Abstract: A one-trip through tubing window milling system is disclosed. The whipstock is delivered with the mill and downhole motor in a downhole assembly which further includes MWD equipment for proper whipstock orientation. The entire assembly is run through tubing and the MWD equipment orients the whipstock. A motor lock prevents the downhole motor from turning as fluid pressure is applied to properly anchor the whipstock below the production tubing. The motor lock is defeated and the milling commenced using the downhole motor. At the conclusion of the window milling, the bottom hole assembly, including the mill, is removed and a retrieving tool releases the whipstock for retrieval through the production tubing.

Abstract: A multipurpose tool is disclosed which has as one of its purposes anchoring coiled tubing during certain downhole operations such as milling. In the anchor format the tool is run in in the retracted position and then expanded to get a grip on the casing or tubing in the wellbore prior to actuation of a downhole tool such as a mill, which is generally driven by a downhole motor. A flushing mechanism keeps the anchoring assembly free of debris so that it functions properly. The anchoring assembly employs a linkage of two or more links depending on the size of the tubing against which the coil tubing is to be anchored and the amount of anchoring force required. The same tool through a switchout of linkage components can serve a multitude of other functions on separate runs in the well or on the same run with one tool body. The tool can serve as a sleeve shifting tool, a centralizer, or a tubing end locator. The tool can expand to a ratio of greater than 1.

Abstract: A hydraulic disconnect is disclosed which allows flow therethrough for normal downhole operations. A shiftable sleeve is provided which closes off internal flow passages to permit pressure build-up which is in turn used to move a piston to undermine a dog to facilitate release. Shifting of a sleeve is accomplished by either creating backpressure through flow or by differential pressure between the inside of the joint and the annulus which is used to shift a piston which in turn acts on the release sleeve which in turn blocks a passage so that subsequent pressure build-up can result in shifting of another piston to undermine dogs which allows the joint to separate. The tool transmits torque through its body without stressing the locking dogs. Tensile and compressive loads are handled through the body giving the tool the connection strength of a tool joint.
