This disclosure provides a dissolvable sealing joint system that can be used in an improved method of sealing a multi-lateral well junction. The sealing joint system is comprised of a dissolvable junction subassembly that can be easily removed after a sealing operation is conducted. A tapered end of the dissolvable junction subassembly is inserted in a liner of a secondary wellbore, and a seal located about the tapered end is sealed against the top of the liner and a no-go shoulder of dissolvable junction subassembly. Once a seal is established, an isolation fluid is pumped into the junction area via a fluid port located in the dissolvable junction subassembly. A method of isolating a wellbore junction is also presented.

Method and device for multilateral sealed junctions

A method of forming a subterranean gas storage vessel is provided. A wellbore is drilled through the surface of the ground into the ground, and a casing is inserted into the wellbore, the casing having a size such that a wellbore annulus is formed between the outside surface of the casing and the wall of the wellbore. A cement sheath is then formed in the wellbore annulus, and the interior of the casing is sealed to help prevent gas from inadvertently escaping therefrom. The cemented and sealed casing can then be used as a storage vessel to store and dispense gas such as compressed natural gas (CNG).
