Abstract: A wellbore assembly includes a wellbore string disposed within a wellbore and a cement retainer coupled to a downhole end of the wellbore string. The cement retainer includes a housing, a packer, a valve, and a sleeve. The housing includes one or more fluid ports extending from an interior surface of the housing to the annulus. The housing defines a first fluid pathway extending from within the wellbore string to within the housing. The sleeve is movable between a first position, in which the sleeve blocks the one or more fluid ports, and a second position in which the sleeve exposes the one or more fluid ports to open a second fluid pathway extending from the annulus, through the one or more fluid ports, to the first fluid pathway. Opening the second fluid pathway allows mixing of a first fluid with a second fluid in the cement retainer.

Abstract: A pipe section is disclosed. The pipe section includes a tubular body with a wall defining an interior flow path extending axially through the tubular body and a turbine assembly assembled to a first portion of the wall. The turbine assembly includes a link rod extending through the wall, from an interior of the tubular body to an exterior of the tubular body, an inner turbine mounted on the link rod in the interior of the tubular body, wherein the inner turbine is rotatable about the link rod, and an outer impeller mounted on the link rod at the exterior of the tubular body, wherein the outer impeller is rotatable about the link rod. The pipe section further includes a protective shield disposed around the outer impeller.

Abstract: Cutters for a downhole drill bit can be formed by providing a catalyst-free synthesized polycrystalline diamond (PCD) having a cross-sectional dimension of at least 8 millimeters; providing a substrate comprising tungsten carbide; and attaching the synthesized PCD to the substrate comprising tungsten carbide to form a PDC cutter.

Abstract: A system and a method for forming a composite electrolyte structure are provided. An exemplary composite electrolyte structure includes, at least in part, polymer electrolyte preforms that are bonded into the composite electrolyte structure.

Abstract: A fluidic agitator includes a seamless insert body having an outer enclosure wall defining an enclosed cavity and a plurality of inner channel walls arranged to define an inlet chamber, a vortex chamber, and a feedback chamber within the enclosed cavity. The inlet chamber, the vortex chamber, and the feedback chamber create a hydraulic pulse in a fluid stream received in the enclosed cavity.
