Zusammenfassung:A subsea well assembly includes a wellhead housing 50 having a cylindrical inner sealing surface and a tubular hanger 10 having a tapered external sealing surface. The running tool 30 includes a central stem 40 connected to the running string. A setting piston 72 is responsive to fluid pressure in the annulus about the running string, and has a radially outer surface and a radially inner surface each for sealing with the running tool body. Fluid pressure to set the seal assembly may be applied to the setting piston through an annulus about the running string, and may also act directly on an initially set seal assembly 20.
