A lineable tubular for use in subterranean exploration and production, such as oil, gas, and geothermal wells. The tubular may be part of a downhole tool string, including drill pipe and related downhole tools that may be found in the bottom hole assembly. The tubular may comprise a modified interior surface along its bore wall. The modified surface may comprise hard particles, rifling, threads, ridges and grooves, sand and ceramic grit, and knurling. The modified surface may aid in securing a liner within the tubular. The tubular may include connectable ends with box and pin end tool joints. The tool joints may be attached to an upset end of the tubular. The modified surface may run the length of the tubular or it may be restricted to the upset ends of the tubular and the respective tool joints. The tubular may comprise a seal gland within the tool joints.

A hydrocarbon reservoir is treated with heat to induce gasification, water-gas shift, and/or aquathermolysis reactions to generate gases including hydrogen. The hydrogen alone is produced to the surface by using hydrogen-only membranes in the production wells.

A technique facilitates formation of a gravel pack along relatively lengthy wellbores. According to an embodiment, a completion system comprises a plurality of screen assemblies. The completion system also has an alternate path system disposed along the plurality of screen assemblies. The alternate path system includes shunt tubes, e.g. transport tubes, coupled together by jumper tubes. An anti-buckling structure is coupled to each jumper tube to prevent buckling when high operational pressures, e.g. operating pressures of 9000 psi or higher, are applied to the alternate path system.

A technique facilitates formation of a gravel pack along relatively lengthy wellbores. According to an embodiment, a completion system comprises a screen assembly and an alternate path system disposed along the screen assembly. The alternate path system may include a transport tube and a packing tube placed in fluid communication at a manifold. The manifold is disposed along the screen assembly. In some embodiments, the completion system may comprise multiple screen assemblies with multiple corresponding manifolds. The packing tube is protected against erosion by a liner and a surrounding housing which are positioned to conduct fluid flow from the manifold as fluid flow moves from the transport tube, through the manifold, and into the packing tube during a gravel packing operation.

A technique facilitates a gravel packing operation in a well. The system may utilize a Y-manifold having a manifold body through which or along which a gravel slurry may be flowed. A plurality of exit end shunt connectors extends from the manifold body to enable connection with corresponding exit end shunt tubes at a position separated from the manifold body. Additionally, a plurality of entrance end shunt connectors extends from the manifold body in a direction generally opposite the exit end shunt connectors. The extended entrance end shunt connectors enable connection with corresponding entrance end shunt tubes at a position separated from the manifold body.

A nozzle for controlling the flow of fluids into and/or out of a hydrocarbon-bearing reservoir comprises a fluid passage extending between first and second openings. The passage comprises a flow adjusting region for increasing the velocity of fluids injected into the reservoir and for choking steam produced from the reservoir.
