1.0 General

WOODCO USA offers supplements to general catalogs in order to provide more detailed information about specific equipment.

1.1 Purpose

WOODCO USA intends this supplement to communicate the design, material, and advantages of WOODCO USA Top Connectors as specified in the “informative” Annex K, of API Spec 6A, 20th Edition.

1.2 Application

Top Connectors using the uppermost collar connection shown in API Spec 6A allow operators and service companies to use interchangeable equipment when making service equipment attachment to the top of well head Christmas Trees.

1.3 Specification

WOODCO USA Top Connectors meet all the defined requirements of API Spec 6A.

1.4 Reference Standards

API Spec 6A

API Spec 16A

Note: API Spec 6A, 20th Edition provides “Informative” information about Top Connectors with a paragraph in Annex K, K.4 warning that specified Top Connector bores will not pass a drift or Backpressure Valve. WOODCO USA Top Connectors will pass both Drifts and Backpressure Valves and satisfy all API specified design requirements. See Section 1.7 of this catalog.

1.4 Reference Standards

API Spec 6A

API Spec 16A

1.5 Material

WOODCO USA Top Connectors meet API Spec 6A material requirements including the special Annex K requirement that all Top Connector material meet 75 K strength regardless of working pressure.

Annex K specifies that Top Connectors utilize only the following material classes.

DD-Sour Service a Carbon or low alloy steel bEE-Sour Service a Carbon or low alloy steel b

FF-Sour Service a Stainless steel bHH-Sour Service a CRA bcd

a As defined by NACE Standard MR0175/ISO 15156.

b In compliance with NACE Standard MR-01-75/ISO 15156.

c CRA required on retained fluid wetted surfaces only; CRA cladding of low allow or stainless steel permitted.

d CRA as defined in API 6A latest edition. NACE MRO175/ISO 15156 definition of CRA does not apply.

1.6 Service Temperature

API Spec 6A Annex K makes no mention of service temperature yet specifies the use of “FKM” (Viton) elastomer seal material. This material has a normal temperature service range of -20°F to 400°F.

The following API 6A temperature classifications fall within -20°F to 350°F.

1.7 Design

WOODCO USA Top Connectors have lowermost connectors meeting API Spec 6A requirements for Flanges, and API Spec 16A requirements for (Clamp) Hub connections. Body diameters between lower and upper connections have maximum allowed diameters. Plugs have spiral retainer rings to keep them connected with nuts and help extract the plug when operators need to enter the well through the Christmas Tree. All WOODCO USA manufactured Top Connectors have API full bores allowing the normal installation of “Back Pressure Valves” through the Christmas Tree.

1.8 Quality

WOODCO USA defines “Product Quality” as conformance to specified requirements. We select suppliers on the basis of their ability to provide materials, products and/or services which conform to WOODCO USA and API specifications.

All individual units must pass inspections during and after production, and each unit receives a hydrostatic body test. Operators may specify API Spec 6A PSL levels.

1.9 Supplemental Requirements

Buyers should clearly define, at the time of order, any requirements which exceed or differ from API Spec 6A.

Temperature Operating RangeClassification * ( Degrees Fahrenheit [°F] )

Min. Max.P -20 to 180R Room TemperatureS 0 to 140T 0 to 180U 0 to 250V 35 to 250

X** 0 to 350

* PURCHASER MAY COMBINE TEMPERATURE CLASSES e.g. PX, -20 TO 350 °F ** MAY REQUIRE DERATING

Operators may specify lower temperature ratings K (-75°F to 180°F), L (-50°F to 180°F) and N (-50°F to 140°F) using elastomer seals other than FKM.

Figure 1, WOODCO USA Top Connector

• Full compliance with the details and intent of API Spec 6A, Annex K, assures fi eld interchangeability with service equipment having API designated collar connections.

• WOODCO USA full bore designs allow Back Pressure Valve installation through the Top Connector.

• WOODCO USA provides a gall resistant coating on all units regardless of material to reduce fi eld corrosion and prevent galling on sensitive surfaces.

• The Collar (Nut) has a course knurled surface and “Tommy Bar” holes to facilitate installation and removal of the Collar.

• A spiral retainer ring on the Plug allows the collar to lift the plug when opening the collar connection.

3.1 Assembly Details and Instructions

Figure 4, WOODCO USA Top Connector W/ “Tommy Bars”

The WOODCO USA Top Connector follows the API Spec 6A Annex K specifications, dimensions, and design. WOODCO USA has added the feature of “Tommy Bar” holes in the Collar to facilitate turning of the Collar to connect or disconnect the Collar connection.

All WOODCO USA made Top Connectors, have a gall resistant coating on all surfaces. During original assembly, WOODCO USA applies water-resistant grease on the plug and collar. When operators remove the Plug and Collar, WOODCO USA recommends the replacement of this lubricant. Seal rings and backup rings prove easier to install when lightly lubricated with water-resistant grease (applied by hand, brush application of lubricant may cause problems if the brush should lose a bristle that might end up behind or across a seal).
