Abstract
A no-go apparatus for positioning a tool within a landing nipple in a tubing string in a subterranean well includes a mandrel axially movable within the tubing string having selectively radially expandable latches for engaging a specially shaped annular groove formed on the inside cylindrical surface of the landing nipple, thereby preventing downward movement of the latches and mandrel past the groove. The latches are configured to prevent their engagement by any groove or projections in the tubing string other than the correspondingly shaped groove.
