Wellbore injection system
A wellbore injection system comprises a tubing hanger mountable within a wellbore tubular, an injection conduit supported by the tubing hanger to extend into the wellbore tubular, and an injection valve mountable within the wellbore tubular and arranged in fluid communication with the injection conduit. The injection valve is removable from the wellbore tubular independently of the tubing hanger and injection conduit.
Chemical injection valve system
A technique facilitates controlled injection of a chemical injection fluid at a desired downhole location. A chemical injection valve is mounted along a well tubing and is disposed externally of an internal flow passage through the well tubing. The chemical injection valve is operated via hydraulic pressure which is applied to actuate the chemical injection valve between closed flow and open flow positions. The chemical injection valve controls flow of the chemical injection fluid to at least one injection port. The at least one injection port may be positioned to inject the chemical injection fluid into the internal flow passage of the well tubing.
DOWNHOLE INFLOW PRODUCTION RESTRICTION DEVICE
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.

SUBSURFACE SAFETY VALVES, ISOLATION TOOLS, AND METHODS OF COUPLING
A subsurface safety valve includes an interior bore and a hinged valve actuatable between an open position and a closed position in which the hinged valve creates a fluid-tight seal with the interior bore. A latching mechanism secures an isolation tool within the interior bore of the valve. The isolation tool includes a tubular body having an exterior surface corresponding to the interior bore and an interior surface defining an internal bore. An annular groove is disposed on the exterior surface of the tubular body, and an annular seal is disposed in the annular groove. An equalization port is disposed downhole of the annular seal, and has one or more apertures for fluidly coupling an upper and lower portion of a wellbore. The subsurface safety valve further includes a control line for controlling the valve at a surface of the wellbore.

Systems and apparatuses for separating wellbore fluids and solids during production
There is provided parts for assembly to produce a flow diverter configured for disposition within a wellbore. The parts include an insert-receiving part including a passageway, and a flow diverter-effecting insert configured for insertion within the passageway. The flow diverter-effecting insert is co-operatively configured with the insert-receiving part such that a flow diverter is defined while the flow diverter-effecting insert is disposed within the passageway. The flow diverter is configured for: receiving and conducting a reservoir fluid flow; discharging the received reservoir fluid flow into the wellbore such that gaseous material is separated from the discharged reservoir fluid flow within the wellbore, in response to at least buoyancy forces, such that a gas-depleted reservoir fluid flow is obtained; and receiving and conducting the obtained gas-depleted reservoir fluid flow.
