The present disclosure relates generally to wellbore tools and, more particularly (although not necessarily exclusively), to a retrievable downhole tool that can be remotely operable and that includes a setting module.
A wellbore can be formed in a subterranean formation for extracting produced hydrocarbon material and other suitable material. Various wellbore operations can be performed with respect to the wellbore. For example, the wellbore operations can include drilling (e.g., forming the wellbore), stimulation (e.g., hydraulic fracturing or other similar stimulation operation), production, and other suitable wellbore operations. In some examples, the wellbore operations can involve using one or more tools downhole in the wellbore. The tools can include, for example, packers or other suitable downhole tools. Before using the tools downhole, the tools may need to be set or otherwise set up in the wellbore. Other retrievable downhole tools may be set in the wellbore using ineffective or damaging techniques. For example, the other retrievable downhole tools may include drag blocks that may damage a casing or wall of the wellbore. It may be difficult to control a setting process with respect to the other retrievable downhole tools. Additionally, it may be difficult to cause the other retrievable downhole tools to set or to be unset.
Certain aspects and examples of the present disclosure relate to a remotely operable retrievable downhole tool that includes a setting module. The retrievable downhole tool can be positioned in a wellbore and can be set for performing one or more wellbore operations. The retrievable downhole tool can include a retrievable service packer, a bridge plug, or other suitable retrievable downhole tools for performing wellbore operations. The setting module can include a motor, a sensor, and an electronic control device. Additionally, the setting module can include a piston, a pump, a gearbox, a spring, one or more mechanical slips, and other suitable components for the setting module. The sensor can include a pressure transducer, a flow sensor, or other suitable sensor, and can receive a triggering pressure sequence. The electronic control device can include a printed circuit board, or other suitable electronic control device, and can cause the motor to engage and to cause the mechanical slips of the retrievable downhole tool to actuate. The motor can use the pump, the gearbox, and other suitable component of the setting module to actuate the mechanical slips by displacing fluid in the piston. Actuating the mechanical slips of the remotely operable retrievable downhole tool can involve moving the mechanical slips outward to apply a pre-setting force on a wall or casing of the wellbore. In response to actuating the mechanical slips, a setting force can be applied to the retrievable downhole tool from the surface to set the retrievable downhole tool. The setting force can be removed from the retrievable downhole tool to unset the retrievable downhole tool for repositioning, removal, or other suitable operations with respect to the retrievable downhole tool.
Some compression set retrievable tools can use one or more drag blocks and a J-slot mechanism to perform setting operations, unsetting operations, or a combination thereof. Providing adequate drag force in a variety of fluid conditions to enable repeatable setting and unsetting operations to occur using the drag blocks may be ineffective or may otherwise cause damage to a wellbore. In some examples, more force may be used to reliably set bi-directional slips than drag blocks can provide, so a system that can include a set of mechanical slips can be run on the retrievable tool to aid in the setting process. This technique may be successful but also may be expensive or difficult due to the mechanical slip components. Additionally, damage can occur with respect to the inner diameter of the wellbore casing via the drag blocks, which may be pushed radially into the inner diameter of the wellbore casing with a stack of leaf springs under each drag block. The drag blocks may drag along the inner diameter of the target casing of the wellbore until a setting location of the tool is reached.
Using a setting module in a retrievable downhole tool may improve setting performance over other compression set retrievable tools. The setting module can be self-contained and can recognize a predetermined pressure signature created by intentionally fluctuating flowrates across the retrievable downhole tool to activate an internal pump. The operation sequence to set a retrievable tool can include circulating fluid for a few minutes once the retrievable downhole tool is at a setting location to clean debris from the setting location. The circulation can be performed in a one or more orders by stepping flowrates of the fluid at specified, or otherwise predetermined, time intervals to create the predetermined pressure signature. Once the predetermined pressure signature is recognized, the internal pump can drive a piston that can pre-set mechanical slips of the retrievable downhole tool into the inner diameter of the wellbore casing. The retrievable downhole tool can be fully set by slacking off set down weight from above the retrievable downhole tool or hang weight below the retrievable downhole tool. In some examples, the retrievable downhole tool can be set by applying a setting force from the surface of the wellbore. The retrievable downhole tool can be retrieved by removing the weight, or the applied force, and, in response to removing the weight or the applied force, the retrievable downhole tool may reset to an original, or unset, position. In some examples, using the setting module may allow the retrievable downhole tool to function without drag blocks or without additional external equipment for transmitting signals (e.g., wires, control lines, repeaters, etc.).
