An apparatus for securing a mandrel of a well tool in an operative position in which the mandrel is packed off against a fixed-point in the well is described. The apparatus includes a mechanical lockdown mechanism to secure the tool to the wellhead and maintain the mandrel in proximity to the fixed-point for packoff, and a mechanical or a hydraulic mechanism to move the mandrel into the operative position while the mechanical lockdown mechanism is in a lockdown position. A second mechanical locking mechanism is provided to ensure the mandrel is maintained in the operative position in the event that hydraulic pressure is lost. The invention provides a mechanism to lock down well tools requiring fixed-point packoff in a well and advantageously improves the range of adjustment of the lockdown mechanism so that the length of a mandrel may be less precisely matched to a distance from a top of the wellhead to the fixed-point in the well.
