Abstract

A bottom hole assembly supports a diverter for landing in an existing multilateral junction. Once landed set down weight allows the BHA to progress through the diverter opening into a main bore, for example. A protective sleeve for the seal assembly lands on a shoulder above the targeted seal bore. Further advancing of the BHA moves the seal assembly out of the protective sleeve that has landed on the shoulder by the polished bore. Once the seals are in position in the bore a treatment can be accomplished. On picking up the seal assembly retracts into the protective sleeve and the BHA engages the diverter to bring the BHA and the diverter out of the borehole at the same time.
