A petroleum well intervention winch system includes a high pressure confining housing for a drum for a rope to a tool string. The pressure confining housing has a connector with an aperture for the rope to a top of a tool string gate chamber on vertical bore BOP valves on a wellhead on the petroleum well. The rope runs through the aperture via a capstan to the drum. The capstan is driven by a first motor through a first high pressure proof magnetic coupling across a wall of the housing. The drum is driven by a second motor through a second high pressure proof magnetic coupling across the wall of the housing. The capstan is subject to a load tension from the rope and is provided with a hold tension on the rope from the drum. The second motor exerts a constant hold tension on the rope via the drum.

Petroleum well intervention winch system

The present invention relates to an arrangement for use with a plug () for sealing against an inner wall of a pipeline (), comprising a main body and sealing means, which sealing means comprises an annular packer element (), arranged between two relative movable body elements () of the main body actuated by actuation means, where the movable elements form surfaces () in abutment against the packer element (). The packer element () comprises a radially inner section () which is mainly incompressible in a direction transverse to a circumferential direction and where sections of the two surfaces () in abutment against the inner section () of the packer element () in a retracted position, forms different angles in relation to an axis in radial direction in relation to a longitudinal axis of the plug.
