yokes and packoff (POTH) tubing hanger
Explanation:
yugos = yokes
estoperos = stuffing box/ or "packoffs" (POTHS)
bola colgadora = tubing hanger

So, in summary, and the best I can come up with "yokes and packoff (POTH) tubing hanger" (stuffing box is also known as packoff & splitter, or so I am made to understand), and in running the combination of words through Google I have come up with "yokes and packoff tubing hanger"

Here: http://www.scribd.com/doc/78778906/Diccionario-Para-Ingenier...
It gives "estopera" (with "a" at the end) as stuffing box, otherwise "prensaestopa".

Reference: Refs. and observations

Reference information:
I have been working on this from last night, and it has me stumped. These are merely ideas to investigate. This is not very organised but are my thoughts.

***yugos y estoperos de bola colgadora =
My best try: Loosen stems/yokes? and packoff tubing hangers**

Observations:
Yugos = yokes /or stems (I found a PEMEX glossary which gives “stems” as “yugos”).

Bola colgadora = tubing hanger ? (On the net, I found combinations for “packoff tubing hangers” and “tubing hangers boll weevil” (?)
Bola Colgadora

Este dispositivo se coloca en un nido sobre el árbol de válvulas. Su función es sostener la tubería de producción, permitir su paso y el de los tres conductores del cable, proporcionando el sello necesario en el espacio anular entre tubería de producción y de revestimiento para evitar fuga de fluidos a la superficie. Está construida de acero, cubierta de neopreno. En el caso de instalaciones marinas el paso de los conductores del cable, lo tiene integrado y su contacto es como el de la mufa.


Estoperos de = ? (here in where the doubt is), but I found “packoff” and coupled with “tubing hanger” (bola colgadora), there were a number of hits for this combination. Also found “caja de estopas (estopero) – “stripper, but there is doubt whether this refers to the “stuffing box” which is usually “prensastopas”, “caja de estopas”, among others. Also, "The stripper (sometimes referred to as a packoff or stuffing box) provides the primary operational seal between pressurized wellbore fluids and the surface environment".
