FLOW BACK OPTION PLUG ASSEMBLY - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240337168 titled 'FLOW BACK OPTION PLUG ASSEMBLY

The abstract describes a system that includes a bridge plug for isolating a section of a wellbore. The bridge plug has a cylindrical body and an engagement assembly that can be extended or retracted. Additionally, there is a plug assembly for regulating flow through the bridge plug.

  • The bridge plug consists of a cylindrical body and an engagement assembly that can extend or retract.
  • The plug assembly is responsible for controlling the flow through the bridge plug.
  • The plug assembly includes a housing, a frangible component for creating a seal, and a pin designed to fracture the frangible component.

Potential Applications: - Oil and gas wellbore isolation - Wellbore maintenance and repair operations

Problems Solved: - Efficient isolation of specific sections of a wellbore - Regulating flow through the wellbore effectively

Benefits: - Improved wellbore maintenance and repair processes - Enhanced control over flow in the wellbore

Commercial Applications: Title: Wellbore Isolation System for Oil and Gas Industry This technology can be used in oil and gas exploration and production operations to improve wellbore isolation and flow regulation, leading to more efficient and effective maintenance and repair processes.

Questions about Wellbore Isolation System: 1. How does the bridge plug in this system differ from traditional wellbore isolation methods? - The bridge plug in this system offers more precise and controlled isolation of specific sections of a wellbore compared to traditional methods. 2. What are the key advantages of using this plug assembly for regulating flow in a wellbore? - The plug assembly provides a reliable and efficient way to control flow in the wellbore, enhancing overall operational effectiveness.


Original Abstract Submitted

a system includes a bridge plug for isolating a section of a wellbore. the bridge plug includes a cylindrical body and an engagement assembly mounted to an outer diameter of the cylindrical body and selectively extendible between a recessed position and an extended position. the system further includes a plug assembly for regulating flow through the cylindrical body of the bridge plug. the plug assembly includes a housing connected to the cylindrical body of the bridge plug, a frangible component that creates a seal within the housing, and a pin disposed within the housing and designed to fracture the frangible component.
