Downhole tool with bottom composite slip
A downhole tool having a mandrel, and a bottom slip disposed around the mandrel. The bottom slip includes a circular body having a one-piece configuration characterized by a plurality of slip segments by at least partial material connectivity therearound. The bottom slip is made of a filament wound composite material, which means the bottom slip has a plurality of layers joined by respective interface layers. An outer slip surface of at least one of the plurality of slip segments is defined in cross-section by a plane P that intersects a longitudinal axis of the downhole tool at an angle a1 when the bottom slip is in an unset position.
Downhole tool and method of use
A downhole tool suitable for use in a wellbore, the tool having a double cone having a dual-cone outer surface. The downhole tool includes a carrier ring disposed around one end of the double cone, and a slip disposed around or proximate to an other end of the double cone. There is a guide assembly engaged with the slip.

Metal-based dissolvable ball seat, setting system and setting method
A metal-based dissolvable ball seat comprises a mandrel, a tail base, a sliding body, a slip and a sealing ring. The mandrel can be disengaged from the tail base under predefined shearing force. The sliding body is disposed to sleeve the mandrel and located above the tail base; the slip is disposed outside the mandrel and slidably abutted against the tail base and the sliding body respectively; the slip and the sliding body are slidably abutted against each other through a first conical surface structure, and/or the slip and the tail base are slidably abutted against each other through a second conical surface structure; the sealing ring is movable along axial direction of the mandrel together with the slip; when the sliding body and the tail base are approaching each other, the slip opens up and the sealing ring expands outward. A setting system and a setting method are provided.

Expandable liner hanger with post-setting fluid flow path
A wellbore completion system includes an expandable liner hanger with a post-setting fluid flow path. The system includes an expandable liner hanger that can be expanded by a running tool prior to a completion operation in a wellbore. The system also includes a circulating sleeve that can be manipulated by the running tool. The circulating sleeve can provide a return path for fluid internal to the expandable liner hanger for the completion operation that is performed subsequent to releasing the running tool from the expandable liner hanger.

Downhole cutting tool positioning assemblies and methods to cut a tubular
Downhole cutting tool positioning assemblies and methods to cut a tubular are presented. The assembly includes a drive screw, a drive nut coupled to the drive screw and configured to shift from a first position to a second position as the drive screw rotates in a first drive screw direction, a pressure piston configured to shift from a first position to a second position in response to force applied to the pressure piston, a chamber having a pressure fluid that is pressurized by the pressure piston as the pressure piston shifts from the first position towards the second position, a sleeve configured to slide from a first position towards a second position in response to pressure from the pressure fluid, and a latch key having a profile configured to shift radially to engage a tubular groove as the sleeve shifts from the first position towards the second position.
