In April 1994, a well control event occured that caused a nearly 3 inch tubing to be ejected from the Fee 83X well in the Rangely Weber sand unit in Colorado. The tubing landed in a wash next to the well, the well was contained and secured without personnel injury or damage to the rig, the well, or the location. The report investigates the background of the event and the assessment of the cause of the problem, which leds to new setting procedures for the Lok-Set packer, ensuring that the packer seats are clean and free from scale buildup, disposition of kill fluid, and a better well control training.
