Abstract

A retrievable frac mandrel and a well control stack are used to efficiently accomplish well completion, re-completion or workover. The retrievable frac mandrel is inserted in a tubing head spool of a well to be completed, re-completed or re-worked. The well control stack is mounted to a top of the tubing head spool and seals off against a top of the retrievable frac mandrel. Once well completion, re-completion or workover is completed, the frac mandrel can be retrieved from the tubing head spool without killing or plugging the well.
