The present disclosure describes depth correlation tools and associated methods which do not require wireline depth correlation runs.

Downhole interventionless depth correlation

A configurable metering cartridge includes a body having a tortuous pathway between an inlet and an outlet, and the tortuous pathway includes a plurality of restrictors. At least one valve is in fluid communication with the tortuous pathway and is selectively positionable to allow or prevent fluid flow through one or more of the plurality of restrictors.

Configurable and expandable fluid metering system

A tool string having a pressure dependent mandrel and actuator assembly can operate at the annulus pressure within a wellbore to lock the mandrel actuator assembly and prevent further motion of the mandrel within the tool string as the tool string is moved upward or downward in the wellbore. The tool string can further include a valve connected to the actuator assembly, where the valve can be in an open configuration within the wellbore due to the annulus pressure and related motion of the mandrel, and then be locked in an open configuration regardless of the annulus pressure as the tool string is moved upward or downward in the wellbore.
