Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1201875A2] A method of locating a tubing string in a bore, the method comprising the steps: providing a device defining a restriction-engaging member; locating the device on the lower end of a tubing string; and then running the tubing string into the bore until the member engages a restriction in the bore and the device and the tubing is prevented from advancing further by the restriction. The member is then re-configured to permit further advancement of the device and tubing relative to the restriction and the device and tubing moved a predetermined distance relative to the restriction to position the tubing at a desired location in the bore. <IMAGE> <IMAGE>
