A technique is provided to form perforations in a wellbore. The formation of perforations is carefully controlled by a perforating device to create a series of sequential perforations in a desired arrangement. The perforating device is lowered to a desired location in the wellbore and then moved incrementally to enable sequential perforations in the desired arrangement.

A drilling tool, adapted to drill a wellbore in an earth formation, comprises a weight on bit equalizer shock sub. The weight on bit equalizer shock sub includes a precharged nitrogen chamber and additional chambers, the nitrogen in the nitrogen chamber adapted to telescopically open the equalizer shock sub during the drilling of the wellbore thereby maintaining a constant weight or force on the drill bit during the drilling operation. A force resultant from the pressurized nitrogen exists in the nitrogen chamber and additional forces resultant from a pressurized wellbore fluid exist in the additional chambers. The shock sub is specially designed in a particular manner to cause the sum of the force of the nitrogen in the nitrogen chamber and the additional forces of the wellbore fluid in the additional chambers to be equal solely to the force of the nitrogen in the nitrogen chamber. As a result, the weight or force on the drill bit is constant when the sum of the force in the nitrogen chamber and the additional forces in the additional chambers is equal solely to the force of the nitrogen in the nitrogen chamber. In a preferred, second embodiment, when the additional chambers include an atmospheric chamber, the weight or force on the drill bit is constant when the cross sectional area of the atmospheric chamber is equal to the cross sectional area of the nitrogen chamber. As a result, the only force on the drill bit during drilling is the force of the precharged nitrogen in the nitrogen chamber and consequently a constant weight or force on the drill bit is maintained during the drilling operation.

A method and apparatus for selectively actuating a dual check valve assembly within a well for a direct circulating operational mode or a reverse circulating operational mode. A tubular housing which may be connected to well tubing is provided with a check valve assembly and may be provided with a rotatable J-slot mode indexing sleeve having an internal J-slot geometry. An inner tubular member which also may be connected to well tubing is linearly movable within the tubular housing to a valve open position, an indexing position and a valve enabled position being controlled by the J-slot geometry of the J-slot indexing sleeve or being controlled by moving the inner tubular element and resisting movement of the tubular housing. Relative positioning of the inner tubular member and the tubular housing to selective valve mode positions may also be achieved responsive to fluid flow, by mechanical compression, or by motion operation.

A packer and service tool assembly for oil or gas well preparation includes a disengageable coupling mechanism which permits the tool to be screwed into and out of the packer and which can be hydraulically disengaged so that the tool can be removed without applying torque to the tool or workstring. A releaseable ratchet mechanism is also provided in the packer for trapping the setting loads when the packer is set in the casing. The ratchet mechanism is releasable by pulling up a housing portion which cammingly engages collapsible ratchet fingers thereby disengaging the ratchet finger trapping teeth from a stationary ratchet ring.

In accordance with an illustrative embodiment of the present invention, a pressure controlled well tester apparatus having a full-bore ball valve closure element includes valve actuator means responsive to changes in the pressure of fluids in the well annulus for moving the ball valve between its open and closed positions, and bias means responsive to the hydrostatic pressure of fluids in the well bore for assisting in moving the ball valve to its fully closed position.

An inflatable well packer apparatus comprises a generally tubular resilient body that is internally reinforced by a plurality of biased plys or layers of tire cording. The ends of the tire cording layers extend beyond the ends of the resilient body where they are secured to end fitting assemblies having gripping engagement therewith.
