Abstract
A valve for a landing packer in a petroleum well. The landing packer is provided with a passage between an upper face and a lower face, and the valve is adapted to close the passage. The valve comprises a biased valve body adapted to be displaced between a first position and a second position. The valve body is adapted to receive a tool from above. The valve body is adapted to be displaced from a first position to a second position by a downward force executed by the tool. It is also described a tool comprising a leading end adapted to abut fluid tightly the biased valve body and the tool is adapted to displace the biased valve body between the first closed position and the second open position. It is also described a method for plugging the A-annulus in a petroleum well.
Claims8
A system for plugging a petroleum well with a fluid plugging material, wherein the system comprises:
- a valve for a landing packer adapted for forming a bridge plug in the petroleum well, the landing packer provided with a passage between an upper face and a lower face, the valve adapted to close the passage, and
- a tool adapted for displacement in the petroleum well, wherein:
- the tool comprises a leading end;
- the tool comprises an internal compartment adapted to house and release the fluid plugging material;
- the valve comprises a biased valve body adapted to be displaced between a first position and a second position;
- wherein in the first position, the valve body closes liquid tight an entrance to the passage, and in the second position, the entrance is open;
- the valve body is adapted to receive the tool from above;
- the valve body is adapted to be displaced from the first position to the second position by a downward force executed by the tool;
- the valve body is adapted to be displaced to the first position when the downward force executed by the tool is removed;
- and
- the tool is adapted to abut fluid tightly the biased valve body, and to displace the biased valve body between a first closed position and a second open position by the downward force executed by the tool.
