摘要: A drilling jar in an oil and gas drilling operation or fishing operation includes a control unit having one or more transceivers configured to communicate wirelessly with a surface control unit. The control unit is configured to receive an activation signal from the surface control unit, and cause to activate the drilling jar in response to the activation signal. The wireless transceivers may communicate using any wireless communication technology, including but not limited to Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct, and BLE. A method for operating a drilling jar includes receiving, by a control unit comprising one or more transceivers configured to communicate wirelessly with a surface control unit, an activation signal from the surface control unit, and causing to activate the drilling jar in response to the activation signal.

摘要: A smart system for circulating LCM can implement a method. While a wellbore is being drilled in a geologic formation, drilling parameters identifying wellbore drilling conditions of a wellbore drilling system drilling the wellbore are received. The wellbore drilling system flows a wellbore drilling fluid including particulates of different size distributions. The particulates operate as LCM to reduce loss of the wellbore drilling fluid in the geologic formation. Size distributions of the particulates in the wellbore drilling fluid flowing through multiple different wellbore fluid flow pathways of the wellbore drilling system are received. The size distributions represent a concentration of the particulates in the wellbore drilling fluid. A release of certain particulates into the wellbore drilling fluid is controlled based, in part, on the received drilling parameters and the received size distributions of the particulates.

摘要: An unbalanced sub-assembly includes a turbine and a shaft coupled to the turbine at a first end of the shaft. The unbalanced sub-assembly is capable of rotating and imparting a vibration to the casing in response to a fluid being passed through the casing. A rupture disc is positioned on one end of the unbalanced sub assembly. The rupture disc is configured to rupture above a specified differential pressure threshold caused by fluid flowing through the vibration assembly. The rupture disc is capable of allowing the fluid to bypass the unbalanced sub assembly when the rupture disc is in a ruptured state. The rupture disc directs fluid through the unbalanced sub assembly when the rupture disc is in an un-ruptured state.

摘要: A pipe coupling device includes a body configured to connect a first pipe segment to a second pipe segment, a sealing device carried by the body, and an activation unit. The sealing device includes a circumferential element including a first material and a peripheral element connected to an edge of the circumferential element and including a second material that is different from the first material. The activation unit is configured to adjust the sealing device to an activated state in which the sealing device extends radially from the body to form at least a portion of a seal with a pipe that surrounds the body, such that the seal fluidically isolates a first annular region between the first pipe segment and the pipe along a first side of the seal from a second annular region between the second pipe segment and the pipe along a second side of the seal.

摘要: A system for cleaning a wellbore can include a bottom hole assembly that is designed to be run downhole into a wellbore after the wellbore has been drilled and before the wellbore has been cleaned. A control sub-assembly is mounted on and carried by the bottom hole assembly. The control sub-assembly is designed to be positioned within the wellbore. Multiple cleaning sub-assemblies are interchangeably mounted on and carried by the bottom hole assembly. Each cleaning sub-assembly is designed to be positioned within the wellbore. The multiple cleaning sub-assemblies include at least two of the following sub-assemblies: a scraping sub-assembly that scrapes an interior of the wellbore, a brushing sub-assembly that brushes the interior of the wellbore, or a magnetic sub-assembly that magnetically captures debris within the wellbore.

A hydraulic power unit is configured to control the extension and retraction mechanism. Sensors are positioned on or within the cone-type reamer. The sensors are configured to detect parameters of the wellbore-type hole opening system. A controller is operatively coupled to the hydraulic power unit and the sensors. The controller is configured to be positioned in a wellbore. The controller is configured to receive signals from the sensors. The signals represent the parameters detected by the sensors. The controller is configured to identify the parameters represented by the signals. The controller is configured to adjust a parameter of a wellbore-type hole opening operation in response to the received signals.

摘要: Systems and methods for sealing a wellbore are described. The system includes a packing element configured to at least partially seal an uphole portion of a wellbore from a downhole portion of the wellbore. A first annular pressure sensor is positioned uphole of the packing element. The first annular pressure sensor is configured to measure a first pressure within the wellbore uphole of the packing element. A second annular pressure sensor is positioned downhole of the packing element. The second annular pressure sensor is configured to measure a second pressure within the wellbore downhole of the packing element. A control sub-assembly is configured to be positioned within the wellbore. The control sub-assembly is configured to monitor a sealing efficiency of the system by comparing the first pressure and the second pressure.
