C/W Heavy Duty Hydraulic Disconnect & Circulation Sub
INTRODUCTION
The PCE Coiled Tubing Motor Head Assembly has been developed in recognition to
industry demands for compact, heavy duty, integrated BHA components. The Motor Head
Assembly combines the Double Flapper Check Valve with the BOSS Hydraulic Disconnect
and the Dual Circulation Valve, standard components for virtually all toolstring designs.
The tubing connector has been deliberately eliminated to give the added flexibility of
operator choice for the connector type and coil tubing size.
The PCE Motor Head Assembly provides the operator with a compact, versatile, upper
BHA and offers the following features:
• The Motor Head’s compact design gives an overall length saving of approximately
30% over the use of conventional individual components.
• The high torque capability of the Motor Head Assembly provides the ideal Motor
Head for today’s high demand coiled tubing drilling applications.
• The choice of tubing connector is not dictated by the Motor Head, therefore giving
the operator the flexibility to choose the most appropriate connector to suit the
application.
• With a considerable reduction in the number of component parts, seals and thread
connections, the Motor Head Assembly is uncomplicated to assemble/disassemble
and inexpensive to redress.

C/W Heavy Duty Hydraulic Disconnect & Circulation Sub
DESCRIPTION
Each Flapper Cartridge incorporates a primary, low pressure PTFE seal, backed up with a
secondary, high pressure metal-to-metal seal. PCE Flapper Cartridge Assemblies simply
‘drop-in’ to the Double Flapper Check Valve housing, providing ‘ease-of-assembly’
redressing of the Motor Head Assembly.
The PCE Heavy Duty Hydraulic Disconnect allows the toolstring to detach at a
predetermined point via the deployment of a suitable drop/trip ball through the coiled
tubing.
The drop ball locates on a piston sleeve creating sufficient back pressure to shear the pins
and disconnect the tool. The piston sleeve pushes the tool apart to ensure a clean
disconnect. Circulation is immediately returned to the toolstring, providing a surface
indication of a positive disconnect. All piston sleeves and drop balls are returned to surface
leaving a standard ‘GS’ internal fish neck for retrieval purposes.
The Hydraulic Disconnect utilises a heavy duty, one piece, threaded collet slip to hold the
tool together. The collet slip endures higher tensile loading than collet finger type release
mechanisms and is far less susceptible to fatigue. The collet slip is backed up with a collet
slip sleeve to give maximum tensile strength to the disconnect during heavy jarring
operations.
Only by dropping a ball and shearing the pins can the collet sleeve shift, allowing the collet
and top sub to part. The piston sleeve is pressure balanced, therefore internal pressure
does not affect the hydraulic configuration and shear values.
High torque capabilities are achieved through positive torque drive teeth between the top
sub and the main body of the tool. The hydraulic disconnect is therefore ideally suited for
high torque, heavy duty coiled tubing drilling operations where maximum performance and
durability is essential.

Shear screws can be supplied in either brass or steel to give a comprehensive pressure
range to suit virtually any coiled tubing application. Shear screws are also integrally
situated to eliminate the possibility of shear screws vibrating free during CT drilling
operations.
The standard configuration consists of the maximum flow through bore available, whilst
maintaining maximum tensile strength in the tool. By interchanging the piston sleeve, the
drop/trip ball size can be varied to suit the desired toolstring requirements. This is a
particularly useful feature when the Hydraulic Disconnect is situated below jars and
accelerators, and ID restrictions are a considering factor. Running the PCE Heavy Duty
Hydraulic Disconnect below jars and accelerators ensures that if disconnection of the
toolstring is necessary, a greater proportion of the toolstring is safely returned to surface.
A major inherent design consideration is that of simple field redress. The hydraulic
disconnect has been methodically designed to ensure assembly & disassembly of the tool
is trouble free. No special assembly tools are required and all seals are standard ‘O’ rings.

3) Cut Spring Arms (5) to length and place between hinge of Flapper (3).
4) Insert Pin (7) through the holes in Body (1), holes in Flapper (3), Spring (5) and file
flush to outside diameter.

