  • Patent number: 7249633
    Abstract: A bottom hole assembly for use with fracturing or fracing a wellbore using coiled tubing is described having a first packing element and a second packing element on a mandrel. The bottom hole assembly may be run into the wellbore such that the packing elements straddle the zone to be fraced. Also described is a timing mechanism to prevent the closing of dump ports before the bottom hole assembly may be flushed of the sand. A release tool is described that allows an operator to apply combination of force for a given amount of time to the coiled tubing to dislodge a bottom hole assembly without completely releasing the bottom hole assembly. Also disclosed is a collar locator capable of being utilized in a fracing process. Methods of using the above-described components are also disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20070151735
    Abstract: An improved concentric coiled tubing annular fracturing string is disclosed having at least two fluid flow paths. An umbilical tube located inside of a coiled tubing string may provide one of the pathways, which may be used to isolate downhole elements, such as a packer, from harmful fluids. The annulus between the umbilical tube and the outer coiled tubing may provide the second flow pathway. The umbilical tube may contain an electric line, which may provide an electrical connection to a bottom hole assembly (“BHA”). The improved system may also provide for the measurement of down hole fracturing fluid pressure or be used to deliver a cross-linking agent to a specified portion of a well. The BHA may include an emergency packer deflation device to rapidly deflate a packer in the event the packer loses its ability to anchor against the casing.
