Patent number: 10590735Abstract: A filter device housed within a body component. The filter device can include an outer filter and an inner filter positioned coaxially within the outer filter. The outer and inner filters may be composed of a material having mesh, slots, holes, or any other openings being of a sufficient size and shape to restrict passage of items of a predetermined size or larger. Formed between the inner and outer filters is a first annular space into which fluid that is provided down the drill string may enter. The filter device may also include a valve within the internal bore which regulates passage of wellbore fluid provided to the drill string, or for a wireline or slickline, to pass through the filter device in order to access other components of the drill string downhole from the filter device.Type: GrantFiled: April 13, 2016Date of Patent: March 17, 2020Assignee: M-I Drilling Fluids UK Ltd.Inventors: James Linklater, Jonathan Buckland

Patent number: 9458696Abstract: A valve assembly comprising a body having a main passage, and a valve member which is located in the main passage and which is rotatable between an open position in which the main passage is substantially open, and a closed position in which the valve member substantially blocks the main passage, and an actuator which is movable generally parallel to the longitudinal axis of the main passage, the actuator being engaged with the valve member such that movement of the actuator generally parallel to the longitudinal axis of the main passage causes the valve member to rotate between its open and closed positions.Type: GrantFiled: February 12, 2014Date of Patent: October 4, 2016Assignee: MANAGED PRESSURE OPERATIONS PTE. LTD.Inventors: James Bisset, Rae Younger, Jonathan Buckland, Baptiste Gougeon, Stuart Rothnie, Christian Leuchtenberg
