Abstract
A cement plug system includes a first plug configured to catch a first obstruction member and actuatable from a locked configuration to an unlocked configuration in response to an axial force transmitted to the first plug by the first obstruction member, and a second plug adjacent to the first plug and configured to catch a second obstruction member, the second plug having a pass-through configuration in which the first obstruction member passes through the second plug, and a catching configuration in which the second plug catches the second obstruction member, the first obstruction member is at least as large as the second obstruction member. The second plug actuates from the pass-through configuration to the catching configuration in response to the first plug shifting from the locked configuration to the unlocked configuration, and the first plug in the unlocked configuration separates from the second plug.
