SYSTEM AND METHOD UTILIZING BALL SEAT WITH LOCKING FEATURE
20230084218 · 2023-03-16 ·

A technique facilitates pressure application downhole by locking a ball in place to prevent it from unseating even if the pressure is bled off. A ball seat is constructed with a locking feature for effectively capturing and retaining the ball once the ball is seated in the ball seat under sufficient pressure. According to an embodiment, the ball seat may be mounted at a desired position along an internal flow passage of a well string component. The ball seat comprises a throat section which is formed of a ductile material arranged in a suitable structure to enable a desired deformation upon receiving the ball under sufficient pressure. As the ball is pressed into the throat section, the material of the throat section deforms and partially springs back to resist movement of the ball in the uphole direction, thus capturing the ball in both the uphole direction and the downhole direction.

Downhole tool activation and deactivation system

A system provides for the remote activation and deactivation of a downhole tool such as an agitator tool. The downhole tool uses a dart-catching section configured with a profile that engages with a corresponding key section of a dart. Different tools in the string may have different profiles, allowing darts to pass through tools to reach a tool with a matching profile further downhole. The dart includes a removable nozzle that can be detached by a object dropped from the surface, after which a second dart may be dropped to engage with the first dart to change operating parameters of the tool.
