A downhole tool suitable for use in a wellbore, the tool having a double cone having a dual-cone outer surface. The downhole tool includes a carrier ring disposed around one end of the double cone, and a slip disposed around or proximate to an other end of the double cone. There is a guide assembly engaged with the slip.

Downhole tool and method of use

A downhole tool having a mandrel, and a bottom slip disposed around the mandrel. The bottom slip includes a circular body having a one-piece configuration characterized by a plurality of slip segments by at least partial material connectivity therearound. The bottom slip is made of a filament wound composite material, which means the bottom slip has a plurality of layers joined by respective interface layers. An outer slip surface of at least one of the plurality of slip segments is defined in cross-section by a plane P that intersects a longitudinal axis of the downhole tool at an angle awhen the bottom slip is in an unset position.

Downhole tool with bottom composite slip

A setting tool assembly configured to couple with a part of a workstring, the assembly having an inner housing coupled with one or more other components. A trigger device is coupled with a movable piston. During run-in, the piston is in a first position. Upon activation, the trigger device undergoes an altering event whereby the piston moves to a second position as a result of a pressure acting thereon.

A downhole tool having a mandrel, and a bottom slip disposed around the mandrel. The bottom slip includes a circular body having a one-piece configuration characterized by a plurality of slip segments by at least partial material connectivity therearound. The bottom slip is made of a filament wound composite material, which means the bottom slip has a plurality of layers joined by respective interface layers. An outer slip surface of at least one of the plurality of slip segments is defined in cross-section by a plane P that intersects a longitudinal axis of the downhole tool at an angle ain a range of 10 degrees to 20 degrees when the bottom slip is in an unset position.

A setting tool assembly having an adapter housing configured to couple with a part of a workstring, and an inner housing coupled with the adapter housing. A trigger device is coupled with a movable piston. During run-in, the piston is in a first position. Upon activation, the trigger device undergoes an altering event whereby the piston moves to a second position as a result of a pressure acting thereon.

A downhole tool suitable for use in a wellbore that includes a wedge mandrel having a distal end; a proximate end; an outer surface; and a flowbore. The tool includes a fingered member disposed around the wedge mandrel. The tool includes a ball seat insert disposed in the flowbore, as well as a support platform disposed in the flowbore.

A downhole tool having a mandrel, a first slip, a second slip, a lower sleeve, and a tethered ball assembly. The mandrel includes a proximate end; a distal end; a bore having a ball seat associated therewith; and an outer surface. The first slip is disposed around the mandrel. The second slip is disposed around the mandrel. The lower sleeve is proximate to the first slip, and engaged with the outer surface at the distal end. The tethered ball assembly includes a ball; a drag; and at least one tether coupled between the ball and the drag.

A fingered member for a downhole tool that includes a circular body made of a composite material, and also a plurality of fingers integral to and extending from the circular body. At least one of the plurality of fingers has an insert carriage disposed therein. The insert carriage is made of a reactive metallic material.

Fingered member with dissolving insert

A downhole tool for use in a wellbore that includes a mandrel; a first slip disposed around the mandrel, the first slip further comprising a one-piece configuration; a first cone disposed around the mandrel, and proximate to the first slip; a second slip disposed around the mandrel; a second cone disposed around the mandrel; a sealing element disposed around the mandrel, and between the first cone and the second cone; and a lower sleeve disposed around the mandrel, and proximate to the first slip. The mandrel further includes a distal end having a first outer diameter; a proximate end having a second outer diameter; wherein a relief point is formed in the proximate end.

A downhole tool suitable for use in a wellbore, the tool comprising a hybrid sleeve in the form of a mandrel sleeve; and a sleeve insert disposed within the mandrel sleeve. The tool further includes a first slip disposed about the mandrel sleeve; and a second slip disposed about the mandrel sleeve and proximate to a conical surface. There is a lower sleeve proximate to the second slip. At least a portion of the sleeve insert is radially laterally proximate to a sealing element disposed around the mandrel.

Downhole tool and methods of use

A downhole tool having a mandrel, with a fingered member and a conical member being disposed around the mandrel. There is a solid-body insert positioned proximately to each of the fingered member and the first conical member. The fingered member comprises a plurality of fingers configured to move from a first position to a second position.

A downhole tool configured to pass through a narrowed diameter, the downhole tool having a mandrel made of a composite material. The tool has a fingered member disposed around the mandrel, a fingered bearing plate disposed around the mandrel, and also a fingered lower sleeve disposed around and coupled to the mandrel. The tool further includes a first slip and a second slip.

One-piece slip

A downhole tool for use in a wellbore, the tool having a metal slip made of a reactive metallic material. The downhole tool further includes a mandrel made a composite material, a seal element, and a composite slip. The composite slip has a circular composite slip body having one-piece configuration with at least partial connectivity around the entire circular composite slip body, and an at least two slip grooves disposed therein.
