ROBOTIC PIGGING TOOL

An example system includes a moveable platform having an uphole end and a downhole end. The platform includes a drive arrangement for moving the platform in one or more directions along an interior wall of a casing string in a wellbore. The platform includes scraping arrangement for removing debris from the interior wall of the casing string. The platform includes a debris catching arrangement downhole of the scraping arrangement for collecting some or all of the debris removed. The platform may include a coating arrangement to deliver and apply a substance to at least a part of the wall of the casing string. The coating arrangement may include a reservoir holding one or more liquid substances and a valve to regulate flow of the one or more liquid substances. The liquid substance may include epoxy resin.

A second expander is configured to expand the second expandable tubular. The second expander is downhole of the first expander. A sensor is downhole of the second expander. The sensor is configured to detect a presence of a wellbore obstruction proximal to the tool.

Nested Fin Cement Wiper Plugs

A cement wiper plug for deployment in casing with an inner radius has a central axis, a leading end, and a trailing end opposite the leading end. The wiper plug includes an elongate body. In addition, the wiper plug includes a first plurality of axially adjacent annular fins mounted to the body. Each fin extends radially outward from the body and each fin extends circumferentially about the body. The first plurality of fins includes a first fin and a second fin axially adjacent the first fin. The second fin is axially positioned between the first fin and the trailing end. The first fin and the second fin are configured to contact each other in the casing. The second fin is configured to bias the first fin radially outward and axially forward toward the leading end.

A procedure and apparatus for cementing and cleaning a reservoir liner 3 comprises installing a reservoir liner using a drill string 4 which extends only as far as the distal end of a cased part 2 of the well, then, using the drill string, displacing cement into the reservoir liner using completion fluid whereby, when the cement is in place in the annulus around the reservoir liner, the reservoir liner is already clean and filled with completion fluid. A ball valve 6 at the top of the reservoir liner 3 is then closed before the cased part 2 of the wellbore is cleaned, to avoid debris entering the reservoir liner.
