A removable modular control assembly includes a structure including a first end portion, a second end portion, and an intermediate portion. A first interlock feature is arranged at the first end portion and a second interlock feature is arranged at the second end portion spaced from the first end portion. At least one shell member includes a first end section, a second end section and an intermediate section having at least one control module receiving section formed therein. The first end section includes a first interlock element engageable with the first interlock feature and the second end section includes a second interlock element engageable with the second interlock feature. The at least one shell member is configured to be strain locked to the structure through a lengthening of the intermediate portion.

Removable modular control assembly

A downhole tool includes a tool body having an inner surface portion and an outer surface portion. The outer surface portion includes a recess having a peripheral wall and an inner surface. A multi-chip module (MCM) housing is defined in the recess. The MCM housing includes one or more fortifying members that support axial and radial loading of the downhole tool and include one or more electronics receiving zones.

Downhole tool including a multi-chip module housing

A downhole tool includes a tool body having an outer surface portion and an inner surface portion and a recess formed in one of the outer surface portion and inner surface portion. At least one removable electronic component access member is detachably mounted to the tool body. The removable electronic component access member provides access to electronic components housed in the recess. A metallic seal is provided on at least one of the tool body and the removable electronic component access member. The metallic seal prevents fluid ingress into the recess through the at least one removable electronic component access member.

Removeable electronic component access member for a downhole system

An electronic frame for use in a downhole component coupling mechanism in a segmented wired pipe system includes a first frame element including at least one retaining structure configured to retain an electronic component. The frame also includes a sealed chamber disposed in the frame element, the sealed chamber including inputs to receive input signals from communication elements and either couple the inputs together or direct the input signals to control electronics.

Electronic frame having conductive and bypass paths for electrical inputs for use with coupled conduit segments

In one aspect, an apparatus for use in a wellbore is disclosed that in one embodiment includes a tool having a rotating member adapted to be coupled to a drill bit and a steering device that includes a force application device that tilts the drive member and a rotational drive that maintains the force application device geostationary.

Apparatus and method for drilling deviated wellbores that utilizes an internally tilted drive shaft in a drilling assembly

A directional drilling apparatus include a first cutter that substantially cuts a wellbore bottom along a first axis and a second cutter that cuts the wellbore bottom along a second axis different from the first axis. The second cutter may extend an adjustable amount out of the first cutter. The pilot string may connect the second cutter to the first cutter.
