    摘要: There is provided a flow control apparatus including a housing, a port, a flow control member, a sensor, and a trigger. The housing includes a housing passage. The port extends through the housing. The flow control member includes a fluid responsive surface, and is configured for displacement, relative to the port, such that fluid communication is effected between the port and the housing passage. The sensor is coupled to the housing for sensing an actuating signal. The trigger is configured for effecting fluid communication between the housing passage and the fluid responsive surface, in response to the sensing of an actuating signal by the sensor, for effecting displacement of the flow control member.

    摘要: There is provided a plug comprising a seat-engaging member that is deployable to a seating-ready condition such that the seat-engaging member is disposed for becoming displaced into engagement with a seat of the flow control apparatus when, while the plug is being conducted through the housing passage, the seat-engaging member becomes aligned with the seat, wherein the engagement of the seat-engaging member with the seat is such that the plug becomes seated on the seat such that establishment of a displacement-actuating pressure differential is effectible across the plug for effecting the displacement of a flow control member of the flow control apparatus for effecting opening of the port; and a seating actuator for effecting transmission of an applied force to the seat-engaging member, in response to the sensing of the trigger, for effecting the disposition of the seat-engaging member in the seating-ready condition; wherein, while the seat-engaging member is disposed in a seating-ready condition, the applied force is being transmitted by the seating actuator to the seat-engaging member, and when the seat-engaging member becomes aligned with the seat, the applied force effects the displacement of the seat-engaging member into the engagement with the seat.

    摘要: A valve assembly for integration within a wellbore string is provided. The valve assembly has a valve housing with a housing port, a bottom sleeve mounted and slidable within the valve housing between closed and open positions, and a top sleeve mounted within the valve housing and defining an annular region therebetween. The top sleeve has a sleeve port and is slidable within the valve housing between a first position where the top sleeve engages the valve housing and defines an annular chamber within the annular region, and a production position where the sleeve port is in fluid communication with the housing port to define a fluid pathway along which fluids flow from the reservoir through the annular chamber. While in the first position, the annular chamber has an inlet allowing fluid to flow into and pressurize the annular chamber to prevent particulates from flowing into the annular region.

    摘要: 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.

    摘要: A flow control apparatus is provided comprising: a housing including a port; a housing passage disposed within the housing; a flow control member, displaceable, relative to the port, for effecting opening of the port; and a co-operating member. The flow control member and the co-operating member are co-operatively configured such that displacement of the flow control member, relative to the port, is with effect that a force is applied by the flow control member to the co-operating member, with effect that a seating surface is obtained for receiving a flow communication interference body that is being conducted through the housing passage. The seating surface is obtained in response to a deformation effected by the applied force.

    摘要: A downhole component for integration in wellbore string is provided. The downhole component includes fluid conduits enabling fluid flow therethrough and a sealing element connected to the fluid conduits and operable between a disengaged configuration, where the sealing element is disengaged from an inner surface of the wellbore, and an engaged configuration. The downhole component also includes an actuation assembly having a blocking member releasably secured to the fluid conduits and a fluid-pressure operable actuation member slidably connected to the fluid conduits adapted to engage and operate the sealing element from the disengaged configuration to the engaged configuration. The downhole component has a release mechanism operable to release the blocking member to enable the sealing element to revert to the disengaged configuration, wherein the release mechanism is adapted to be selectively and independently operated relative to additional release mechanisms associated with adjacent downhole components along the wellbore string.
