Publication number: 20230220733Abstract: A cutting tool includes a body configured to rotate about a longitudinal axis, a blade connected to the body, and a pre-formed segment. The blade extends away from the body and includes a recess formed in a leading face of the blade. The pre-formed segment is disposed in the recess adjacent to the leading face of the blade. The pre-formed segment is connected to the blade. The pre-formed segment includes a cutter pocket therein, the cutter pocket having a sidewall and a base.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 27, 2023Publication date: July 13, 2023Inventors: Youhe Zhang, Huimin Song, Jan Stefan Morley

Patent number: 11591857Abstract: A downhole tool includes a blade coupled to a body. The body and blade rotate about a longitudinal axis. A pre-formed faceplate is connected to the blade and partially defines a cutter pocket therein. Another portion of the cutter pocket is defined by the blade. The cutter pocket includes a sidewall and a base, with the sidewall formed by the blade and the pre-formed faceplate, and the base formed by the blade. The pre-formed faceplate includes a pre-formed hardfacing element. A downhole tool includes a blade coupled to a body. The body and blade rotate about a longitudinal axis. A pre-formed segment is connected to the blade and has a cutter pocket therein. The cutter pocket includes a sidewall and a base, and a cutting element is coupled to the pre-formed segment and within the cutter pocket. The pre-formed segment is optionally made of a different material than the blade and has increased wear and/or erosion resistance compared to the blade.Type: GrantFiled: May 22, 2018Date of Patent: February 28, 2023Assignee: SCHLUMBERGER TECHNOLOGY CORPORATIONInventors: Youhe Zhang, Huimin Song, Jan Stefan Morley

Patent number: 10113414Abstract: Methods for drilling a second well in a spatial relationship to a first well include positioning a magnetic field source in a first well or borehole and deploying at least two magnetometers in a second well or borehole. The magnetometers are separated by a known distance and each measure the magnetic field created by the magnetic field source that is located in the first borehole. The magnetic field measurements are used to calculate the locations of the two magnetometers with respect to the magnetic field source. The two locations define the axis of the second borehole with respect to the magnetic field source in the first borehole.Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 2009Date of Patent: October 30, 2018Assignee: SCHLUMBERGER TECHNOLOGY CORPORATIONInventors: Brian Clark, Jan Stefan Morley

Patent number: 9260943Abstract: A technique facilitates evaluation of a tool, such as a drill tool. The technique comprises collecting tool data via a sensor on a given tool during use of that tool in a given operation, e.g. drilling operation. Additional data related to the tool is accumulated from a plurality of sources external to the tool. For example, data may be collected from both downhole sources and surface sources. Upon completion of the operation, the tool data is transmitted to the surface for processing on a processor system in combination with the data cumulated from sources external to the tool. The processing may be performed in real time as the tool data is received from downhole to enable a comprehensive diagnosis of tool health prior to retrieval of the tool to the surface.Type: GrantFiled: October 23, 2013Date of Patent: February 16, 2016Assignee: Schlumberger Technology CorporationInventors: Staffan Kari Eriksson, Jan Stefan Morley, Eimund Liland

Patent number: 8225868Abstract: An interchangeable sleeve for a downhole tool includes a substantially cylindrical body configured to circumferentially engage the downhole tool, a blade extending radially from the body, and a transducer disposed within the blade. A drilling assembly includes a drill collar, an interchangeable blade configured to couple to the drill collar, and a transducer disposed within the blade. A size of the blade and a size of the transducer are selected based on a diameter of a borehole in which the downhole tool is to be used. A method of manufacturing an interchangeable sleeve for a downhole tool includes forming a blade on a body of the sleeve such that the blade extends radially from the body, disposing a transducer within the blade, and configuring the sleeve to circumferentially engage the downhole tool.Type: GrantFiled: December 11, 2008Date of Patent: July 24, 2012Assignee: Schlumberger Technology CorporationInventors: Jan Stefan Morley, Alain Dumont