The remotely operable retrievable downhole tool can aid or allow operation of setting tandem bridge plugs since the remotely operable retrievable downhole tool may not include J-slots. Additionally, the remotely operable retrievable downhole tool can prevent an accidental set of the tandem bridge plugs, which can cause safety or economic concerns. The remotely operable retrievable downhole tool may not include drag blocks and, accordingly, may mitigate or otherwise eliminate damage to the casing of the wellbore during setting or unsetting operations. Additionally, when used in some applications (e.g., bridge plug applications, etc.), the remotely operable retrievable downhole tool can reduce cost associated with a mechanical slip sub-system associated with the remotely operable retrievable downhole tool.
Mechanical slips of the retrievable downhole tool can be kept in a run-in-hole (RIH) position by a piston biased in one direction by a spring. The retrievable downhole tool can include an onboard pressure transducer that can detect minor pressure fluctuations as fluid is circulated around the retrievable downhole tool. The retrievable downhole tool can restrict flow once the fluid is inside the target casing inner diameter. The fluctuations can be monitored and, when a triggering pressure sequence is detected, a signal can be processed by an electronic control device (e.g., a printed circuit board or other suitable electronic control device) and can be transmitted to a motor to drive an internal pump that can displace fluid inside the retrievable downhole tool to drive the piston upwards towards the mechanical slips. The electronic components can be powered by one or more batteries, or other suitable power sources, positioned on the retrievable downhole tool. The internal fluid can be pressure-compensated by a balance piston. A first amount of force can be generated by the piston to obtain a second, relatively small, force applied by the mechanical slips on the casing of the wellbore. The second force can provide enough resistance that a third force can be mechanically applied by slacking off weight at surface to fully set the retrievable downhole tool. When retrieval or repositioning of the retrievable downhole tool is desired, the weight can be picked up, or otherwise removed, to unset the retrievable downhole tool. Once the mechanical slips are released from the casing of the wellbore, the spring can return the mechanical slips to the RIH position by pushing the piston back to an original position of the piston. The retrievable downhole tool can be set and unset repeatedly by performing the above techniques.
The above illustrative examples are given to introduce the reader to the general subject matter discussed herein and are not intended to limit the scope of the disclosed concepts. The following sections describe various additional features and examples with reference to the drawings in which like numerals indicate like elements, and directional descriptions are used to describe the illustrative aspects, but, like the illustrative aspects, should not be used to limit the present disclosure.
At a setting, or otherwise desired, depth, the remotely operable retrievable downhole tool 102 can be subjected to a series of pressure signals generated by varying fluid flowrates. The fluid can be flowed downhole, for example from the surface 101 of the wellbore 100, at one or more flowrates and through the remotely operable retrievable downhole tool 102 such that the sensor of the setting module 104 can detect minor differences in pressure or flowrate of the fluid. In some examples, the setting module 104 can detect the pressure or flowrate of the fluid in an inner diameter of the setting module 104. Circulating the fluid can include cleaning debris from the retrievable downhole tool 102, from the setting depth, or a combination thereof. The pressure or flowrate signals can include a triggering pressure sequence. The triggering pressure sequence can include a predetermined sequence of pressures or flowrates that indicate a request to commence a setting process. In response to receiving the triggering pressure sequence, the setting module 104 can cause mechanical slips 106a-b to move into a pre-set position, which may involve the mechanical slips 106 partially actuating. The mechanical slips 106a-b may contact a casing 108 or a wall 110 of the wellbore 100 upon partially actuating, but if the mechanical slips 106a-b partially actuate and contact the casing 108 or the wall 110 of the wellbore 100, the mechanical slips 106a-b may not apply a setting force on the casing 108 or the wall 110.
Once the mechanical slips 106 are in the pre-set position, a setting weight or force can be applied to the remotely operable retrievable downhole tool 102, which can cause the retrievable downhole tool 102 to be moved or otherwise adjusted into a set configuration in the wellbore 100. The setting weight or force can be applied from the surface 101 of the wellbore 100. Additionally or alternatively, the setting weight or force can be applied by slacking off hang weight below the remotely operable retrievable downhole tool 102. The set configuration can involve further actuating the mechanical slips 106a-b such that the mechanical slips 106a-b apply a setting force on a casing 108 or wall 110 of the wellbore 100. The remotely operable retrievable downhole tool 102 can be retrieved by removing the setting weight or force, and removing the setting weight or force can cause the mechanical slips 106a-b to be returned to a run-in-hole (RIH) configuration, which may involve the mechanical slips 106a-b retracting from the casing 108 or from the wall 110, for repositioning or removing the retrievable downhole tool 102 with respect to the wellbore 100.
