02 Landing Nipples
Applications
• A landing nipple is a short length of pipe with a profile cut on the
inside of the pipe.
• Landing nipples are designed to allow a lock mandrel to locate and
lock into the nipple’s internal profile.
• landing nipple include X®, R®, XN®, RN®
X Selective Nipples XN No-go nipples

02 Landing Nipples
Benefits
✓ Plugging the tubing for:
1. Removing the wellhead or surface equipment
2. Pressure testing
3. Setting hydraulic set packers
4. Zonal isolation
✓ Installing downhole chokes, regulators, SSVs, etc.
✓ landing off bottom hole pressure recorders.

02 Landing Nipples
A typical Slickline ‘plug’ consists of 3
components:
• 1. Lock mandrel
• 2. Equalizing sub
• 3. Flow control device (prong)

02 Landing Nipples
No – go nipple XN
• XN®, RN®, Nipples (N = no-go) contain a restriction in
the profile which prevents the Slickline plug from
passing through.
• Only 1 no-go nipple of a particular size is used in a
well and usually it will be placed at or near the bottom
of the well below other landing nipples.

03 Perforated Joint
Applications
• Installed above No-go to provide flow bypass
when gauges are installed.
• The design criteria for a Perforated Joint is
that the total cross-sectional area of the
holes should be at least equivalent to the
cross sectional area corresponding to
internal diameter of the tubing.

04 Flow Coupling
applications
1. Flow couplings are short sections of thick walled pipe.
2. The additional wall thickness prevents early failures
due to erosion in the turbulent flow area.
3. Installed at points in the tubing string where excessive
turbulence is expected.
• above and below cross-overs,
• above and below a landing nipple, SSSV nipple,
etc.

05 Blast Joint
applications
1. Placed adjacent to perforations
2. Heavy Wall “blast resistant” coating.
• Ceramic
• Tungsten
• Rubber

Flow Couplings and Blast Joints
Flow Couplings and Blast Joints are specialty
Tubulars designed to protect the tubing string from
excessive wear and premature failure.
Flow Couplings (at left) can be installed above and
below tubing nipples. During production turbulence
can exist above and below a nipple due to its
restriction. The Flow Coupling, having thicker walls
than the production tubing onto which it is made
up, accepts the turbulence as opposed to the
tubing.
Blast Joints can be situated in the tubing string
opposite open and flowing perforations. Here,
erosional forces can be extreme. And like the Flow
Coupling, the Blast Joint has thicker walls and
tolerates the erosion better than the tubing.
