Abstract:
A tool includes a shaft having a front end and a distal end; a displacement mechanism for extending and retracting the shaft; and one or more pivoting tool elements coupled to the tool shaft proximate to the distal end of the shaft, wherein the one or more pivoting tool elements includes a body having an upper element and a lower element, wherein the one or more pivoting tool elements includes a pivot point about which the upper element and lower element pivot while coupled to the shaft. A method includes extending the tool shaft and the pivoting tool element into a bore of the flow control device; pivoting the pivoting tool element while extending the tool shaft through a removable component of the flow control device; and removing the removable component from the flow control device by retracting the tool shaft through the bore of the choke.
