A blowout preventer (BOP) protector is adapted to support a tubing string in a well bore so that the tubing string is directly accessible during a well treatment to stimulate production. The BOP protector includes a mandrel having an annular sealing body bonded to its bottom end for sealing engagement with a bit guide that protects a top of a casing of a well to be stimulated. The mandrel is connected at its top end to a fracturing head, including a central passage and radial passages in fluid communication with the central passage. The mandrel is locked in a fixed position by a lockdown mechanism that prevents upward movement induced by fluid pressures in the wellbore and downward movement induced by the weight of a tubing string supported at a top of the fracturing head by a tubing adapter. The advantages are that the BOP protector permits access to the tubing string during well treatment and enables an operator to move the tubing string up and down or run coil tubing into or out of the wellbore without removing the tool. This reduces operation costs, saves time and enables many new procedures that were previously impossible or impractical.
