Abstract
A wellbore assembly includes a wellbore string configured to be disposed within a wellbore. The wellbore assembly also includes a float collar coupled to a downhole end of the wellbore string. The float collar includes a housing, a check valve, and a sleeve. The housing includes a fluid outlet. The housing defines a fluid port that extends through a wall of the housing. The check valve is disposed within the housing between the fluid port and the fluid outlet. The sleeve is coupled to the wall of the housing uphole of the check valve. The sleeve moves, based on pressure changes of the fluid in the float collar, with respect to the wall of the housing thereby either exposing the fluid port and opening a fluid pathway from the bore to an annulus of the wellbore, or covering the fluid port and blocking the fluid pathway.
