Latest Patents
One of Fatih M Kara's latest patents is a tubular expansion apparatus and method. This invention provides tools for expanding downhole tubulars into each other or in open hole applications. One embodiment of the invention utilizes a movable cone that is biased by Bellville washers. This design allows the cone to move longitudinally against the bias, enabling collets to move radially in or out to a predetermined maximum diameter. A release system is incorporated to facilitate collet retraction, preventing hang-ups during removal. In an alternate embodiment, which is more suitable for open hole applications, pressurized gas is used to push a movable cone longitudinally against the collets. A stationary cone is positioned on the opposite side of the collets from the movable cone. The collet rides out or in between the cones, raising the gas pressure when forced in. A pressure actuated release mechanism allows the lower cone to shift downwardly, enabling the collets to retract for removal.
