A completion string, including an upper completion having a shifting tool, and a lower completion having a hydraulic releaser and a valve responsive to the shifting tool. A method for completing a well, including running the completion string in a borehole, establishing pressure integrity, applying tubing pressure to release the hydraulic releaser, and shifting the valve. A method for completing a well, including running an upper completion connected to a lower completion into a borehole, releasing a hydraulic releaser with applied tubing pressure, and shifting a valve in the lower completion with movement of the upper completion. A wellbore system, including a borehole in a subsurface formation, an upper completion and a lower completion in the borehole, a hydraulic releaser connecting the upper completion to the lower completion, the hydraulic releaser being responsive to applied tubing pressure to releaser the upper completion from the lower completion.

Completion string, method, and system

A downhole tool including a gravel pack assembly, a remotely addressable actuator connected to the gravel pack assembly, and a valve responsive to the actuator, the valve opening and closing a washdown path through the tool. A method for gravel packing a borehole including running a tool to a target depth in the borehole, flowing washdown fluid through the tool, sending an electric signal to the actuator to close the valve, and flowing through a cross over port of the gravel pack assembly. A borehole system including a borehole in a subsurface formation, a tool disposed within the borehole.

Downhole tool, method and system

An apparatus for determining a location of a downhole component includes at least one transmitter device and a receiver device. One of the at least one transmitter device and the receiver device is disposed at a first component of a borehole string configured to be deployed in a borehole and retained at a stationary position, and another of the at least one transmitter device and the receiver device is disposed at a moveable component configured to be moved while the first component is at the stationary position, the at least one transmitter device configured to emit a wireless signal and the receiver device configured to detect the wireless signal when the first component is at the stationary position. The apparatus also includes a processing device configured to receive signal data and estimate a location of the moveable component relative to the first component based on the signal data.

Downhole position measurement using wireless transmitters and receivers

A method of controlling degradation of a degradable material including forming a fluid in a hydration unit, admixing one or more additives to the fluid in a blender, introducing the fluid into a wellbore, injecting a degradation fluid between the hydration unit and the blender. The degradation fluid forms a degradation zone in the fluid. A degradable component formed from a degradable material is introduced into the degradation zone, and the degradable material and the degradation zone is pumped into a wellbore.
