A wellbore material transfer system is disclosed, and comprises a downhole fluid conductor defining a downhole-conducting fluid passage, an uphole fluid conductor defining an uphole-conducting fluid passage, a flow controller for opening and closing the uphole-conducting fluid passage, and a completion disposed within a wellbore and defining a wellbore interval between the completion and the wellbore, the completion including selectively openable first and second flow communicators. While the flow communicators are open and the uphole-conducting fluid passage is closed, a subterranean formation zone may be fractured, and flow communication is absent, via the second flow communicator and the uphole-conducting fluid passage, between the wellbore interval and the surface. While the flow communicators and the uphole-conducting fluid passage are open, the wellbore interval may be gravel packed, and a solids-depleted fluid is conductible, via the second flow communicator and the uphole-conducting fluid passage, from the wellbore interval to the surface.

Provided is a downhole zonal isolation assembly. The downhole zonal isolation assembly, in accordance with one aspect, includes a rotating fracturing valve positionable within wellbore casing proximate a fracturing zone of interest. The downhole zonal isolation assembly, according to this aspect, further includes a rotating fracturing valve actuator coupled to the rotating fracturing valve, and rotating fracturing valve electronics coupled to the rotating fracturing valve actuator, the rotating fracturing valve electronics operable to activate the rotating fracturing valve actuator to move the rotating fracturing valve from a first wellbore casing open position to a second wellbore casing closed position.

Provided is a downhole fracturing tool assembly, a well system, and a method for fracturing a well system. The downhole fracturing tool assembly, in one aspect, includes a fracturing port cover coupleable to an interior of a wellbore casing having one or more fracturing ports therein. The downhole fracturing tool assembly, according to this aspect, further includes a fracturing port cover actuator coupled to the fracturing port cover, the fracturing port cover actuator operable to move the fracturing port cover between a first position sealing the one or more fracturing ports from an interior of the wellbore casing and a second position exposing the one or more fracturing ports to the interior of the wellbore casing, and fracturing port cover electronics coupled to the fracturing port cover actuator proximate the fracturing port cover, the fracturing port cover electronics operable to activate the fracturing port cover actuator.

A valve assembly for integration within a wellbore string disposed within a subterranean reservoir is provided. The valve assembly includes a valve housing having one or more injection ports for establishing fluid communication between a central passage and the reservoir. The valve assembly includes a valve sleeve operatively mounted within the valve housing and comprising a fluid channel adapted to establish fluid communication between the central passage and the injection ports, and configured to create a fluid flowrate restriction. The valve assembly has a flow adjuster connectable to the valve sleeve, and is selectively arranged to align an opening with the fluid channel and allow fluid to flow from the fluid channel through the opening to the injection port, wherein connecting the flow adjuster to the valve sleeve defines a flow length of the fluid channel to adjust the fluid restriction created by the fluid channel.

A liner string includes a liner hanger assembly and a liner hanger deployment assembly. The liner hanger assembly includes a liner hanger. The liner hanger includes a plurality of slips and a liner hanger actuation assembly configured to set the plurality of slips. The liner hanger deployment assembly is disposed within the liner hanger assembly. The liner hanger deployment assembly includes a setting tool configured to selectively allow fluid communication between a central bore of the setting tool and the liner hanger actuation assembly.

An actuation member for use in fracking operations, which immediately prior to fracking locates a sand screen at a desired location along a tubing liner and eliminates having to trip out the frac string prior to commencing production. The actuation member comprises a cylindrical hollow collet sleeve, with one or more radially-outwardly biased protuberances forming a unique profile which further matingly engages a corresponding mating profile on one of a plurality of sliding sleeve members in the tubular liner. A longitudinally-extending sand screen is provided, longitudinally slidable on the actuation member. A spring member, adapted to be forcibly compressed by the sand screen member when pressurized fluid is applied, and decompressed upon removal of pressurized fluid, is further provided on the actuation member.

A system and method of reverse stage cementing in which flow into a casing string from an annulus between the casing string and wellbore walls is pressure dependent; the flow is blocked after stage completion. The flow enters the casing string through a cementing sub integrally formed in the casing string. A flapper valve is in a sidewall of the cementing sub that opens when pressure in the annulus reaches a threshold value, and remains open until the annulus pressure falls below the threshold value. Flapper valve actuation is controlled by a hinge spring that is calibrated to open and close the flapper valve based on the annulus pressure. Also in the cementing sub is a sleeve that is positioned behind the flapper valve after the reverse stage cementing is completed. Sleeve actuation is timed to allow adequate time for the flapper valve to return to the closed position.

A system and method for fracturing multiple zones along a length of a wellbore during a single run are provided. A single magnetic shifter device may be lowered on coiled tubing to shift open multiple sleeve assemblies set along the wellbore to expose different fracture zones for desired fracturing treatments. The sleeve assemblies may each include a magnetic sensing system designed to detect a magnetic field output from the shifter device. The magnetic sensing system may output a control signal to an electro-hydraulic lock to collapse a baffle component of the sleeve assembly. Once the baffle is collapsed, an isolation component of the shifter device may engage the collapsed baffle to form a plug through the wellbore. Pressure applied from the surface may push the baffle and a sliding sleeve of the sleeve assembly downward, thereby exposing fracturing ports through the casing of the wellbore.

An apparatus has been described, including a tubular housing including opposing first and second end portions and defining an interior surface, an exterior surface, and an internal flow passage; an open inflow area extending radially through the tobular housing and adapted to distribute the radial flow of a fluid from the internal flow passage to the wellbore; a closure member extending within the tubular housing and adapted to cover the open inflow area; and a filter defining a plurality of gaps, the filter concentrically disposed about the exterior surface of the tubular housing and extending axially along at least the open inflow area. In an exemplary embodiment, the open inflow area includes a plurality of openings formed radially through the tubular housing and defining a tubular injection interval extending axially along the tubular housing. A system and assembly have also been described, each incorporating elements of the above described apparatus.

The invention relates to a multistage high pressure fracturing system and tubular hydraulic valve (THV) system for connection to a completion string to enable isolation of a zone of interest within a well. In particular, the system enables access to a downhole formation for fracturing the zone of interest and for hydrocarbon production. The system generally includes a plug counting system, a plug capture system and a valve system wherein dropping a series of plugs down the completion string enables successive capture of individual plugs within individual THVs for subsequent fracturing operations.
