摘要:
A system that is usable with a wellbore includes a deployment tool that is attached to a conveyance device and has an unexpanded state and an expanded state. The system also includes a scrolled tubular, such as a sand screen, which is attached to the deployment tool. The tubular is scrolled around the deployment tool in the unexpanded state with the scrolled tubular having an outer diameter that is less than an inner diameter of a tubing that is located in the wellbore. The tubular is then unscrolled to expand against a surface in an expanded state of the tubular.
摘要:
A technique utilizes blocking members to resist contraction of expandables in wellbore environments. The technique comprises an expandable having a wall with a plurality of expandable cells. A plurality of blocking members cooperate with at least some of the cells to resist contraction of the expandable device once transitioned to a desired expanded state.
摘要:
The present invention is a method and system for deploying an expandable tubular, such as a sand screen, through a tubing in a subterranean wellbore. The system comprises a deployment tool attached to a conveyance device and having an unexpanded state and an expanded state and a scrolled tubular attached to the deployment tool. The tubular is scrolled around the deployment tool in the unexpanded state with the scrolled sand screen having an outer diameter that is less than an inner diameter of the tubing. The tubular is then unscrolled to expand against a surface in the expanded position.