Fluid can be flowed with respect to the remotely operable retrievable downhole tool 102. In one such example, fluid can be flowed into the wellbore 100 from the surface 101 of the wellbore 100 and into an interior region 212 of the retrievable downhole tool 102. Additionally, other fluid (e.g., mud, etc.) can be flowed around or across the exterior surface 206 of the retrievable downhole tool 102. The fluid can be flowed in other suitable locations for communicating pressure or flowrate signal sequences. The setting module 104 can detect pressure associated with the fluid. For example, the setting module 104 can detect the fluid pressure of fluid flowing in the interior region 212, flowing across the exterior surface 206, or a combination thereof. In cases in which fluid is flowing both in the interior region 212 and across the exterior surface 206, the setting module 104 can detect a differential pressure between the interior region 212 and the exterior surface 206.
In an RIH configuration, the spring 308 may prevent the mechanical slip assembly 202 from accidentally or prematurely actuating, which may cause damage in the wellbore 100. Once the remotely operable retrievable downhole tool 102 is positioned in the wellbore 100 at a setting location, the electrical assembly 306, which can include a sensor such as a pressure transducer or flowrate sensor, can receive the triggering pressure sequence. Prior to receiving the triggering pressure sequence, the electrical assembly 306 may receive other sequences of pressure signals, which may correspond to fluid flowing through or around the retrievable downhole tool 102 to clean the setting location or for other suitable purposes. In response to receiving the triggering pressure sequence, the electrical assembly 306 may cause the pump assembly 304 to interact with the piston 302. For example, the pump assembly 304 can displace fluid in the piston 302 to cause the mechanical slip assembly 202 to actuate. The mechanical slip assembly 202 actuating can involve the slip guide 301 moving to actuate the mechanical slips 106. For example, the mechanical slips 106 may move outward into a pre-set configuration. The mechanical slip 106 may contact the casing 108 or the wall 110 of the wellbore 100, but any force applied by the mechanical slip 106 in the pre-set configuration may not be enough force to set the retrievable downhole tool 102 or to otherwise cause the retrievable downhole tool 102 to move into a set configuration. Additionally, by actuating, the mechanical slip assembly 202 may cause the spring 308 to compress.
Once the mechanical slips 106 are in the pre-set configuration, the setting force can be applied to the remotely operable retrievable downhole tool 102. The setting force can be applied from the surface 101 and can cause the retrievable downhole tool 102 to move into the setting configuration. The setting configuration can involve the mechanical slips 106 applying a force on the casing 108 or the wall 110 of the wellbore 100. Additionally, once in the setting configuration, the retrievable downhole tool 102 can be used to perform, or can allow performance of, one or more wellbore operations. The setting force can be removed, which can cause the mechanical slips 106 to retract from the casing 108 or the wall 110, and the spring 308 can apply a spring force for returning the retrievable downhole tool 102 to the RIH configuration.
The pump assembly 304 can include a motor 406, a gearbox 408, and a pump 410. The motor 406 can be communicatively coupled to electrical portions (e.g., the electrical assembly 306, a sensor, an electronic control device, etc.) of the retrievable downhole tool 102. The gearbox 408 can be positioned between, and adjacent to, the motor 406 and the pump 410. The pump 410 can be positioned between the piston 302 and the gearbox 408. The motor 406 can control the gearbox 408 and the pump 410, which can apply pressure or force (e.g., hydraulic force, etc.) with respect to the piston 302. For example, the motor 406 can receive a signal from the electrical portions to displace fluid in the piston 302, and in response to receiving the signal, the motor 406 can engage the gearbox and control the pump 410 to displace the fluid. The motor 406 may run for a predetermined amount of time. For example, in response to receiving the signal, the motor 406 may run for the predetermined amount of time for allowing the setting force to be applied to the retrievable downhole tool 102. Once the predetermined amount of time expires, the motor 406 may shut off, to allow removal of the setting force and repositioning or retrieval of the retrievable downhole tool 102, until receiving an additional signal.
The electronic control device 502 can be positioned in any suitable location with respect to the remotely operable retrievable downhole tool 102 (e.g., the exterior surface 206, an interior surface, in between the exterior surface 206 and the interior surface, etc.). The electronic control device 502 can be communicatively coupled to the sensor 501, the pump assembly 304, other suitable components, or a combination thereof. The power source 504 can include batteries or other suitable portable sources of power. In some examples, the power source 504 can include, or can be coupled to, wired power sources such as electrical cables from the surface 101 of the wellbore 100, etc. The power source 504 can be electrically, or otherwise suitably, coupled to the sensor 501, the electronic control device 502, the pump assembly 304, other suitable components of the retrievable downhole tool 102, or a combination thereof. The power source 504 can provide electricity or other suitable power to the components of the retrievable downhole tool 102.