If the tool has not been released after running in the hole it should be dis-assembled,
inspected and re-assembled with re-dress parts as required. To do this, use the following
procedure.
1. Breakout the Circ Sub Body (12) from the Fish Neck / Body (5) and the Flapper
Housing (1) from Upper Release sub (4).
2. Using a soft drift bar tap the Release Piston (11) downwards into the bore of the Upper
Release Sub (4) so that it moves the Piston (8) with Collet Sleeve (7) and Shear Collar
(9) out from the Fish Neck / Body (5).
3. Remove Shear Screws (31) from Fish Neck / Body (5). The Upper Release Sub (4) and
Fish Neck / Body (5) will then separate with a sharp tap on the bottom of the Upper
Release Sub (4) with a soft drift bar. The Collet Slip (6) will exit from the Fish Neck /
Body (5) and the Release Piston (11) can be removed from the Upper Release Sub (4).
4. Remove Shear screws (10) from Shear Collar (9) inspect and replace with new ones if
necessary.

ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE
1. Place Shear collar (9) over the Shear Release Sleeve (8) so as the holes in the
Shear Collar (9) line up with the Shear Release Sleeve (8).
3. Install as many Shear pins (10) as necessary to equal the required release
pressure. Refer to individual Data Sheet for shear values.
4. Tap Upper Release sub (4) into the Fish Neck Body (5), aligning the castellations so
that they inter-lock.
5. Make up Shear Release Sleeve (8) to the Collet Sleeve (7), tighten and fit
Grubscrew (25).
6. Make up Collet Slip (6) to the Shear Release Sleeve (8) / Collet Sleeve (7) sub
assembly.
7. Place Upper Release sub (4) / Fish Neck Body (5) sub assembly on a bench with
Upper Connector (4) facing downwards.
8. Install the Piston (8) / Collet Sleeve (7) / Collet Slip (6) sub assembly into the Fish
Neck Body (5).

9. Hold the Upper Release sub (4) and start rotating the Shear Release Sleeve (8)
clockwise to make up the thread, using a suitable hexagon wrench. When it
engages, the Shear Release Sleeve (8) will move down as the wrench is rotated.
10. When the thread is fully made up, the Collet Slip (6) will be tight on the Upper
Release sub (4). At this stage, the Shear Release Sleeve (8)/ Collet Sleeve (7) sub
assembly will cease moving down
11. To ensure Collet Sleeve (7) is fully down, the Shear Release Sleeve (8) will be level
with the bottom of body (5). (Note on 3-1/8" tool Collet Sleeve will be 1/2" below the
bottom of the body).
12. Insert the Circulation Sleeve (11) into the Upper Release sub (4) until it butts up
against the Shear Release Sleeve (8).
13. Fit Shear Screws (31) into the Fish Neck/Body (5).

2) Invert body (12) on bench top and push shear piston (13) into body.
3) Align pin holes with shear pin groove which can be seen through the circulating
ports.
4) Install Shear Screws (14) to value required. See data tables at the end of this

Once the three sub-assemblies of the MOTORHEAD have been assembled then screw
together, ensuring that ‘o’-ring (18) and flapper seating ring (2) are installed between the
flapper cartridge and heavy duty hydraulic disconnect sub, then tighten.
Pre-Run Checks
1) Determine the required release pressure and, referring to the data tables, calculate
the required number of shear pins (10).
2) Ensure the tool is assembled correctly as described in the assembly section. Use
the number of shear pins as resolved above.
3) Check the ball (the diameter of the ball is stated on the data sheet) will pass
through the upper part of the MOTORHEAD ASSEMBLY.
Disconnect Operation
4) If it becomes necessary to disconnect the release joint drop the correct size ball.
5) Pressure up the coiled tubing to a pressure slightly higher than the release value of
the tool.
6) The shear pins will shear out allowing the shear sleeve to drop.
7) Overpull on the coiled tubing 300 to 500 lbs to separate the tool.
Retrieval Operation
A standard ‘GS’ pulling tool such as a PCE Flow Activated ‘GS’ Pulling tool or a PCE
Internal Fishneck Retrieval Tool can be used to pull the lower half of the tool string. The
fishing neck size is shown on the technical specification sheets.
