Abstract:
A tubing hanger assembly for suspending a tubing string within a wellbore. The tubing hanger assembly comprises a tubing head and a tubing hanger. The tubing hanger lands within the tubing head to gravitationally support a string of production tubing. The tubing hanger includes an auxiliary port extending from the upper end to the lower end. The auxiliary port receives unsheathed conductive wires from a power cable. To secure the conductive wires within the auxiliary port and to prevent shorting, the conductive wires are placed within a unique disc stack. The tubing hanger assembly further includes a bottom plate residing along the lower end of the tubular body and securing the disc stack. Thus, the tubing hanger assembly is arranged to receive a continuous power cable from a power source into the wellbore, through the auxiliary port, without the conductive wires being spliced.
