Anti-kick, anti-fall running tool and instrument hanger and tubing packoff tool

An anti-kick, anti-fall running tool for use in a tubing string comprising:

• an elongate mandrel;
• a sleeve about said mandrel;
• an inwardly directed pin carried on said sleeve;
• and
• anti-kick means for preventing untimely upward movement during running into said tubing string.

An apparatus for enabling isolation of a production zone of a well bore having a tubing string therein and for enabling desired tests to be run in the zone comprising:

• an elongate mandrel;
• packer means incorporating a resilient expandable element including a flaired skirt mounted with said mandrel for expansion outwardly into contact with the tubing sting;
• a collar and sleeve mounted about said mandrel above said packer means, said collar including depending flexible fingers thereon;
• a second set of rigid fingers mounted with said collar about said mandrel and having a like amount of fingers on said collar fingers, one of each of said second set of fingers extending outwardly from beneath one of each of said collar fingers;
• first taper means mounted above said packer means and adjacent and beneath said rigid fingers;
• and
• second taper means mounted beneath said packer means adjacent said skirt wherein upward movement of the mandrel causes each of said taper means to move upwardly to force said rigid fingers and said packer element outwardly to contact the tubuing string which thereby prevents unwanted movement of the mandrel and isolates the zone below the element by enabling the element to seal between the mandrel and string.
