Seating nipples
• Seating nipples are landing devices
which have a slightly restricted polished
ID which prevents tools from passing
om
through.
• Seating nipples do not have locking

recesses. ·
l.c
• The tool locates on the shoulder ·
of the
reduced ID section and is held in place
oi
by pressure from above.
• Standing valves are an example of a
downhole tool often located in seating
nipples.
