Abstract: A system for connecting a male component to a female component comprises a male component comprising a main body including a first compression face, a first tension face, and an outer surface that includes a plurality of first longitudinal splines; a middle element including an inner surface, an outer surface, and a second tension face configured to engage the first tension face, the inner surface including a plurality of second longitudinal splines corresponding to and engaging the first longitudinal splines so as to form a splined interface and the outer surface including a threaded section; and a female component defining a box, the box including a second compression face for engaging the first compression face and an inner wall that includes a wall threaded section corresponding to and engaging the middle element threaded section. The middle element may comprise a plurality of azimuthal segments.

Abstract: A technique facilitates dispersion of injected fluid flow. A well string may be constructed with a screen assembly having a base pipe with a radial port, a filter medium, and a housing positioned along an exterior of the base pipe. The housing is constructed and positioned to form a chamber which receives high-pressure fluid exiting from an interior of the base pipe through the base pipe port. In some applications, a separate nozzle may be mounted in cooperation with the base pipe port. The screen assembly further comprises a dispersion member having features positioned in a flow path of the injected fluid to disperse the flow and thus to reduce the erosive effects.

Abstract: A technique facilitates a well operation employing at least one dehydration tube. The at least one dehydration tube is located along an exterior of a plurality of screen assemblies deployed in a wellbore and is fluidly coupled to a base pipe of at least one of the screen assemblies. The fluid coupling provides fluid access to the base pipe through a base pipe opening. Fluid flow along the at least one dehydration tube is controlled with a flow control mechanism. Additionally, an inflow of fluid from an exterior to an interior of select screen assemblies is separately controlled with an inflow control device associated with each select screen assembly.

Abstract: A technique facilitates regulation of flow through a flow control device to improve a well operation, such as a production operation. The technique utilizes a flow control device which has a valve positioned in a housing for movement between flow positions. The different flow positions allow different levels of flow through a primary flow port. At least one flow regulation element, e.g. a Venturi based flow regulation element, is used in a control line in communication with the valve to establish a differential pressure acting on the valve. The differential pressure is a function of fluid properties and is used to autonomously actuate the flow control device to an improved flow position.
