An injection valve for introducing fluids into a subsurface environment includes a valve housing including a conduit having an inlet and an outlet. A valve seat member is arranged in the valve housing. The valve seat member includes an outlet portion and a valve seat. An anti-rotation dart is arranged in the valve housing. The anti-rotation dart includes a valve element that selectively extends into the outlet portion and is engageable with the valve seat. An anti-rotation feature is provided on at least one of the valve seat and the anti-rotation dart. The anti-rotation feature constrains rotation of the anti-rotation dart relative to the valve seat.

Anti-rotation fluid injection dart

An injection valve for introducing fluids into a subsurface environment includes a valve housing including a conduit having an inlet and an outlet. A valve seat is arranged in the valve housing. An anti-rotation dart is arranged in the valve housing adjacent the valve seat. The anti-rotation dart includes a valve element that is selectively engageable with the valve seat. An anti-rotation feature is provided on at least one of the valve seat and the anti-rotation dart. The anti-rotation feature constrains rotation of the anti-rotation dart relative to the valve seat.

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.

Downhole device including a fluid propulsion system

An axial and rotational alignment system including a casing string having an axial orientation feature and a rotational orientation feature; and a tubing string having an axial and rotational orientation assembly thereon, the assembly including a rotational alignment subassembly having a selectively actuable member that is selectively engagable with the rotational orientation feature.

Axial and rotational alignment system and method

A flexible protector including a protector housing, clearance space defined by the housing the clearance being dimensioned and positioned to preserve flexibility of the housing while isolating a placed device from bending therein upon flexing of the housing. Also disclosed is a resource recovery system including a spoolable conductor, a device disposed in line with the conductor, and a spoolable protector disposed about the device. A method for protecting a device inline in a spoolable conductor including contacting the device with a buttress of a first half protector, securing conductors in the half protector, and interconnecting a second half protector with the first half protector. A method for instrumenting a target environment.

Flexible protector and method

A fluid injection valve comprising: a valve body including a first end having a first opening, a second end having a second opening, an outer surface and an inner surface defining a fluid pathway extending between the first end and the second end; a seat arranged along the fluid pathway; a restriction device selectively abutting the seat; a biasing member arranged in the fluid pathway abutting the restriction device; urging the restriction device against the seat; a biasing element having a biasing force urging the biasing member against the restriction device; and a magnet functionally connected to the biasing element, the magnet selectively forcing the biasing member axially outwardly of the restriction device against the biasing force.

Fluid injection valve

A pressurized seat check valve including a flexible frustoconical seat having a back surface configured for exposure to upstream pressure, a closure member in sealable communication with the seat, the closure member being biased into contact with the seat and, in use, the seat being deflected toward the closure member by the exposure to upstream pressure.

Pressurized seat check valve

An injector head unit includes one or more drive chains revolving within a common plane mounted on an upper drive sprocket and a lower drive sprocket, wherein at least one of the upper and lower drive sprockets are configured to move vertically to tension the drive chains, and at least one fixed reference point proximate to at least one of the upper and lower drive sprockets, wherein relative positioning of one of the movable upper and lower drive sprockets with the fixed reference point indicates to a user an amount of elongation of the drive chains after a certain period of time.

Chain service indicator

A cable retainer for a downhole tubing string includes a body; a detent extending from the body; a relief between the detent and the body facilitating deflection of the detent to allow passage of a cable; and a detent lip extending from the detent. A method for securing a cable to a tubular.

Cable retainer and method

A coiled tubing injector unit insert assembly includes a gripping insert configured to be coupled to a carrier block, the insert comprising a tongue with a first cutout configured to engage a shaft extending within a carrier block pocket, the shaft having a first diameter portion and a second larger diameter portion and a junction between the two shaft diameters that is located within the carrier block pocket to couple the gripping insert to the carrier block.

Quick-release gripping insert assembly

A coiled tubing unit includes a coiled tubing reel skid comprising a load supporting skid frame having a plurality of guide post sleeves and a reel skid landing platform comprising a plurality of guide posts that mate with the plurality of guide post sleeves, wherein mating of the guide posts with the guide post sleeves is configurable so that the coiled tubing reel skid is disposable at multiple positions on the landing platform. The coiled tubing unit is configurable for many different weight distribution requirements.
