MULTI-ZONE PERFORATE AND TREAT SYSTEM AND METHOD
20230127815 · 2023-04-27 ·

A downhole well tool assembly can include a perforator and a selectively openable and closable perforation plug discharge port. A method of perforating and treating multiple formation zones of a well in a single trip of a downhole well tool assembly into the well can include positioning the downhole well tool assembly at a zone, closing a perforation plug discharge port of the downhole well tool assembly, perforating the zone, treating the zone, opening the perforation plug discharge port, deploying perforation plugs into the well via the perforation plug discharge port, plugging perforations in the zone with the perforation plugs, positioning the downhole well tool assembly at a subsequent zone, closing the perforation plug discharge port, perforating the subsequent zone, and treating the subsequent zone.

Hybrid stimulation tool and related methods

This application relates to systems and methods for stimulating hydrocarbon bearing rock formations using a downhole hybrid tool for discharging a fracturing solution to a wellbore in the formation and for delivering an output laser beams to the rock formation.

Cutting pipes in wellbores using downhole autonomous jet cutting tools

A downhole autonomous jet cutting tool includes a main body with a generally cylindrical configuration. The main body includes a locking unit actuable to engage the tool to an inner surface of the pipe, a hydraulic motor with a rotor and a stator, and a rotatable jet cutting nozzle assembly operable to emit a stream of fluid to cut the pipe. The tool also includes a sensor module to detect interactions between the pipe and walls of the wellbore and a control unit in electronic communication with the sensor module and the locking unit. The control unit can identify, based on output of the sensor module, a location where interaction between the pipe and the walls of the wellbore limits downhole movement of the pipe, actuate the locking unit to engage the tool in the inner surface of the pipe, and initiate the stream of fluid from the nozzle assembly.

Wellbore shaped perforation assembly

A well tool for generating a shaped perforation in a cased wellbore includes a tool body. The told body has at least one wall, a fluid channel, a first perforation device, and a second perforation device. The at least one wall defines an opening and an interior volume. The fluid channel extends from the opening of the at least one wall into the interior volume. The first perforation device is configured to form a perforation tunnel in the cased wellbore disposed in a formation. The second perforation device is coupled to the first perforation device and to the fluid channel. The second perforation device is configured to form the shaped perforation in the formation by flowing fluid received through the fluid channel to the formation through the perforation tunnel.

WORKFLOWS TO ADDRESS LOCALIZED STRESS REGIME HETEROGENEITY TO ENABLE HYDRAULIC FRACTURING

A method includes identifying one or more stress regime types along at least a portion of a borehole, where the stress regime types are selected from a normal stress regime, a thrust stress regime and a strike-slip stress regime, and selecting reservoir access locations along the borehole based on the type of stress regime identified along the borehole.

Acid soluble abrasive material and method of use

A method of treating a formation, a wellbore, or equipment in a wellbore is disclosed herein. The method includes introducing a soluble abrasive material into a wellbore for various oil and gas operations. The method also includes introducing an acidic solution into the wellbore to dissolve at least a portion of the soluble abrasive material to allow for more efficient removal of the soluble abrasive material from the wellbore.
