Abstract: An expandable sand screen device is described comprising in various examples a rolled-up piece of screen material which is configured to be at least partially unrollable to expand diametrically when located in a wellbore. A piece of screen material may be rolled up to form an expandable roll. In some examples, the expandable sand screen device is run into the wellbore on a running tool and allowed to partially unroll once released from the running tool.
Abstract: A running tool for running an apparatus for patching a wall of a downhole casing and activating the apparatus in a location in the conduit includes a rolled up or curled up piece of material for patching the wall. The piece of material has a surface comprising an adhesive compound for fastening the piece of material securely to the wall of the casing. The running tool has a heater for providing heat for the apparatus for heating the compound and a forcing device for applying a force to the piece of material for forcing or holding the piece of material against the wall of the casing.
