed conduit for passing the electricity from
the outside power source through the wellhead housing
and into the production annulus.
ESP equipment is designed for hostile environmentsand can be adapted for temperatures up to 350F,
pressures up to 10,000 psi and for highly corrosive
service.
Adapter Assemblies
ESP systems are often used in rework applications.
Adapter assemblies are available in common sizes and
pressure ratings to connect to existing wellheads
without removing the tubing head. They are completely
compatible with the ESP hangers and mandrels and
provide the simplest method for converting a well to an
ESP system.
Dual completion tubing hangers are segmented designs
available for both offshore and onshore applications
(with or without continuous control lines). Both designs
can be used in the SD tubing head.
The annulus seal is energized by running in the
lockscrews after both hanger segments are landed. TheSD-CL hangers provide a control line nipple which
supports and seals the control line while protecting it
from the extrusion seal. Both the SD and SD-CL designs
use seal subs which are installed after the hanger is
landed to seal on the dual adapter.
An internal profile is provided in each hanger segment
for setting a back pressure valve.

Slim Line Tubing Hangers
Tension Tubing Hangers
The SL tubing hanger system is designed for use over
TLC (Tubingless Completion) equipment. Once
production through a larger tubing string begins to slow,
the operator may choose to install a smaller tubing string
in order to continue lifting fluids. In this application, the
SL tubing head can be installed between the TLC
adapter and lower master valve. The SL tubing head
features a retractable tag pin that allows for full opening
bore for passage of back pressure valves and ensurespositive tubing hanger location. The SL tubing hanger
is landed through the tree, secured in place and may
begin taking production. If so desired, the operator may
also choose to utilize a crossover adapter in order to
install a smaller bore tree over the installed SL tubing
hanger.
The Tension tubing head and hanger system was
designed to allow the tubing string to be lowered into
the production casing in order to provide an overpull
of the string weight prior to engaging the load pins in
the landed position. This compensates for elongation
due to temperature variations during the completion
of the well to ensure that the tubing string is not
exposed to buckling that can occur with conventional
tubing hanger applications. Tension tubing hangers
utilize an MRS metal seal between the hanger neck
and adapter to isolate the production flow. A continuous
control line feature is standard with the Tension tubing
hanger system that allows the control line to exit
through the adapter and be sealed in a specially
designed exit block. The Tension tubing head and
hanger system is available in applications up to 20,000psi and all API trim levels.
Additional Features:
Fluted thru-bore Tension hanger available forliquid or N

The Communication Slick Joint was designed to allow
operators to reciprocate tubing up to 24 feet for
displacement during completion or de-completion of a
well where hydraulic control lines are necessary for
downhole control valves. An annular seal is maintained
with the S wrap around tubing hanger, and an external
shroud provides protection for the DHCV line during
controlled reciprocation while under pressure.
Additional Features Include:
Separate suspension nut eliminates gallingduring installation and allows for easy make-
up without requiring the rotation of the tree
PolyPak seals separate DHCV ports,expediting installation and maximizing years
of trouble-free service

Shutting in a production platform during installation of welded casing and diverter heads is costly, yet necessary
for the safety of personnel and the environment. The only safe way to continue platform activities uninterrupted
is to use an alternative connection method which requires no open flame. The NW series of diverter and casingheads provides a simple, safe and reliable solution to this problem.
NW-A and NW-B Connectors
Diverter Heads
The NW-B diverter head consists of a full-open bore and friction pin locking mechanism which makes the head
easily removable. The low pressure seal is formed by injectable elastomers.
Casing Heads
The NW-A casing head consists of a standard S-22 bowl with a manually locked slip mechanism. The seal
between the conductor and the wellhead is achieved with injectable elastomers.

Backseat can be employed without shifting posi-tion of the gate
Slab Gate
Excessive force is not required to close and sealthe valve
Potential for valve cavity pressure lock is eliminated
Assures smooth operation during extreme thermalcycles
Floating Seats
Allows bi-directional use
Spring-energized seals pre-load the seats to main-tain constant contact with gate, ensuring low pres-
sure sealing
Requires no lubrication to seal
Threaded Packing Gland
Transfers stem packing loads to the bonnet, pro-tecting the bearing assemblies
Accommodates replacement of bearings and shearpin at full pressure differential
No Body Penetrations
A single lubrication injection port is located outboardof the backseat in the each bonnet allowing cavity
lubrication or venting of trapped pressure after
backseat operation
In-line Repairability
Gates, seats, stems and other critical parts are eas-ily replaced without the use of special tools
Stem packing can be replaced while the valve isunder pressure

Key Features:Metal-to-Metal Seals
Seals are stable, thermally insensitive, and envi-ronmentally resistant
Utilized in the gate/seat, body/ bonnet, and stem/bonnet backseat
Selective Backseat
Provides unparalleled safety during venting, lubri-cation, and stem packing replacement
Premature backseating is prevented by a positivestop in the bearing cap that controls stem travel.
This design feature also protects the metal-to-metal
sealing surface

Seaboard International Model 640 and Model 1640 gate valves are designed with a bi-directional slab gate,
metal-to-metal sealing technology, and stem backseating capability. The one-piece parallel sided slab gate
utilizes floating seats that co-opt line pressure to supply the sealing force. Stem packing is chemically inert,
using spring energizing rings which require no adjustment or plastic injection. These valves are available forapplications from 3,000 to 15,000 psi. Trim levels are available to suit all types of oil and gas service. Flanged
end configurations are available in standard bore sizes from 1-13/16 through 5-1/8.
