Method For Reducing Diameter Reduction Near Ends Of Expanded Tubulars

US Patent:
7255176, Aug 14, 2007
Filed:
Jun 5, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/455466
Inventors:
Mark K. Adam - Houston TX, US
Robert S. O'Brien - Katy TX, US
Michael A. Carmody - Houston TX, US
Mathew J. Jabs - Houston TX, US
David A. Garcia - Houston TX, US
Assignee:
Baker Hughes Incorporated - Houston TX
International Classification:
E21B 29/00
US Classification:
166380, 166384
Abstract:
A variety of approaches to reducing or eliminating “end effect” or the tendency of tubular ends to reduce in diameter after expansion are disclosed. Some involve pre-bending the ends outwardly while others involve removing material internally or/and externally near the ends. Yet other approaches feature weakening the ends in other ways including penetration of the tubular material using openings of various shapes including slots or/and holes where the openings are between the tube ends or where they can extend on one or both ends all the way to the end of the tubular. Inserts that are softer than the tube material can be placed near the ends. If there is an end effect, then the protruding material can be pushed out of the way or broken off.

One Trip Cemented Expandable Monobore Liner System And Method

US Patent:
7370699, May 13, 2008
Filed:
Feb 7, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/349014
Inventors:
Mark K. Adam - Houston TX, US
Michael A. Carmody - Houston TX, US
Mathew J. Jabs - Houston TX, US
Robert S. O'Brien - Katy TX, US
Dennis G. Jiral - Katy TX, US
Harold E. Payne - Tomball TX, US
Assignee:
Baker Hughes Incorporated - Houston TX
International Classification:
E21B 43/10
US Classification:
166207, 166384
Abstract:
An apparatus to protect the mounting area of casing and a locating profile and optionally a sliding sleeve valve and a flow path from the outside of the valve to the annulus when subsequent attachment of an expanded liner is intended and the expanded liner is to be cemented in place. A barrier sleeve, nose, and outer sleeve define a sealed cavity having a loose incompressible material inside that covers the mounting location on the casing. A locating profile and an optional sliding sleeve valve and a flow path from the outside of the valve to the annulus can be provided. The cementing of the casing takes place through the barrier sleeve. After the cementing, the sleeve and nose are drilled out and the incompressible material is removed to the surface with the drill cuttings. A liner is inserted in the casing and is preferably expanded into sealing contact with the mounting location on the casing. After expansion a cement retainer positioned at the bottom of the expanded liner and the sliding sleeve located either above the mounting location of the liner in the casing shoe or in the liner below the mounted top section allow cement to be delivered outside the expanded liner and the displaced wellbore fluid to return into the casing through so that the liner can be cemented.

US Patent:
7380604, Jun 3, 2008
Filed:
Feb 7, 2006
Appl. No.:

One Trip Cemented Expandable Monobore Liner System And Method

US Patent:
7458422, Dec 2, 2008
Filed:
Feb 7, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/349015
Inventors:
Mark K. Adam - Houston TX, US
Michael A. Carmody - Houston TX, US
Mathew J. Jabs - Houston TX, US
Robert S. O'Brien - Katy TX, US
Dennis G. Jiral - Katy TX, US
Harold E. Payne - Tomball TX, US
Assignee:
Baker Hughes Incorporated - Houston TX
International Classification:
E21B 43/10
E21B 33/13
US Classification:
166290, 166207, 1662428
Abstract:
A liner is inserted in the casing and is preferably expanded into sealing contact with the mounting location on the casing. After expansion a cement retainer positioned at the bottom of the expanded liner and the sliding sleeve located either above the mounting location of the liner in the casing shoe or in the liner below the mounted top section allow cement to be delivered outside the expanded liner and the displaced wellbore fluid to return into the casing through so that the liner can be cemented. The cement retainer can be delivered with either the liner or the expansion tools to allow expansion and cementing in a single trip. A shifting tool can be run on the expansion string to actuate the sliding sleeve and if necessary to allow for cement to be pumped from the drill string into the annulus through the sliding sleeve. The cement retainer can be milled out in a separate trip.

