Abstract

See full text

Apparatus for bending a coiled tubing, the apparatus having a head portion for lateral insertion in a side opening in a wall of a well, the head portion defining a bending path for bending the coiled tubing during feeding thereof through the head portion, and the head portion having a coiled tubing straightener for straightening the coiled tubing during feeding. The coiled tubing straightener is retractable so that it can adopt a retracted position, for lateral insertion of the head portion into the side opening of the well wall. The head portion has, when the straightener is in the retracted position, a profile as viewed in the direction of lateral insertion, and the straightener being extendable for operation to straighten the coiled tubing to an extended position at least partly outside of the profile of the head portion.
