A downhole component for integration in wellbore string is provided. The downhole component includes fluid conduits enabling fluid flow therethrough and a sealing element connected to the fluid conduits and operable between a disengaged configuration, where the sealing element is disengaged from an inner surface of the wellbore, and an engaged configuration. The downhole component also includes an actuation assembly having a blocking member releasably secured to the fluid conduits and a fluid-pressure operable actuation member slidably connected to the fluid conduits adapted to engage and operate the sealing element from the disengaged configuration to the engaged configuration. The downhole component has a release mechanism operable to release the blocking member to enable the sealing element to revert to the disengaged configuration, wherein the release mechanism is adapted to be selectively and independently operated relative to additional release mechanisms associated with adjacent downhole components along the wellbore string.

To perform an aligned operation downhole, a tubular disposed downhole has an internal bore with a first inner circumference and has a target at a first radial orientation. A locator profile is defined about the internal bore at a first location, and an internal nipple is defined about the internal bore at a second location. The internal nipple has a second inner circumference less than the first of the internal bore. An orientation slot is defined longitudinally across the internal nipple and is disposed at a second radial orientation configured relative to the first radial orientation of the target. A tool is deployable into the internal bore. The tool has a locator to engage in the locator profile and has an orientation key to engage in the slot and align an operational component for the aligned operation with the target.

The present invention relates to a downhole inflow production restriction device for mounting in an opening in a well tubular metal structure arranged in a wellbore, the downhole inflow production restriction device comprising a device opening, and a brine dissolvable element configured to prevent flow from within the well tubular metal structure through the device opening to an outside of the well tubular metal structure before being at least partly dissolved in brine, wherein the brine dissolvable element is at least partly made of a magnesium alloy. The present invention also relates to a downhole completion system and to a completion method.

An insert safety valve system includes a valve body including a valve member. The valve body includes a central passage and a flow path arranged radially outwardly of the central passage. A release sub is coupled to the valve body. The release sub is configured and disposed to support a downhole tool. A connector member selectively couples the release sub and the valve body.

A well screen assembly includes a tubing including a center bore and at least one aperture through the tubing between an outer radial surface of the tubing and an inner radial surface of the tubing; a filtration screen positioned around the tubing; a housing positioned around the tubing and including a fluid chamber in fluid communication with an outlet of the filtration screen; and a flow control device positioned in fluid communication with the outlet of the filtration screen and the at least one aperture to reduce a wall shear stress on at least one of the tubing or the at least one aperture.

A wellbore lining system that puts liners into place immediately behind the drill head tool is used in drilling and for preparing natural gas hydrate (NGH) deposits for production of its natural gas. The system overcomes the requirement of setting casing from the wellhead, which controls well bore diameter with depth and allows for flexibility in well bore size at any depth. Wellbore liners stabilize the well walls by being very tightly fitting against bounding rocks and sediments, which overcomes the requirement for cementing, which commonly accompanies conventional well casing. In addition, liners can be emplaced with designed impermeability, permeability, and complex flow-through patterns so that production processes, such as sand flow, can be put in place as part of a liner section.

A well tool can include a closure member having open and closed positions, a seat having a flow passage blocked by the closure member in the closed position, and a line extending through the seat. A communication method can include positioning a conduit in an interior of a well tool, and conducting a signal via the conduit between annular structures surrounding a longitudinal flow passage of the well tool. A well system can include a well tool connected in a tubular string, a flow passage of the tubular string extending through the well tool, the well tool including a closure member having open and closed positions, in which the closure member respectively permits and blocks flow through the flow passage, an annular cavity surrounding the flow passage, and a line, the closure member and the line being positioned in the annular cavity in the open position.

A downhole actuator (30) comprises a tubular housing (34) which includes an indexing profile (42) on an inner surface thereof, and an indexing sleeve (46) mounted within the housing (34). The indexing sleeve (46) comprises an engaging arrangement including first and second axially spaced engagement members (52, 54) which cooperate with the indexing profile (42) of the housing (34) to be sequentially engaged by an actuation object (48) passing through a central bore (50) of the indexing sleeve (46) to drive the indexing sleeve (46) one discrete step of movement through the housing (34) towards an actuation site.

A bypass diverter sub including a housing defining a flow passage, a control line bypass piston arranged within a control line bypass bore defined in a wall of the housing, and a balance line bypass piston arranged within a balance line bypass bore defined in the wall. An outer magnet is disposed within a magnet chamber and is operatively coupled to the control and balance line bypass. A flow tube profile is positioned within the flow passage and provides an inner magnet magnetically coupled to the outer. The flow tube profile is movable between a first position, where control line and balance line pressures circulate through the bypass diverter sub to a subsurface safety valve, and a second position, where the control line pressure is diverted into the flow passage and the balance line pressure is diverted into a balance line jumper conduit.