One Trip Well Drilling To Total Depth

US Patent:
7478686, Jan 20, 2009
Filed:
Jun 15, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/153156
Inventors:
Bennett M. Richard - Kingwood TX, US
Alan Brent Emerson - Cypress TX, US
Mathew J. Jabs - Houston TX, US
Mark K. Adam - Houston TX, US
Assignee:
Baker Hughes Incorporated - Houston TX
International Classification:
E21B 7/20
US Classification:
175 57, 175230
Abstract:
Drilling a well to total depth without tripping the bit out of the hole despite encountering a troublesome zone is made possible by using a memory based composite material delivered with the drill pipe or advanced over it, as needed. The material can be activated as a troublesome zone is encountered and assumes as former configuration that places it in sealing relation to the troublesome zone in the bore hole while spacing it from the drill pipe so as to allow resumption of drilling with the troublesome zone isolated.

Locating Recess In A Shoe For Expandable Liner System

US Patent:
7552772, Jun 30, 2009
Filed:
Sep 14, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/521285
Inventors:
Michael A. Carmody - Houston TX, US
Matthew J. Jabs - Houston TX, US
Harold E. Payne - Tomball TX, US
Mark K. Adam - Houston TX, US
Assignee:
Baker Hughes Incorporated - Houston TX
International Classification:
E21B 29/00
US Classification:
166285, 166207, 166380, 166297
Abstract:
An apparatus to protect the mounting area of casing when subsequently attaching a tubular is disclosed. A sleeve that defines a sealed cavity having a loose incompressible material inside covers the mounting location on the casing. The cementing of the casing takes place through the sleeve. After the cementing, the sleeve is drilled out and the incompressible material is removed to the surface with the drill cuttings. A tubular is inserted in the casing and is preferably expanded into sealing contact with the mounting location on the casing. At the end of expansion, the run in shoe on the tubular is retrieved.

Expandable Tubular Connection

US Patent:
7585002, Sep 8, 2009
Filed:
Feb 25, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/065814
Inventors:
Eric J. Curley - Houston TX, US
Mark K. Adam - Houston TX, US
Leopoldo S. Gomez - Humble TX, US
Robert S. O'Brien - Katy TX, US
John L. Baugh - College Station TX, US
Assignee:
Baker Hughes Incorporated - Houston TX
International Classification:
F16L 25/00
US Classification:
285333, 285334, 2853824
Abstract:
An expandable tubular pin and box connection is described having a feature of trapping the pin nose after preferably deforming the pin nose plastically in an outward direction away from the longitudinal axis of the connection. The box end is held away from the pin wall before expansion so that its tendency to curl inwardly upon expansion causes it to bend against the pin wall for sealing with it. The thread profile is also optimized to reduce flank separation as a result of expansion.

Expandable Packer System

US Patent:
7703542, Apr 27, 2010
Filed:
May 30, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/156408
Inventors:
Keven O'Connor - Houston TX, US
Mark K. Adam - Houston TX, US
Jeffrey C. Williams - Cypress TX, US
Assignee:
Baker Hughes Incorporated - Houston TX
International Classification:
E21B 33/12
E21B 17/00
E21B 19/16
US Classification:
166387, 166380, 1662421, 166207
Abstract:
The expandable casing packing element systems for cased and open-hole wellbores include an expandable casing member having a sealing device comprising a sealing element disposed between at least two retainer rings. The retainer rings have flat cross-sections and the sealing element is forced radially outward by the expansion of the expandable casing against the two retainer rings such that the sealing element protrudes outwardly beyond the retainer rings and engages the wall of a wellbore in three locations. The retainer rings can also include flares that extend outwardly from the body of the expandable casing to which they are attached. As the expandable casing is expanded, the flares are forced inward to compress the sealing element which is then extruded radially outward through a gap between the two retainer rings to engage and seal off the wellbore.
