Method and system for operating a downhole tool, for fracturing a formation and/or for completing a wellbore
Systems and methods for use in wellbore completion and/or for operating a downhole tool, such as a downhole tool associated with well fracturing, include a tool assembly having a lower packer, an upper packer, a first downhole tool in the form of a flow control device, a second downhole tool in the form of a fracture tool, a plurality of production tools and a plurality of screens. Each tool assembly includes or is associated with a downhole actuator in the form of a shifting tool which is operable to actuate one or more of the first downhole tool, second downhole tool or production tools in use. The actuator may be disposed on, or operatively associated with a string, such as a tubular string. All operations are performed with a body of the shifting tool in tension.
HIGH PRESSURE CABLE HEAD CONNECTOR
The present invention relates to a sealing cable connector device for high-pressure applications including a first connector part (1) and a second connector part (5) including an axial channel for allowing a cable (6) to extend, the first connector part having a cylindrical channel with a radially oriented inner surface (1a) and the second connector part being adapted to be introduced into said channel and having a corresponding shape in the radial direction, said second connector part having a radially oriented front end surface (4a), the first and second connector parts including locking means being adapted to applying an axial force and lock the parts together after connecting. At least one spring bevel ring (2) is positioned at the inner surface in said cavity having radial dimensions corresponding to radial dimensions of the cavity between the cable and outer walls of the cavity.
Jumper tube support member
A method and apparatus according to which a connection between first and second completion joints is made up. The first and second completion joints each include a base pipe and a shunt tube disposed along the base pipe. The respective base pipes of the first and second completion joints are threadably engaged to form a pin and box connection. The shunt tube of the first completion joint is coupled to the shunt tube of the second completion joint using a jumper tube. The jumper tube is supported at a position longitudinally between the respective shunt tubes of the first and second completion joints using a first support member. In some embodiments, the first support member is longitudinally slidable along the base pipe of the first or second completion joint to the position between the respective shunt tubes of the first and second completion joints.
OUT OF CENTER DOWNHOLE TOOL
A tubular component configured to be interposed between parts of a drill string used with a cased wellbore. A lobe is supported on and projects from an outer surface of the tubular component. The lobe causes the tubular component to have a cross-sectional profile that is asymmetric relative to an axis of symmetry of the drill string. As the drill string and tubular component rotate, the lobe contacts debris within the wellbore. The lobe also causes the drill string to rotate eccentrically, helping to reduce friction between the drill string and wellbore and dislodge a stuck drill string.

Pipe Coupling Make Up Assembly
A pipe coupling make up assembly and a method of making up a pipe coupling between tubular sections at a well. A first tubular section in a tubular string at the well is gripped and supported in the assembly. A second tubular is supported and moved to locate a first end of the second tubular section into an expanded first end of the first tubular section. A swaged die is arranged around the first tubular section and forced along the first tubular section towards the second tubular section. This causes the expanded first end to move radially inwards under elastic and plastic deformation and create a metal to metal seal between the first ends of the first and second tubular sections.
