Abstract: The disclosure relates to systems and methods to deploy a chemical inhibitor (e.g., a scale inhibitor, a corrosion inhibitor, a biocide, a wax control substance, an asphaltene control substance) in an oil well.

Abstract: A method includes monitoring fluid production at a passive ICD installed in a base pipe in a wellbore. Responsive to monitored fluid production meeting one or more predetermined criteria, a remedial sleeve component is installed for the passive ICD. The remedial sleeve component includes: one or more ports which permit throughput of fluid into the base pipe; a closing portion which selectively opens and closes the one or more ports; and one or more sealing portions, which prevent a flow of fluid into the base pipe when the one or more ports are closed. The one or more ports are selectively opened or closed responsive to one or more additional predetermined criteria. A related system includes an actuation tool which deploys into the wellbore to actuate the closing portion to selectively open and close the one or more ports.

Abstract: A system for acquiring data in a well may have a tubing placed therein. The system may include a pass-through device. The pass-through device may include a cylindrical housing having a central aperture extending through the cylindrical housing along a central axis thereof. The pass-through device may include a first sensor mounted on the cylindrical housing. The pass-through device may include a first communication device mounted on the cylindrical housing and operatively connected to the first sensor. The system may include a tubing mounting structure secured to the tubing and configured to hold the pass-through device at a desired location within the tubing. The system may include a control device. The control device may include a second communication device configured to communicate with the first communication device. The control device includes a processor operatively connected to the second communication device.

Abstract: According to one or more embodiments, a steer by wire steering system includes a handwheel, and a handwheel actuator configured to secure a position of the handwheel. The securing includes determining a transition of the steer by wire steering system to an ingress/egress mode. The securing further includes, based on the determination that the steer by wire steering system is in the ingress/egress mode, computing a holding torque command based on a difference in a present angle of the handwheel and a target angle of the handwheel, which is caused by an input torque. Further, the securing includes generating a holding torque corresponding to the holding torque command to secure the position of the handwheel.
