DOWNHOLE TOOL AND METHOD OF USE
20180010418 · 2018-01-11 ·

A method of using a downhole tool that includes the step of operating a workstring to run the downhole tool into a wellbore to a desired position. The downhole tool includes a mandrel having a proximate end with a first outer diameter; a distal end with a second outer diameter; a flowbore; and an inner set of shear threads disposed in the flowbore at the proximate end.

Method for incorporating scrapers in multi zone packer assembly

Provided is a method for deploying a multi-zone completion assembly, as well as a downhole tool and a well system. In one aspect, the method for deploying the multi-zone completion assembly includes coupling a casing scraper assembly to an inner service tool string hanging from a beginning section of a packer assembly suspended from a rig floor, the inner service tool string located within and extending below the beginning section of the packer assembly, and the casing scraper assembly located entirely below the beginning section of the packer assembly string. In one or more other aspects, the method includes completing the packer assembly string from the rig floor as the inner service tool string and casing scraper assembly are hanging therefrom.

COILED TUBING SPIRAL VENTURI TOOL

A tool and method based on proven technologies, to remove sand and other types of solid particulate materials and fluids from wellbores and conduits, resulting from well-drilling, well-production or both, and consequently to reactivate well production. As time passes, solid aggregates are consolidated, plugging the wellbore, so they can be removed following two stages: disintegration in small particles and its further transport to surface. The tool, modular, composed of different subsystems, is connected to the end of concentric coil tubing, operates promoting the aggregates disintegration by using a spiral jet to impact these solids and suctioning the small particles and well fluids, simultaneously or later, by using jet pumps based on a set of several venturis. Changes between different operation modes are imposed by modifying surface pump pressure levels and the tool does not need to be removed from the wellbore between different stages, reducing the overall operation time.

Plugging assemblies for plugging cased wellbores

A plugging assembly includes a plug and a setting tool attached directly to the plug, wherein the plug includes an elongate core with an uphole end and a downhole end opposite the uphole end, and a sealing element disposed fully around the core to seal against the casing. The plug additionally includes an anchoring system for anchoring the plug to the casing in a fixed position, a compression fitting disposed around the core at or near the uphole end of the core, and a nose at the downhole end of the core. The setting tool includes an elongate housing extending between an uphole end and a downhole end opposite the uphole end, an open passageway extending from the uphole end to the downhole end of the housing, and the downhole end of the housing is aligned to directly engage the compression fitting of the plug.

Gravel pack service tool used to set a packer

Disclosed is a gravel pack service tool that utilizes an internal closure device to set a packer. One disclosed system includes a completion string including at least one packer, a service tool configured to be arranged within the completion string and having an interior that provides a flow path for fluids and a crossover tool, and a closure device arranged within the flow path and being actuatable between an open position and a closed position in response to a signature pressure pulse detected by the closure device, wherein, when the closure device is in the open position, the fluids are able to bypass the closure device and flow to lower portions of the service tool, and wherein, when the closure device is in the closed position, the fluids are prevented from bypassing the closure device and a pressure within the service tool is increased to set the at least one packer.

High-Expansion Well Sealing Using Seal Seat Extender
20230026973 · 2023-01-26 · ·

A sealing tool, system and method for sealing a wellbore achieves increased expansion with the use of a seal seat extender. In one example, a seal seat (e.g., a ball seat) defines an axial flow bore in fluid communication with the wellbore to be sealed, a sealing profile for receiving a loose sealing element (e.g., a ball or dart) to close the axial flow bore, and a tapered outer profile. The seal seat extender is initially disposed against the seal seat and is expandable against the seal seat in response to an axial setting force, such as by sliding up the tapered outer profile of the seal seat and/or buckling outwardly, in response to a setting force. A compliant annular packing element disposed against the seal seat extender is deformable outwardly into sealing engagement with the wellbore in response to the axial setting force.
