A system for use in down hole operations, the system comprising a
wellhead; a BOP ram package connected at one end to the wellhead and
having an axial bore extending from the wellhead to the other end; a
device above the other end of the BOP ram package for isolating the
pressure of the wellhead; a fluid take off between the pressure
containing means and the BOP ram package; a separator in communication
with the fluid take of such that, in use, a multi-phase medium obtained
from the well can be separated into its constituent phases; and a
pressure control device on each of one or more outlets from the separator
for allowing the system to be operated at different wellhead pressures.
