  • Patent number: 11230902
    Abstract: A packer module with selective control and fluid bypass can be interactive with other packer modules in a system for isolating and evaluating. The packer module includes a motor section, a conversion section, a control section, a sealing member, and an isolated flow path section. The control section includes a ramp sleeve cooperative with the sealing member to set a retracted configuration, an initial sealed configuration, and an isolated sealed configuration of the sealing member. The isolated flow path section includes an isolated flow path channel. The isolated flow path channel can only be opened with the sealing member in the isolated sealed configuration so that a zone formed by the packer module can be isolated and evaluated. Measuring and detecting instruments along the different flow paths through packer module evaluate the fluid properties of the bypass fluids and isolated fluids through the different flow paths.

  • Patent number: 10253567
    Abstract: A steering assembly includes a housing having a longitudinal axis, a mandrel having a front connecting extremity and a rear connecting extremity, the mandrel passing through the housing and arranged in a first position coaxially to the longitudinal axis of the housing, a deflector device configured to exert a side force on the mandrel to offset the front connecting extremity of the mandrel from the longitudinal axis, and a tool face assembly configured to rotate the front connecting extremity of the mandrel in a desired direction.

  • Patent number: 5996697
    Abstract: A plug is provided which is specially adapted for statically setting a plug portion within an internal profile formed in a wellhead. In an illustrated preferred embodiment, the plug portion is set by application of fluid pressure to a running tool portion. When set in the profile, the plug portion is secured statically relative to the profile, thereby permitting advantageous utilization of a metal-to-metal seal on the plug portion. The plug portion includes features which maintain its set configuration in the profile. The running tool portion includes multiple pistons which enhance operation of the running tool portion. A disclosed verification tool provides an indication that the plug portion has been properly set.
