  • Publication number: 20240183244
    Abstract: A technique facilitates collecting data, related to a fracturing, run-in-hole, or pull-out-of hole operation. A frac plug is provided with electronics for obtaining the desired information related to the operation. For example, the frac plug may be constructed with electronic sensors, a digital storage device, and a power supply or other power related equipment. Depending on the application, the frac plug may be a composite frac plug, degradable frac plug, dummy frac plug, or other suitable frac plug. Retrieval of the information obtained may be done via coupling with an associated device, e.g. inductive or physical coupling, by utilizing a broadcast transmitter/receiver, by physical retrieval of the storage device, or by physical retrieval of the dummy frac plug.

  • Patent number: 11927064
    Abstract: A system includes a setting tool, which includes a housing, a piston, and an inner mandrel, and a settable device. The housing includes a first section configured as a setting sleeve, an intermediate section, and a second section. The piston includes an interior power charge chamber and a piston housing including at least one passage in fluid communication with the power charge chamber that interfaces with a top face of the intermediate section of the housing. The piston is mounted within a second bore of the second section via an anti-present mechanism. The inner mandrel is received in the second bore within a bottom recess of the piston housing and extends longitudinally through bores of the intermediate and first sections. At least a portion of the system is adjustable to eliminate a gap between the setting sleeve and a top of the settable device mounted on the inner mandrel.

  • Patent number: 11661813
    Abstract: An element includes an elastomer having a temperature rating of at least 400° F. for enhanced geothermal system applications. The elastomer element may be manufactured via an additive manufacturing process, and the elastomer element may be a component of an isolation plug assembly having a plurality of structural components that may also be manufactured via the additive manufacturing process.

  • Patent number: 11248436
    Abstract: A technique facilitates use of a frac diverter instead of a frac plug in a variety of fracturing operations. The frac diverter has a simpler and less expensive construction. Although the frac diverter may not form a seal with the surrounding casing in some applications, the frac diverter is able to sufficiently restrict flow of fracturing fluid to enable a successful fracturing operation. The frac diverter may comprise arrangements of at least one cone, at least one slip ring, and at least one corresponding sub which work in cooperation with a flow restricting element. The flow restricting element may comprise various types of rings, e.g. sealing element rings, able to sufficiently restrict flow of fracturing fluid past the frac diverter.

  • Publication number: 20150144401
    Abstract: A bottom hole assembly includes a drill string, a bit coupled to an end of the drill string, a rotary steerable system coupled to the drill string above the bit, a hydraulically actuated tool assembly coupled to the drill string above the rotary steerable system, and an electrically controlled tool coupled to the drill string above the hydraulically actuated tool assembly and electrically coupled to the rotary steerable system. A method includes running a bottom hole assembly downhole, the bottom hole assembly including a drill bit, a rotary steerable system, an electrically controlled tool, and a hydraulically actuated tool assembly disposed between the rotary steerable system and the electrically controlled tool. The method includes cutting a formation with the drill bit, actuating the hydraulically actuated tool assembly, and maintaining an electrical connection between the rotary steerable system and the electrically controlled tool during the running, the cutting, and the actuating.
