Abstract
Deployment of coiled tubing may be assisted using an apparatus comprising a source of coiled tubing, a coiled tubing distributor that comprises a passageway adapted to allow engaging the coiled tubing from the source of coiled tubing where the passageway comprises a coiled tubing receiver comprising a predetermined radius and a support frame, connected to the passageway, that is adapted to accept a portion of the coiled tubing therethrough, and a slip disposed intermediate the passageway and the support frame where the slip is adapted to accept a portion of the coiled tubing therethrough. The apparatus may be mounted to a structure and a portion of the coiled tubing deployed from the source of coiled tubing about the coiled tubing receiver through the slip. The apparatus is allowed to compensate for motion of the structure while the portion of the coiled tubing is deployed about the coiled tubing receiver through the slip.
