    摘要: A drilling wedge that has, in addition to a normal connector rod, two wings that extend from the sides of the wedge. These wings are angular members that fill much of the space in the larger casing around the wedge. These wings prevent a milling assembly from sliding past the wedge or from moving off to the side, where an exit through the pipe or casing in the wrong place can occur. Instead, the wings help to keep the milling assembly in the proper position on the tray of the wedge to ensure that the milling assembly reaches the proper exit point in the casing. The wings are retracted when the HEW is deployed through the narrower pipe. Once the HEW is properly positioned, the guide cone is extended and the wings are deployed.

    摘要: A retrievable seal guide (RSG) for installing a seal stem in a polished bore receptacle. The RSG has an outer grapple. Inside the grapple is a mandrel. At the end of the RSG is a bullet nose guide. The mandrel is spring loaded with a spring placed under the grapple Near the rear end of the guide is a plug with an o-ring. Note that the bullet nose has an opening formed in it. A channel is also formed down the length of the device. Note too that for tight formations of non-perforated liners the plug can be replaced with a stainless-steel ball that acts as a check valve. As the RSG is pulled out, the guide is pulled back, which compresses the spring forcing the mandrel back until a cam clears the collapsible fingers on the grapple, which allows the RSG to be withdrawn.

    摘要: A replaceable gas lift valve system. In this system, the device is inserted into the production tubing (or gas producing zone) at a desired level. This allows gas to be pumped down the space between the casing and production tubing (or flowed from the zone). Although the tool is placed in the production tubing, space is provided to allow almost normal production through the tool. Once in place, the device has a metering valve that allows the appropriate amount of gas of other fluid to enter the production tubing to provide lift for the oil. If the device fails, it can be quickly extracted and a replacement device quickly installed. Once installed, the replacement device allows resumed production. The recovered device can be dismantled, repaired and staged for another quick replacement where needed.

    摘要: A milling-drilling section billet and anchoring device that is an improvement over current technology. The invention provides a device that incorporates an aluminum milling-drilling section billet and an anchoring device. The assembly is segregated into three main functional components: a setting tool connector system, an aluminum billet, and an anchoring section. The anchoring section has two slips, offset laterally and positioned 180 degrees apart on the device. When deployed, the slips lock the device in the formation and produce an offset of the billet within the formation. This angular positioning allows a milling head to be moved in a new direction from the existing well formation. Once the device is properly positioned in the wellbore, a frangible member breaks to allow removal of the setting tool prior to the renewed drilling operation.

    摘要: A quick connect liner latch system assembly (QCLL). The QCLL latches each joint of a slick line deployed liner together quickly and easily. This system can set an anchor in an existing well bore at a shallow depth and run a new liner in the well with a slick line unit using the QCLL system. It is a safer operation for the workers and environment and cost savings to the operator. The QCLL has two main sections that are locked together to form the full QCLL. The upper and lowers sections are locked together using a body lock ring. The units are not threaded together, which eliminates the need for a conventional rig for installation. The QCLL is unique because the inside diameter (ID) of the latch can remain large enough to accommodate a standard liner wiper plug for the weight of the liner being run into the well.

    摘要: A tool and method for drilling a secondary hole (window) from a pre-determined position within a well bore into the adjacent rock or formation. The invention includes an internal (relative to the production tubing) primary deflection wedge transitioning into an externally attached (relative to the production tubing) conical device that aids in the exit from the production tubing through the production casing, where a significant standoff exists between the smaller production tubing (completion) and the larger ID production casing. The primary deflection wedge serves as a directional guide to exit the production tubing. The conical device provides a way to transition and support a milling device to exit the adjacent casing at a desired angle without having the milling device move off the preferred course. This two-part assembly is called a tandem wedge kick off assembly.

    摘要: A cementing assembly is mounted to a lower end of a running string. The running string has an obstruction in it such as a cable preventing a wiper dart from passing through. A production string liner wiper plug is secured to the running tool with a shear pin or other device. A dart is temporarily suspended above the liner wiper plug in a manner that cement can be pumped around the dart and through an open bore in the wiper plug. Picking up to let dogs extend followed by setting down releases the dart. Picking up again exposes a lateral port to circulate out contaminated cement. Setting down closes the port and pressure launches the plug to push the cement into the annulus surrounding the string being run in. A passage without restrictions results at the top of the cemented string after the running tool is pulled out of the hole.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus for the delivery of content in a network via a user premises gateway device in communication with one or more user devices. The gateway device receives content from an optical network (e.g., EPON), processes the content onto one or more communication channels, and delivers it to the user devices. In one variant, the gateway includes switching functionality to receive all available programs, or only a portion thereof, and providing specific ones on an as-needed basis to the user device(s) via the channels. Video on Demand (VOD) and pay-per-view (PPV) as well as other unicast services may also be provided by the gateway apparatus. A DOCSIS or other data channel, as well as a dedicated guide data channel, may be among the provided channels.
