Patent number: 12060758Abstract: One or more geometric dimensions of a portion of a washout section of a wellbore are determined. A retrievable tubular sleeve is run downhole through the casing string, such that a key profile disposed on an outer surface of the retrievable tubular sleeve connects with a landing nipple disposed on an inner surface of the casing string. The retrievable tubular sleeve is dimensioned such that, when the key profile is connected with the landing nipple, a portion of the retrievable tubular sleeve extends downhole from the downhole end of the casing string and within the portion of the washout section for which the one or more geometric dimensions have been determined, and an intervention or measurement tool can be run through the retrievable tubular sleeve through across the washout section.Type: GrantFiled: September 7, 2022Date of Patent: August 13, 2024Assignee: Saudi Arabian Oil CompanyInventors: AbdulHameed E.

Patent number: 11814913Abstract: A choke valve is coupled to a Christmas tree on a wellhead. A smart module is coupled to the choke valve. A hydraulic control is coupled to the smart module and the choke valve. The hydraulic control unit hydraulically actuates the choke valve. A first sensor is attached upstream of the choke valve and a second sensor is attached downstream of the choke valve. The first sensor measures an upstream pressure and the second sensor measures a downstream pressure. A controller is coupled to the smart module and the hydraulic control unit. The smart module receives the upstream pressure, the downstream pressure, and well data to generate commands to adjust a choke size of the choke valve corresponding with a required production rate of a well. The controller manages a transmission of hydraulic pressure from the hydraulic control unit to actuate the choke valve based on the generated commands.Type: GrantFiled: October 21, 2021Date of Patent: November 14, 2023Assignee: SAUDI ARABIAN OIL COMPANYInventors: Ahmed A. Ghanmi, Fahmi Aulia

Publication number: 20230243223Abstract: A well tool assembly to cut a wellhead gate valve by water jetting includes a water jetting head lowered into a wellhead tree coupled to a wellbore. The head includes a housing, an orifice plate and a jetting port. The housing defines a tubular region to receive water. The orifice plate is positioned within the tubular region downstream of a first end and upstream of a second end of the housing, and defines an orifice to accelerate a flow rate of the water received at a first flow rate upstream of the orifice plate to a second flow rate, greater than the first, downstream of the plate. At the second flow rate, the water can mill a gate valve within the wellhead. The jetting port is downstream of the orifice plate, and can receive the water at the second flow rate and guide the received water to the gate valve.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 31, 2022Publication date: August 3, 2023Inventors: Amro Mukhles, Fahmi Aulia

A second well, configured to act as a production well or an injection well, is formed. The second well includes a second horizontal portion substantially parallel to the first horizontal portion. The first horizontal portion and the second horizontal portion are at different depths. A fluid is injected into a geologic formation through the first well for a first duration of time. Hydrocarbons are produced from the geologic formation through the second well for the first duration of time. A fluid is injected into a geologic formation through the second well for a second duration of time. Hydrocarbons are produced from the geologic formation through the first well for the second duration of time.Type: GrantFiled: August 10, 2020Date of Patent: July 11, 2023Assignee: Saudi Arabian Oil CompanyInventors: AbdulAziz Salah AlKhateeb, Amar Jaber M.
