A method and apparatus for patching damaged areas in a well includes a top and a bottom patching section which include an anchor/sealing member for securing the apparatus within the well. One or more extension patch sections are connected between the top and bottom patch sections. The top and bottom patch elements are placed above and below the damaged area to isolate the damaged area from the exterior flow portion of the well.

A bottom hole assembly can include a mill and a whipstock having an upper end and an opening. A retractable pin extends from the mill into the opening. A section of the whipstock is separable from the whipstock in response to a force applied to the mill. The section is positioned between the opening and the upper end. A method can include positioning a bottom hole assembly in a well, the bottom hole assembly including a whipstock releasably secured to a mill, and then releasing the mill from the whipstock by separating a section of the whipstock from a remainder of the whipstock. Another method can include conveying a bottom hole assembly into a well, setting an anchor, then applying pressure to a hydraulic release mechanism, and then applying a force to the mill, thereby separating a section of the whipstock from a remainder of the whipstock.

A completion sleeve includes a body that defines an inner passage and a window that provides a lateral exit from the inner passage. A deflector is positioned within the inner passage and is pivotable between a stowed position, where the deflector is received within a pocket defined in a sidewall of the body, and a deployed position where the deflector is positioned to deflect downhole tools laterally through the window. An actuator is positioned within the sidewall and operatively coupled to the deflector. The actuator is actuatable to move the deflector between the stowed and deployed positions.

A unitary multilateral junction for deployment in a wellbore, wherein the multilateral junction permits electrical power and communications signals to be established in both a lateral wellbore and a main wellbore utilizing capacitive coupling and a cavity resonator. The unitary junction assembly generally includes a conduit with a first upper aperture, a first lower aperture and a second lower aperture where the first lower aperture is defined at the distal end of a primary passageway extending from a conduit junction and a second lower aperture defined at the distal end of a lateral passageway extending from the conduit junction. A lower wireless energy transfer mechanism in the form of a capacitive coupler is positioned along at least one of the passageways between the distal end of the passageway and the junction. A cavity resonator is adjacent the capacitive coupler to enhance the electric field signal of the capacitive coupler.

Provided, in one aspect, is a deflector assembly. The deflector assembly, in one embodiment, includes a deflector body having a deflector window located therein, and a deflector ramp positioned at least partially across the deflector window, the deflector ramp configured to move between first ({circle around (1)}), second ({circle around (2)}) and third ({circle around (3)}) different positions when a downhole tool moves back and forth within the deflector body.

Horizontal wells and multi-completion vertical wells generally have a greater performance requirement on downhole gas separators to separate a gas portion from a liquid portion of the well fluid prior to entering an artificial lifting system (or pump). Implementations described and claimed herein provide a downhole gas separator comprising a dip tube extending from a tubing inlet to an open end, a tubing section extending around the dip tube, and a separator sleeve extending around the tubing section. A liquid component of the fluid stream makes a first u-turn at the open end of the separator sleeve, an s-turn at the openings in the tubing section, and second u-turn at the open end of the dip tube. A gaseous component of the fluid stream continues upwards at the open end of the separator sleeve.
