    摘要: A pressure control device for sealing about a tubular at a wellsite can include a rotatable member, at least two radial seals that sealingly contact the rotatable member, at least two fluid chambers, one chamber being exposed to the rotatable member between the radial seals, and a pump that pumps fluid between the chambers in response to rotation of the rotatable member. A method of operating a pressure control device at a wellsite can include providing at least two chambers in a bearing assembly of the pressure control device, and regulating pressures in the chambers via a valve system in communication with both of the chambers.

    摘要: A mill for use in a wellbore includes a tubular housing having a bore therethrough, a plurality of pockets formed in a wall thereof, and a blade disposed in each pocket. Each blade includes a body having a first side opposite a second side, wherein the first side faces in a direction of rotation of the mill. The blade also includes a blade portion disposed on the first side of the body, wherein the blade portion has a first cutting face stepped relative to a second cutting face. Each blade is movable between a retracted position and an extended position, wherein a portion of the first side and the second side protrude from the housing in the extended position.

    摘要: A method for drilling a wellbore includes drilling the wellbore by injecting drilling fluid into a top of a tubular string disposed in the wellbore at a first flow rate and rotating a drill bit. The tubular string includes: the drill bit disposed on a bottom thereof, tubular joints connected together, a longitudinal bore therethrough, a port through a wall thereof, and a sleeve operable between an open position where the port is exposed to the bore and a closed position where a wall of the sleeve is disposed between the port and the bore. The method further includes moving the sleeve to the open position; and injecting drilling fluid into the port at a second flow rate while adding a tubular joint(s) to the tubular string. The injection of drilling fluid into the tubular string is continuously maintained between drilling and adding the joint(s).
