A hanger system for providing sealed passage for cables, lines, tubes or the like through a wellhead is provided. The hanger has a main seal formed to receive and provide sealed pass-through of power and control cables, lines, conduits, or other threaded components therethrough, while effectively packing off and sealing the well bore. The hanger is provided with hinged side doors formed to engage and support the components. When the hanger with threaded components is positioned to rest in the bowl of the tubing head, the lower string weight is utilized to compress the main seal, providing an effective seal. The present system is suitable for use with permanent as well as temporary applications, and is designed to provide a low to medium pressure seal. Also taught is a bowl cap with compression seal to cover the present system, while providing enhanced, sealed pass-through.

Corrosion protection element for downhole connections

A system for use in corrosive environments includes a first tubular including a first connector portion, and a second tubular including a second connector portion. The first connector portion overlaps the second connector portion to form a connection joint. A magnesium element is arranged between the first connector portion and the second connector portion at the connection joint.

Shear rams for a blowout preventer

The present disclosure relates to a system that includes a shearing ram configured to mount in a blowout preventer. The shearing ram includes a body portion that may move along an axis of movement. The shearing ram also includes a sealing member disposed in a first surface of the body portion. The sealing member is biased away from the first surface in a crosswise direction relative to the axis of movement, such that the sealing member may engage a second surface of a second shearing ram when the first shearing ram and the second shearing ram overlap with one another with respect to the axis of movement.

Weatherization system for a wellhead emission reduction system

A weatherization system for a wellhead methane emission reduction system is described. The weatherization system reduces green-house gas emission into the atmosphere and reduces the effects of weather on the methane emission reduction system. The weatherization system includes a stack assembly connected to a housing of the reduction system by a housing adapter. The stack assembly includes a stack adapter and a stack cover, which collectively helps protect the methane emission reduction system and prevents weather or atmospheric factors from entering the housing. The weatherization system may include one or more sensors for measuring the effects of weather or degradation of at least one of the weatherization system and the methane emission reduction system.
