Abstract: A frac and gravel packing system including a tubular having a longitudinal axis, a wall defining an interior flowbore, a radial frac port and a radial production port extending through the wall in a first zone of an annular region surrounding the tubular; a screen surrounding the production port, the frac port not covered by the screen; a sleeve system including a sleeve longitudinally shiftable with respect to the longitudinal axis of the tubular, the sleeve configured to cover the frac port in a first position of the sleeve and uncover the frac port in a second position of the sleeve; and, a return path arranged to permit return fluid from a fracturing operation to exit the first zone of the annular region, wherein the return fluid passes through the screen prior to accessing the return path.

Abstract: An anchor including a tubular body having a longitudinal axis, a number of wedges defined in the tubular body, the wedges having edges defined by surfaces at least one of the edges at a point along that edge having a first angle and at the same or another point along that edge having a second angle.

Abstract: A linear selective profile actuation system including a traveling actuation member having a selective profile, the selective profile being resilient or rigid and possessed of a shoulder, a resource recovery tool having a tool profile, the tool profile being resilient or rigid, providing at least one of the selective profile or the tool profile is resilient, the tool profile being possessed of a seat, the tool profile and selective profile being configured to engage the shoulder and seat without resilient action from either the tool profile or selective profile if the selective profile is complementary to the tool profile or to resiliently pass the traveling actuation member if the selective profile is not complementary to the tool profile. A method for actuating a resource recovery tool. A resource recovery system including a borehole, a tubular string in the borehole, a resource recovery tool having a tool profile.

Abstract: A downhole system including a valve including a housing having a longitudinal axis, a flowbore within the housing for fluid flow along the longitudinal axis, an annulus within the housing, the annulus concentrically surrounding the flowbore and fluidically separated from the flowbore, a piston arrangement within the housing, the piston arrangement including a piston movable from a first position to a second position, and an electronic trigger system including an electronic trigger, a first fluid chamber, and a second fluid chamber. Activation of the electronic trigger communicates the first fluid chamber with the second fluid chamber to move the piston from the first position corresponding to a closed condition of the valve blocking flow within the annulus to the second position corresponding to an open condition of the valve permitting flow within the annulus past the piston.

Abstract: A lower completion for open or cased hole is delivered on a work string. Electric power extends from a remote location past a production packer and to an array of electrically operated sleeves alternating with packers. An inductive coupling or wet connect allows the work string to release from the production packer and a production string tagged into the production packer for continued operation of the sliding sleeves. In the event of an incipient screenout a different sliding sleeve can be opened quickly or a sliding sleeve near hole bottom can be opened to maintain flow. The sliding sleeves can be directly or indirectly operated with electric power from a surface or wellhead location that is above the production packer. A wet connect or inductive coupler allows removal of the work string and replacement with a production string for continuing functionality of the sliding sleeves.

Abstract: Screen sections have opposed open ends near the threaded connection of a base pipe and on opposed ends. The base pipes have premium threads for connection. A shroud is placed over the premium bases pipe connection that spans from one open ended screen section to another that is adjacent. Collectively a long annular space is created under the screens and alternating shrouds with access to within the base pipes provided preferably at opposed ends. The valve on one end takes returns during gravel packing and the other takes production to the surface.

Abstract: A downhole component includes a body and a stress riser formed in the body. The stress riser being positioned and shaped to promote a full fracture of the body while maintaining a structure of the body to bear force in at least one direction. A downhole system having a tubular string disposed in a borehole.

Abstract: A zone isolation system comprising an isolation flow path arranged radially outwardly with respect to an internal bore of a production tubing. An isolation valve assembly is arranged in the isolation flow path. The isolation flow path is fluidly connected to a screen flow path defined by the annular space between a filtering assembly and a basepipe. The isolation flow path may traverse one or more zones and can extend to the wellhead, connecting to an isolation pump. The basepipe may further comprise an inflow control device such as a sliding sleeve.
