TUBING WITH SELECTIVE ACTIVATED LANDING PROFILE FOR WELL COMPLETION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17960541 titled 'TUBING WITH SELECTIVE ACTIVATED LANDING PROFILE FOR WELL COMPLETION
Simplified Explanation
The tubular joint for a well string described in the abstract includes an elongated tube with a thrusting element affixed to its inner surface and a landing pad secured to the thrusting element by a spring. The landing pad is designed to move outward from the outer surface relative to the thrusting element.
- Thrusting element affixed to inner surface of tubular joint
- Landing pad secured to thrusting element by a spring
- Landing pad moves outward from outer surface relative to thrusting element
Potential Applications
The technology could be used in oil and gas drilling operations to improve the efficiency and reliability of well strings.
Problems Solved
The tubular joint design helps prevent damage to the well string during drilling operations by providing a cushioning effect when the landing pad moves outward.
Benefits
- Increased durability and longevity of well strings - Enhanced safety during drilling operations - Improved overall performance of the drilling equipment
Potential Commercial Applications
"Enhancing Well String Performance with Tubular Joint Technology"
Possible Prior Art
There may be prior art related to similar designs for tubular joints in well drilling equipment, but specific examples are not provided in the abstract.
Unanswered Questions
How does the spring mechanism work to secure the landing pad to the thrusting element?
The abstract does not provide details on the specific mechanics of the spring mechanism and how it functions within the tubular joint design.
What materials are used in the construction of the tubular joint to ensure durability and reliability in harsh drilling environments?
The abstract does not mention the materials used in the construction of the tubular joint, which could be crucial for its performance and longevity in challenging drilling conditions.
Original Abstract Submitted
A tubular joint for a well string includes an elongated tube that includes an inner surface and an outer surface; a thrusting element affixed to the inner surface of the tubular joint; and a landing pad disposed along the tubular joint, the landing pad secured to the thrusting element by a spring. The landing pad is configured to move outward from the outer surface relative to the thrusting element.
