摘要:
An apparatus and method for forming a monodiameter wellbore casing. The casing includes a second casing positioned in an overlapping relation to a first casing. The inside diameter of the overlapping portion and at least a portion of the second casing are substantially equal to the inside diameter of the non-overlapping portion of the first casing. The apparatus includes a support member, an adaptor coupled to the support member, an outer sleeve coupled to the adaptor, a hydraulic slip body coupled to the outer sleeve, a packer cup mandrel coupled to the hydraulic slip body, hydraulic slips coupled to the hydraulic slip body, a shoe coupled to the outer sleeve, an inner mandrel coupled to the shoe and hydraulic slip body, an expansion cone mandrel coupled to the inner mandrel, an expansion cone coupled to the expansion cone mandrel, and a guide nose coupled to the expansion cone mandrel.

An apparatus for radially expanding and plastically deforming a tubular member includes a support member comprising a fluid passage, an expansion device for radially expanding and plastically deforming the tubular member movably coupled to the support member for longitudinal displacement relative to the support member, a plurality of pressure chambers defined by and positioned between the support member and the expansion device fluidicly coupled to the first fluid passage, and one or more releasable supports coupled to the support member adapted to support the tubular member positioned below the expansion device.
摘要:
First and second members, representatively first and second portions of a collet assembly, are removably coupled to one another by aligning slots in the first member with slots in the second members to form opposing slot pairs into which coupling members are inserted in first directions. The inserted coupling members are removed from the slot pairs, in second directions opposite from the first directions, in response to the generation of a fluid pressure.
摘要:
A wellbore casing formed by extruding a tubular liner off of a mandrel. The tubular liner and mandrel are positioned within a new section of a wellbore with the tubular liner in an overlapping relationship with an existing casing. A hardenable fluidic material is injected into the new section of the wellbore below the level of the mandrel and into the annular region between the tubular liner and the new section of the wellbore. The inner and outer regions of the tubular liner are then fluidicly isolated. A non hardenable fluidic material is then injected into a portion of an interior region of the tubular liner to pressurize the portion of the interior region of the tubular liner below the mandrel. The tubular liner is then extruded off of the mandrel.

摘要:
An apparatus for coupling two elements including an outer tubular member defining one or more outer tubular member slots, an inner tubular member defining one or more inner tubular member slots positioned within the outer tubular member, and a coupling assembly for releasably coupling the outer tubular member to the inner tubular member, including a tubular coupling body movably coupled to the inner tubular member, a coupling arm extending from the tubular coupling body, and a coupling element extending from the coupling arm, the coupling element adapted to mate with at least one outer tubular member slot and at least one inner tubular member slot.
摘要:
An expandable tubular liner includes a first tube, a second tube, a mechanical coupling for coupling the first and second tubes, and an insert coupled to the mechanical coupling. The insert is capable of forming a metallurgical bond with at least one of the tubes when energy is injected into the insert.
