Tubing Hanger Assembly With Wellbore Access, and Method of Supplying Power to a Wellbore
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.

INTERNAL SLIP INCLUDING ONE OR MORE SYMMETRICAL TEETH
Provided is an internal slip, a sealing/anchoring subassembly, a well system, and method. The internal slip, in one aspect, includes a tubular, the tubular having a tubular inner diameter (ID.sub.t) and a tubular outer diameter (OD.sub.t). The internal slip, in this aspect, further includes a first set of teeth disposed along the tubular inner diameter (ID.sub.t), the first set of teeth configured to engage with base teeth disposed on a base outer diameter (OD.sub.B) of a base positioned radially inside of the tubular. The internal slip, in this aspect, further includes a second set of teeth disposed along the tubular outer diameter (OD.sub.t), the second set of teeth configured to engage with stroke sleeve teeth disposed on a stroke sleeve outer diameter (OD.sub.SS) of a stroke sleeve positioned radially outside of the tubular, wherein one or more of the second set of teeth are generally symmetrical about a centerline thereof.
Solid chemicals injection system for oil field applications
Systems, methods and apparatus using a solid chemical as an injectable for inhibiting, decreasing or preventing precipitation and/or deposition of foulants and/or contaminants in oilfield tubulars. The use of solid chemicals providing ease of shipment, greater economy in storage, shipment and delivery and increased ease of use.
Downhole catching apparatus and method
A catching tool assembly, and method of use, for catching an electric submersible pump string or other equipment string in a well bore in the event of a tubing failure. The catching tool is self-orienting so that the tool can be set and retrieved by simply moving the mandrel of the tool up and down, without any need to rotate the equipment string or the mandrel.
Means for accommodating cables in tubing anchoring tools
A tubing anchoring tool connectable to a tubing string and positionable within a well conduit is provided, for preventing movement of a tubing string. The tool comprises one or more axial grooves formed along the length of an outer surface thereof, for accommodating cables placed therein.

Device for gripping an object in a constrained space
A gripper assembly for gripping coiled tubing with lower and upper ball carriers. A first gripper portion and a second gripper portion each have a channel for a bore through the gripper portions. Gripper portions can rotate in relation to each other. Rotation causes the gripper portion to close around an object that passes through the bore. With a translational force, the gripper portions rotate relative to each other to grasp an object.
