Disclosed herein are compositions, processes, and systems for deploying and creating a temporary fluid barrier at an interface between a high fluid conductivity zone and a lower fluid conductivity zone. The disclosed compositions include mixtures of solvents and biodegradable non-spherical particles, wherein the particles include a coating that may slow or inhibit degradation, for example by hydrolysis, of the particle. The disclosed particles are designed to possess sufficient flexibility to traverse the high conductivity zone.

A one-trip screen installation and cleaning system includes a tubular supporting a screen. The tubular has an inner surface defining a flow bore positioned radially inwardly of the screen. At least one actuator extends radially inwardly from the inner surface and is positioned axially offset relative to the screen. The at least one actuator includes at least one actuator surface. A wash pipe is arranged in the flow bore. The wash pipe includes a bypass valve including a selectively openable outlet port, a spray cleaning device arranged axially outwardly of the selectively openable outlet port, and an inflow control valve arranged between the selectively openable outlet port and the spray cleaning device.

This disclosure provides a downhole debris removal apparatus, a method for operating a downhole debris removal apparatus, and a well system including the same. The downhole debris removal apparatus, in one aspect, includes an inner pipe positioned within a tubular, and a filtration member substantially encircling the inner pipe. The downhole debris removal apparatus, in this aspect, further includes a cleaning assembly positioned radially about at least a portion of the filtration member, the cleaning assembly configured to move relative to the filtration member to dislodge particulate matter from the filtration member.

The invention provides a fluid discharge apparatus (102) and a method of use. The apparatus (102) comprises a body (106) comprising an inlet (122) configured to receive fluid from a fluid source, and one or more fluid discharge ports (140). A valve arrangement (124) in the body (106) is operable to be cycled to provide an interrupted flow of fluid through the body (106). The valve arrangement (124) may be disposed in the body (106), and/or may be operable to be moved between a first condition in which fluid entering the body (106) from the inlet (122) is prevented from passing through the apparatus (102), and a second condition in which fluid is discharged through the one or more fluid discharge ports (140). The valve arrangement (124) may be operable to cycle between the first condition and the second condition to provide an interrupted flow of fluid through the body (106).

The present invention relates to an automatic cleaning device for suction port of electric submersible pump. The pipe string joint is connected between the oil pipe and the electric submersible pump. A plurality of oil drain passage inlets, steel balls, return springs, sealing plugs and oil drain passage outlets are evenly distributed in circumferential direction of a boss. The upper end of the connecting pipe is connected with the outlet of the oil drain passage, and the lower end is connected with the nozzle. The retaining ring secures the connecting pipe on the housing of the electric submersible pump. A high-pressure fluid ejected from the nozzle directly acts on the suction port of the electric submersible pump. The present invention can automatically clean the suction port of the electric submersible pump by relying on the pressure difference between the outlet and the suction port of the electric submersible pump.

A method of well rehabilitation using CO.sub.2 comprises a more effective distribution of effective CO.sub.2 energy throughout an entire well structure including all parts of a producing interval of a well and surrounding formation. The CO.sub.2 phase changes are controlled during CO.sub.2 injection to cause surging agitation within a well bore and surrounding formation and allow CO.sub.2 energy to reach all areas of the well, and the CO.sub.2 energy utilized includes at least one of chemical energy, thermal energy and mechanical energy.
