摘要:
An embodiment of a method for forming slots in a wellbore casing, comprises providing at least one cutting tool, the cutting tool comprising at least a jetting assembly and an indexing assembly, disposing the cutting tool into the wellbore via a conveyance, stopping movement along the wellbore axis of the cutting tool, and forming slots in the casing by actuating the indexing assembly such that the jetting assembly forms slots in a predetermined pattern in the casing. In an embodiment, the method further comprises flowing a material into the slots formed in the casing to seal the wellbore.

A wellbore tool, a wellbore fluid treatment string and a method with an indexing mechanism including a crown ratchet sleeve. The indexing mechanism can be shifted through one or more inactive positions before finally shifting into an active condition. The indexing mechanism is particularly useful with a plug that lands in a seat to impart an axially directed force on the mechanism before passing through the seat.
摘要:
A mechanical counting device for actuating a plurality of output devices, the device comprising: linear indexing means adapted to count a plurality of actuating signals and to cause actuation of the output devices when a predetermined number of actuating signals for each output device has been received, wherein the mechanical counting device is adapted to cause actuation of a particular output device when a different predetermined number of actuating signals has been received such that the output devices are sequentially actuatable.

A downhole tool (38) comprises a housing (42) having a fluid passageway (84), a mandrel (44) having an interior volume (50), the mandrel (44) being slidably disposed within the housing (42), and the mandrel (44) having a plurality of axial positions relative to the housing (42). The mandrel (44) is slidably operated responsive to the fluid pressure within the interior volume (50) such that the mandrel (44) cycles through the plurality of positions. A retractor sleeve (64) is operably associated with the housing (42) and the mandrel (44) for engaging the mandrel (44) and slidably urging the mandrel (44) relative to the housing (42). The retractor sleeve (64) is slidably operated responsive to the fluid pressure within the interior volume (50). A seal assembly (72) is slidably disposed around the housing (42), the seal assembly (72) including a floating piston, the housing (42) and the floating piston defining a chamber (84) therebetween. The chamber (84) is in communication with the fluid passageway (84) of the housing (42) such that the fluid pressure within the interior volume (50) enters the chamber (84) and slidably urges the seal assembly (72) to stretch the seal assembly (72).
摘要:
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.