The sensor 501 can communicate with the electronic control device 502. For example, the sensor 501 can continuously monitor or otherwise detect sequences of pressure or flowrate in the retrievable downhole tool 102 and can transmit the detected sequences of pressure or flowrate to the electronic control device 502. The sequences of pressure or flowrate can include a triggering pressure or flowrate sequence, which can be caused by a change in fluid flow rate. In response to receiving the triggering pressure sequence, the electronic control device 502 can generate a control signal or command. The triggering pressure sequence can cause the sensor 501 to transmit a predetermined signal or sequence of signals that can cause the electronic control device 502 to generate the command. The electronic control device 502 can transmit the control signal command to the pump assembly 304, and the command can cause the pump assembly 304 to displace fluid in the piston 302 for actuating the mechanical slip assembly 202 into the pre-set configuration. The control signal or command can cause the pump assembly 304 to run for a predetermined amount of time, and, subsequent to the predetermined amount of time, the pump assembly 304 may shut off until receiving an additional control signal or command.
In some examples, more than one remotely operable retrievable downhole tool 102 can be positioned in the wellbore 100. In these examples, the retrievable downhole tools 102 can be positioned on a common workstring and can each include a setting module 104. The setting module 104 can allow the retrievable downhole tools 102 to be set individually. For example, a first retrievable downhole tool can receive a first triggering pressure sequence that causes the first retrievable downhole tool to be set while leaving a second retrievable downhole tool in a RIH configuration. Accordingly, the setting module 104 can prevent accidental setting of retrievable downhole tools 102 positioned on the common workstring.
At block 604, the retrievable downhole tool 102 pre-sets the mechanical slip assembly 202 using the triggering pressure sequence. In response to receiving the control signal or command, the motor 406 can control the pump 410 for actuating the mechanical slip assembly 202. For example, the pump 410 can displace fluid in the piston 302, which can cause the slip guide 301 to displace and actuate the mechanical slips 106 outward. In some examples, the pump 410 can apply hydraulic force on the piston 302, the mechanical slip assembly 202, other suitable components of the retrievable downhole tool 102, or a combination thereof, for actuating the mechanical slip assembly 202. The pump 410 can cause the mechanical slip assembly 202 to move into a pre-set configuration. The pre-set configuration can involve partially actuating the mechanical slip assembly 202 such that the mechanical slips 106 contact the casing 108 or the wall 110 of the wellbore 100 but may not apply a large enough force to set the retrievable downhole tool 102.
At block 606, the retrievable downhole tool 102 actuates the mechanical slip assembly 202 to perform a setting operation. The setting operation can involve moving or otherwise adjusting the remotely operable retrievable downhole tool 102 into a set configuration. The set configuration can include the mechanical slips 106 actuated and applying a setting force on the casing 108 or the wall 110 of the wellbore 100. The retrievable downhole tool 102 can receive a setting weight from the surface 101 or from other suitable sources for the setting weight. The retrievable downhole tool 102 can use the setting weight to actuate the mechanical slips 106. For example, the retrievable downhole tool 102 can apply the setting weight to the slip guide 301 of the mechanical slip assembly 202 to cause the mechanical slips 106 to actuate outward for applying the setting force on the casing 108 or the wall 110 of the wellbore 100. In response to receiving the setting weight and actuating the mechanical slip assembly 202, the retrievable downhole tool 102 can be used to perform one or more wellbore operations.
At block 608, the retrievable downhole tool 102 retracts the mechanical slip assembly 202 for performing an unsetting operation. In response to completing or otherwise halting the wellbore operations, the retrievable downhole tool 102 can retract the mechanical slip assembly 202. By retracting the mechanical slip assembly 202, the retrievable downhole tool 102 may return the mechanical slip assembly 202 to a RIH configuration in which the mechanical slip assembly 202 is not actuated. In some examples, the retrievable downhole tool 102 may retract the mechanical slip assembly 202 in response to the setting weight being removed from the retrievable downhole tool 102. For example, an operator at the surface 101 can remove the setting weight from the retrievable downhole tool 102, and removing the setting weight can cause the spring 308 to apply a spring force on the piston 302, the mechanical slip assembly 202, other suitable components of the retrievable downhole tool 102, or a combination thereof. By applying the spring force, the spring 308 can return the mechanical slip assembly 202 to the RIH configuration. The retrievable downhole tool 102 can repeatedly perform setting and unsetting operations in the wellbore 100 via the process 600.
