摘要:
A downhole tool includes a housing configured to couple to a downhole conveyance; a laser tool positioned in the housing and configured to transmit a laser beam sufficient to form a tunnel in a subterranean formation; a chamber positioned in the housing and configured to enclose a shaped members that include at least two laser reflective surfaces; and a perforating head coupled to the housing. The perforating head includes an optical pathway formed to receive the laser beam from the laser tool and output the laser beam toward the subterranean formation through an outlet of the perforating head; and at least one conduit separate from the optical pathway and configured to receive the shaped members from the chamber and output the shaped members through the outlet of the perforating head.

A spallation drilling apparatus is also disclosed that uses jets of hot fluid for drilling. This is compatible with drilling wells in high temperature zones, such as a lava dome. A simplified pyrolysis reactor for use in a lava dome is also disclosed, in which the dome functions to contain the reaction, and the apparatus to facilitate pyrolysis is far more compact.

摘要:
A wellbore is drilled in a formation using a drill string assembly that includes a drill string. A drill bit is connected to a downhole end of the drill string. A notching tool is connected to the drill string. After drilling the wellbore to a depth from a surface in the formation, the drilling is paused. The notching tool is rotated. a notch is formed with the rotating notching tool. In subsequent operations, DSA is removed from the well and the fracturing fluid pumped from the surface can create fractures at the locations of notches. These fractures would improve wellbore connectivity with the reservoir for better oil and gas recovery.
