  • MODELING A KARST FORMATION FOR A WELLBORE OPERATION
    Publication number: 20230259662
    Abstract: A system can model a karst formation for controlling a wellbore operation. The system can receive first input data that includes a set of fracture properties in a fracture network of a subterranean formation. The system can receive second input data that includes a set of point sets from a fracture geometry of the fracture network. The system can generate a set of fracture skeletons from the first input data and the second input data. The system can model a karst feature based on the plurality of fracture skeletons. The system can output the karst feature for controlling a wellbore operation.

  • Adapter for oil well tubings
    Patent number: 5819847
    Abstract: An adaptor for oil well tubings interconnects two tubings in the interior of an oil well. Two types of adapters are provided, one for use when the two tubings are not installed at the same time and the other for use when the tubings are installed simultaneously. The first type has in its interior two bores to connect to the two tubings. The top end of the first bore in threaded to permit its connection to one of the tubings. The second bore has a diameter larger than that of the first to permit the insertion into its interior of the second tubing. The second type of adapter has in its interior two threaded bores to interconnect the two tubings. In both types of oil well tubing adapters, the bottom portion of the adapter has a 180.degree. bend segment which permits communication between the two orifices, thus making intercommunication between the tubings possible.
