Robotic fishing tool

A downhole robotic fishing tool includes a main body configured to be positioned in a wellbore and an intermediate body connected to a downhole end of the main body by an upper articulating joint. A robotic hand is connected to a downhole end of the intermediate body by a lower articulating joint. The robotic hand is configurable between an open configuration and a closed configuration and includes a palm, a robotic thumb and a robotic finger attached at their respective proximal ends to the palm in opposition. When in the closed configuration, the distal ends of the thumb and finger are within a grasp center area centered on a center point defined by an intersection of a grasping axis and an opposition axis of the robotic hand. A camera is positioned on the palm that has an optical axis that intersects the grasp center area proximate the center point.

Electronic releasing mechanism

A releasable tool using an electronic motor to drive a differential to engage or release a quick change sub that may be coupled to additional downhole tools, such as a perforating gun string.

WELL KICK DETECTION

A kick detection system includes an apparatus configured to be retrievably attached to a production tubing in a well. The apparatus includes a housing, a first pressure sensor, a second pressure sensor, and a flow detection device. The first and second pressure sensors are configured to sense respective local pressure of downhole fluid flowing through the housing. The flow detection device is configured to detect a direction of downhole fluid flowing through the housing. The kick detection system includes a computer configured to determine one or more downhole well properties of the downhole fluid based on respective signals received from the first pressure sensor, the second pressure sensor, and the flow detection device. The computer is configured to determine whether a kick is occurring in the well based on the determined one or more downhole well properties of the downhole fluid.

ADVANCED PULLING PRONG
20200190929 · 2020-06-18 ·

Provided, in one embodiment, is a pulling prong. The pulling prong, in one example, includes an outer housing, and a nose assembly slidably located within the outer housing. In this example, the nose assembly and outer housing form an activation chamber. The pulling prong, in this example, may further include activation means located within the activation chamber, the activation means configured to move the nose assembly from a first running configuration to a second retrieving configuration.
