CA 2449919

A hydraulic liner hanger (100) is provided. The liner hanger comprises a tubular body (110). A plurality of slips (140) are disposed radially around the outer surface of the body. In one arrangement, each slip has wickers (144) for engaging the inner surface of a surrounding string of casing (50). Each slip is connected to a slip ring (120), the slip ring also being circumferentially disposed around the outer surface of the body. At least some of the slip members are received upon a wedge surface (150), or cone(s). In operation, an expander tool (200) such as a hydraulic setting tool acts upon the liner hanger, causing the slips (140) to be expanded into frictional engagement with the surrounding string of casing (50). The operator is then able to slack off the weight of the liner, allowing multiple slips to engage the casing and to suspend the liner therebelow.

L'invention se rapporte à une suspension de colonne perdue (100) hydraulique. Cette colonne perdue est dotée d'un corps tubulaire (110). Une pluralité de coins de retenue (140) est disposée radialement autour de la surface extérieure du corps. Dans un mode de réalisation, chaque fente présente des dents (144) qui viennent en prise avec la surface interne d'une bande de logement (50) avoisinante. Chaque coin de retenue est relié à un anneau (120) de coin de retenue (120), l'anneau de coin de retenue étant également installé en circonférence autour de la surface externe du corps. Au moins certains des éléments de coin de retenue sont placés sur une pente (150) ou un/des cône(s). En mode de fonctionnement, un outil extensible (200) tel qu'un outil d'installation hydraulique agit sur la suspension de colonne perdue de manière que les coins de retenue (140) s'étendent jusqu'à être en prise par frottement avec la bande de logement (50) avoisinante. L'opérateur est alors capable de mollir le poids de la colonne perdue, ce qui permet aux nombreux coins de retenue de venir en prise avec le logement et de suspendre la colonne perdue en dessous.
