Lock Mandrel with Equalizing Valve(Melon)& Housing


4.2 Lock Mandrel with Equalizing Valve(Melon)& Housing

When combining a Lock Mandrel assembly to a melon type equalising valve and housing, they form a XX plug assembly which is used to hold top & bottom well pressure set in a Landing Nipple. This allows repair or replacement work to be carried out while the pressure is contained. This design allows fluid bypass when run in to set the lock with a running prong attached to a running tool.
