Abstract

A device is provided for controlling fluid flow in oil well casings or drill pipes. The device defines a flowpath for fluid through a casing section or drill pipe with the flowpath including a throttling valve which restricts or prevents the flow of fluid therethrough. This can be used to prevent U-tubing in casings or can be used to locate leaks in drill pipes or can be used to monitor the position of successive fluids of differing viscosities in a casing string.
