  • Method and apparatus to selectively reduce wellbore pressure during pumping operations
    Patent number: 7128160
    Abstract: A downhole tool has at least one diverter valve. The at least one diverter valve is used to reduce pressure in a wellbore caused by frictional resistance to fluid flow during a gravel pack operation. The increased pressure tends to be created as the beta wave of the gravel pack operation makes its way up the wellbore.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 21, 2003
    Date of Patent: October 31, 2006
    Assignee: Schlumberger Technology Corporation
    Inventors: Steven L. Anyan, Stephane J. Virally, Olukemi Ibironke Aardalsbakke
