A roll-out apparatus, method, and system is disclosed for deployment in a subterranean well at a setting location. The roll-out apparatus, method, and system includes a load ring and an energizing ring. The load ring may include an outer surface having an outer circumference and a slot extending through the entire wall thickness that follows a circuitous path from a front face to a back face of the load ring. The energizing ring includes an outer surface configured to contact an inner surface of the load ring to enlarge the outer circumference of the load ring in a radial direction. This causes the outer surface of the load ring to seal to an inner surface of the subterranean well at the setting location.

Roll-out apparatus, method, and system

A multi-zone, one trip completion system for a wellbore is described. A plurality of isolation packers is installed in borehole to isolate a plurality of zones of the annulus between a tubing string and a wellbore. Each tubing string section is positioned in a zone and comprises a selectively openable stimulation port to provide stimulation fluid to its zone and a selectively openable production port to receive fluid from its zone. The system also comprises a circulation system with a plurality of circulation tubes and circulation tube valves, being configurable in a plurality of configurations to selectively connect, via a circulation flow path, the central bore or the borehole annulus of a wellbore at each of the plurality of sections, to an upper circulation flow path open to an annulus above an uppermost of the plurality of isolation packers.

Multi-zone single trip completion system

A tumbler ring apparatus, method, and system for deployment in a subterranean well at a setting location. The tumbler ring may have a generally oval shape with a major axis and a minor axis. The major axis defining a major diameter of the ring and the minor axis defining a minor diameter of the ring. The major diameter of the ring being larger than the inner diameter of the subterranean well at the setting location, and the minor diameter of the ring being smaller than the inner diameter of the subterranean well at the setting location. The ring is further configured to substantially deform to the inner circumference of the subterranean well at the setting location when tumbled by reducing the major diameter of the ring to cause the ring to generally take the shape of the inner circumference of the subterranean well.

Tumbler ring ledge and plug system

A system and method for conveying a tool to a target sub within a tubular string having a number of subs. Each sub may include at least one ledge or shoulder in or on its interior surface that can be used as a latch stopper or stopper, for receiving and engagement with a latch. The subs may also have a latch deflector or deflector. In one embodiment, the latch deflector is a latch-deflection shoulder protruding into the internal diameter (ID) of the string for deflecting a latch, to be subsequently introduced, out of or into the latch-stopping shoulder. The distance between the latch stopper and the latch deflector, referred to as the 'deflection radius,' may be used as an address that uniquely identifies each sub, and can vary from sub to sub.

Latch mechanism and system for downhole applications

An adjustable and fixed inflow control device is provided. According to one embodiment, the adjustable inflow control device comprises a set of flow path walls defining a flow path that extends from an inlet to an outlet. The inlet may be open to the outer surface of a tubular and the outlet may be fluidly connected to an inner diameter of the tubular. The flow path may be adapted to control flow of fluid between the outlet and the inlet. The inflow control device further comprises a movable regulator that is movable to alter the flow path. The movable regulator may be movable between a number of positions. The inflow control device may be modular.

Inflow control device for wellbore operations

An actuation ball for a downhole tool, the actuation ball includes an outer annular body encircling a bore; and a core releasably installed in the bore, such that the core can be removed to permit back flow through the bore.

Downhole actuation ball, methods and apparatus

Embodiments described herein relate to injecting steam into a wellbore using a device. The device includes a body having a bore configured to communicate steam through the body. The device also includes a sleeve movable in the bore of the body between a first position and a second position, wherein the sleeve in the first position blocks steam from exiting an opening of the body and the sleeve in the second position allows steam to exit the opening of the body. The device can be activated by an activation device conveyed down a tubing string and can include a seat on which the activation device. The seat is expandable to allow the activation device to pass.

Steam diversion assembly

Systems and methods for treating formation intervals including forming a low permeability layer on a surface of the interval and pumping a sand control treating solution through the layer, which diverts the flow into the formation permitting improved treatment uniformity and improved overall internal treatment.

A device and method allows a bore valve in the washpipe and in certain instances a port valve or sliding sleeve to open or close upon command from the surface so that gravel slurry may be placed in a wellbore.

Gravel pack apparatus having actuated valves

Weakly consolidated formations, semi consolidated formations, or unconsolidated formations treated with an aggregating, agglomerating or conglomerating composition, which alters an aggregation or zeta potential of formation surfaces and particulate to increase a maximum sand free production rate of producing formations and increases the injection rate of injection formations.

Weakly consolidated, semi consolidated formation, or unconsolidated formations treated with zeta potential altering compositions to form conglomerated formations

An apparatus and method allow gravel pack slurry to be placed in a borehole annulus from the toe towards the heel to reduce the pressure acting upon the heel of the borehole during the gravel placement operation. By reducing the pressure on the heel, the gravel pack slurry may be placed in longer sections of the borehole in a single operation. Additionally, excess slurry in the inner string can be disposed in the borehole annulus around the shoe track of the apparatus, and fluid returns can flow up the apparatus through a bypass.
