A wellbore isolation assembly has an outer housing having an inner bore having a treatment port formed therein, and a floating inner mandrel disposed within the inner bore. The floating inner mandrel can have an inner bore formed therethrough with a fluid port formed therein. One or more fluid chambers, disposed in an annulus formed between the outer housing and the floating inner mandrel, having a working fluid operably disposed therein and one or more inflatable elements operable to receive the working fluid therein. A plunger disposed in the annulus and coupled with the floating inner mandrel and operable to urge the working fluid from the one or more fluid chambers to the one or more inflatable elements. The floating inner mandrel operable to transition between a first position and a second position and the treatment port and the fluid port substantially aligned in the second position.

A technique facilitates actuation of a packer to a sealing and gripping position along a borehole. The packer includes a packer element structure mounted about a center structure. The packer element structure includes a sealing element mounted along an expandable base such that the sealing element may be radially expanded. Additionally, the packer includes an actuator member connected to a portion of the packer element structure via a release mechanism, e.g. a shear member. A plurality of slips may be located on the actuator member such that linear movement of the actuator member causes successive movement of the packer sealing element and then the slips in the radially outward direction. The packer may be constructed such that this sequential setting motion creates a jarring effect to ensure the slips securely bite into the surrounding wellbore surface, e.g. casing surface.

An anchor-packer assembly includes a packer having a slips assembly and a seal. The slips assembly and the seal are radially expandable so as to engage a surrounding tubular. The assembly also includes an anchor coupled to the packer. The anchor includes a slips assembly and is configured to transmit a first torque and a first axial force to the packer, to set the packer. The anchor is configured to be actuated from an anchor running position in which the slips assembly thereof is retracted, to an anchor set position, in which the slips assembly thereof is expanded radially outward, in response to a second torque and a second axial force, and the anchor in the anchor set position is configured to prevent an uphole-directed force on the packer from releasing the slips assembly of the packer from engagement with the surrounding tubular.

Provided is a frac window system, a well system, and a method. The frac window system, in at least one aspect, includes an elongated tubular having a first end and a second end with an opening defined in a wall of the elongated tubular between the first end and the second end, the wall having an inner surface and an outer surface, wherein the opening in the wall is configured to align with a window of a first wellbore casing, and a spacer window sleeve positioned within the elongated tubular, the spacer window sleeve including a tubular having a first tubular end and a second tubular end with a second opening defined in a second wall of the tubular between the first tubular end and the second tubular end, the second wall having a second inner surface and a second outer surface, wherein the second opening in the second wall is configured to at least partially align with the opening in the wall of the elongated tubular.

A sealing assembly is disclosed, the sealing assembly comprising a plurality of components including an upper sealing element and a lower sealing element, the sealing assembly configured to encircle a tubular string positioned within a casing of a wellbore. The sealing assembly is configured to be actuatable to extend sealing elements between the tubular string and an inner surface of the casing to form a fluid seal between the tubular element and the inner surface of the casing.

A plug assembly includes an expandable assembly, a locking ring and a cup. The expandable assembly is adapted to be deformed radially over the locking ring and the cup. The locking ring has a stopping inner surface. The plug assembly is used with one or more untethered objects, the untethered objects having an outer surface adapted to couple with the cup, and the cup having an outer surface adapted to couple with the stopping inner surface of the locking ring. The combination of cup and untethered objects is also adapted to contact an inner surface of the plug assembly and, using well fluid pressure, to apply forces to the plug assembly. The forces cause the longitudinal movement of the cup and untethered objects while contacting the inner surface of the plug assembly until the cup contacts the stopping inner surface of the locking ring.

A sealing apparatus includes a swellable metal. The swellable metal, when exposed to a fluid, is transitionable from an initial configuration having an initial volume to an expanded configuration having an increased volume. The swellable metal, upon transitioning to the expanded configuration in an annulus of a fluid channel, forms a seal against a surface of the fluid channel such that fluid communication across the swellable metal in the annulus is at least partially restricted.
