WIRELINE RETRIEVABLE AUTO Y-TOOL - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18153238 titled 'WIRELINE RETRIEVABLE AUTO Y-TOOL
The system described in the patent application includes production tubing, a Y-tool, and a downhole tool. The Y-tool is installed within the production tubing and divides it into three sections. The downhole tool is designed to be run through the conduit of the first section of the production tubing and installed within it. It consists of a valve assembly, a seal stack, and a locking mechanism. The valve assembly can hydraulically connect the second or third section of the production tubing to the first section. The seal stack mates with a seal bore of the second section, and the locking mechanism mates with a lock profile of the second section.
- The system includes production tubing, a Y-tool, and a downhole tool.
- The Y-tool divides the production tubing into three sections.
- The downhole tool can be run through the first section of the tubing and includes a valve assembly, seal stack, and locking mechanism.
- The valve assembly connects different sections of the production tubing hydraulically.
- The seal stack and locking mechanism mate with specific profiles in the second section of the tubing.
Potential Applications: - Oil and gas drilling operations - Subsea well completions - Hydraulic fracturing processes
Problems Solved: - Facilitates the connection of different sections of production tubing - Enhances the efficiency of downhole operations - Improves the integrity of the wellbore
Benefits: - Increased operational flexibility - Enhanced wellbore integrity - Improved production efficiency
Commercial Applications: Title: Innovative Downhole Tool for Enhanced Wellbore Integrity This technology can be utilized in various oil and gas drilling operations, subsea well completions, and hydraulic fracturing processes. It offers increased operational flexibility, enhanced wellbore integrity, and improved production efficiency, making it a valuable tool for the industry.
Questions about the Innovative Downhole Tool for Enhanced Wellbore Integrity: 1. How does the downhole tool improve the efficiency of oil and gas drilling operations? The downhole tool facilitates the connection of different sections of production tubing, enhancing operational flexibility and efficiency.
2. What are the potential applications of this technology in subsea well completions? This technology can be used in subsea well completions to improve wellbore integrity and enhance production efficiency.
Original Abstract Submitted
A system includes production tubing, a Y-tool, and a downhole tool. The Y-tool is installed within the production tubing and splits the production tubing into a first section, a second section, and a third section. The downhole tool is configured to be run through a conduit of the first section of the production tubing and configured to be installed within the production tubing. The downhole tool includes a valve assembly, a seal stack, and a locking mechanism. The valve assembly is configured to hydraulically connect either the second section of the production tubing or the third section of production tubing to the first section of production tubing. The seal stack is configured to mate with a seal bore of the second section of the production tubing. The locking mechanism is configured to mate with a lock profile of the second section of the production tubing.
