  • Publication number: 20030107217
    Abstract: A sealant for an expandable connection. The threaded portions of a pair of expandable tubulars are coated with a sealant. The threaded portions of the expandable tubulars are then coupled. The sealant is cured. The expandable tubulars are then placed within a preexisting structure. The expandable tubulars are then radially expanded into contact with the preexisting structure.
