摘要:
An embodiment of a downhole device includes an elongated body configured to be deployed in a borehole in an earth formation, the borehole including a borehole fluid. The device also includes a propulsion system attached to the body and configured to move the device through the borehole. The propulsion system includes one or more rotor blades configured to generate thrust using the borehole fluid. At least part of the one or more rotor blades is disposed external to the elongated body.

摘要:
An aperture design minimizes erosion on the surrounding casing and to the aperture itself and is particularly effective in fluid injection wells where large volumes of fluids over a long period of time with entrained solids are expected to be pumped through. The preferred design is an elongated shape with a flaring wider in the downhole direction. The downhole end of the opening features an exit that flares in the downhole direction with multiple slopes with an arc transition. Other options for the opening configuration are envisioned.

An element including an undercut in the element extending from an innermost surface of the element radially outwardly into the element, and a pathway intersecting the undercut and extending from the undercut to an outermost surface of the element, the pathway fluidly connecting the outermost surface of the element to the undercut prior to setting of the seal.

A flow control device including a flow channel having a housing defining an inside surface, the inside surface having an irregular helical structure of constant orthogonal cross-sectional dimensions.
摘要:
A system includes a tubular having an interior surface, a longitudinal axis, a flowbore, and a main portion having a first inner diameter. A vibration inducing feature is disposed along the interior surface of the tubular and is immovable with respect to the tubular, and has a second inner diameter within the tubular that is different than the first inner diameter. The feature has a beveled first end surface and a beveled second end surface, the beveled first and second end surfaces longitudinally displaced from each other. The feature is configured to increase turbulence within the flowbore and configured to dissuade a capture of objects passing therethrough. A sensing system includes a sensor arranged to detect vibration within flow passing the vibration inducing feature, and is configured to output a command signal in response to sensed data reaching a threshold value or indicative of a predetermined pattern.
