A downhole hydraulic fracking system comprising of a downhole reservoir stimulating tool, an injector tool, and a compression tool, configured to convert compressional strain energy gained from the compression of the drilling tubulars above the tool into multiple high-pressure fluid pressure waves, that then propagates down the drill string and into the subsurface formation causing artificial cracks and fractures; resulting in enhanced rock permeability and increased production of fluids from the sub-surface formation.

Downhole reservoir stimulating system and methods

A vibrating downhole tool includes a housing having a central axis defined therethrough, an inner mandrel disposed within the housing and configured to receive a drilling fluid, wherein the inner mandrel is misaligned relative to the housing central axis, and a plurality of turbine blades configured to receive the drilling fluid and to rotate the inner mandrel, thereby causing the downhole tool to vibrate.

Vibrating downhole tool and methods

A vibrating downhole tool comprising a housing, an inner mandrel disposed within the housing and configured to receive a drilling fluid, a mass coupled to the inner mandrel, and a plurality of turbine blades configured to receive the drilling fluid and to rotate the inner mandrel and the mass, thereby causing the vibrating downhole tool to vibrate.
