Abstract
A liner hanger is initially set to the surrounding tubular. A standard bottom up cement job through a shoe at the liner bottom can be performed. If that job does not test satisfactory then the running tool can be unlatched at the packoff and raised beyond the liner hanger extension tubular so that a tack and squeeze job can be accomplished pumping the cement top down through the gaps in the liner anchor. The running tool can be re-latched to the liner hanger extension tube that is still unexpanded. Once re-locked into a groove in the extension the running tool for the liner hanger can be operated to set the seal and release the running tool from the groove in the extension to pull out of the hole. The liner hanger anchor and seal can be expanded into the set position by the running tool.
Description
- The field of the invention is hanging and cementing liners and more particularly a setting tool latch that can release and re-latch to allow one trip functionality to perform a tack and squeeze job with a standard bottom up cement job and setting the liner hanger seal thereafter.
- Liner hanging and cementing typically involves putting a liner and a liner hanger in position in a borehole with a running string. The anchor portion of the liner hanger is set either by applied pressure on a dropped ball or by expansion of a slip cage with a swage driven by a combination anchor and telescoping member that moves the swage. When the slips are set and the liner is supported from the surrounding tubular, the cement can be pumped though the liner to the lower end where there is a cement shoe. The cement goes through the cement shoe and into the annular space while displacing well fluid ahead of the cement. The well fluid is displaced by the cement through the open spaces between the set anchor in the liner hanger. After the cement is placed the anchor and stroker for the swage in the running tool is engaged to expand the seal in the liner hanger. Alternatively the seal of the liner hanger can be set with internal pressure on a piston assembly, usually done after another ball is landed on the seat inside the liner hanger or another method such as a flapper to create an internal pressure on piston assembly. After the liner hanger seal is set the lock for the running tool into the liner is released and the running tool is removed.
- In some unconsolidated formation the traditional bottom up cementing through a shoe may create an unsatisfactory cement job as large voids may concentrate the cement in a single area as opposed to sealing the liner along it length as envisioned. In the past the next step would be to pull out the running tool and run in again with an assembly to set the seal after delivery of cement above the liner hanger and through the gaps in the anchor portion of the liner hanger. Thereafter the hanger seal would need to be set. The extra trip to do a tack and squeeze job was necessitated by the limitations of the existing equipment designed to release the running tool for the liner hanger only after the liner hanger seal was set. In order to do a tack and squeeze job with the known expandable liner hanger such as TORX® available from Baker Hughes Incorporated of Houston, Tex. USA the liner hanger would need to be retagged after release and raising above from an extension pipe associated with the liner hanger that is not expanded. This meant that the locking dogs would need to release to allow the running tool to be raised to do the tack and squeeze job and then the running tool dogs would need to enter an unexpanded portion of the extension pipe to re-latch a groove in the extension pipe so that the anchor and stroker can further advance a running tool swage to expand the hanger seal. This component with the locking dogs known as an RS packoff in the TORX® product family, was not designed to do anything but release one time after the packer seal was expanded. In trying to do a tack and squeeze job with the TORX® liner hanger the problem after the initial release of the RS tool would be that the dogs would stick on the taper between the expanded going into the unexpanded portions of the liner hanger extension pipe and the running tool would not be able to re-engage the liner hanger to allow use of the anchor and stroker to finish the expansion of the liner hanger seal.
- The known RS packoff seal is discussed in U.S. Pat. No. 8,132,619 with the dogs being 204 that are released from a groove 202 in the unexpanded portion of the liner as the mandrel is raised after the liner hanger anchor and packer are set. This design for the packoff seal was not amenable to release before the packer seal was set followed by a subsequent re-latching. As explained above the dogs would jam trying to re-enter a decreasing taper to re-extend into groove 202. This reference is fully incorporated herein as if actually set forth.
- As a result the old design for the packoff 194 in U.S. Pat. No. 8,132,619 has been reconfigured to allow release after extending the liner hanger slips so that a tack and squeeze job can be undertaken without a trip out of the hole and then the packoff can reengage the groove in the unexpanded portion of the liner hanger extension tube so that the anchor and stroker of the running tool will be anchored to the liner as the liner hanger seal is expanded after the tack and squeeze job. In essence the present invention by providing the improved packoff latching assembly with new functionality of release and re-latching enables a method of running in a liner hanger and setting the anchor portion of the liner hanger followed by the option of doing a standard bottom up cement job and if that is not satisfactory doing a tack and squeeze job without having to pull out of the hole. In essence a standard cement job and a tack and squeeze job can be performed with a liner hanger in a single trip. In the preferred embodiment the liner hanger is set with swage expansion but the present invention contemplates other styles of liner hanger in a one trip dual cementing functionality method that still allows the liner hanger seal to be set after the final cementing operation. These and other aspects of the present invention will be more readily understood from a review of the description of the preferred embodiment and the associated drawings while appreciating that the full scope of the invention is to be determined from the appended claims.

FIG. 6 is the view ofFIG. 5 with the dogs latched to the groove and the retaining latch almost released; -
FIG. 7 is the view ofFIG. 6 showing the retaining latch released. - The FIGS. discussed in detail below belong to a liner hanger assembly shown schematically as
anchor slips 10 andseal 12. Their operation is the same as described in U.S. Pat. No. 8,132,619 but the components that have been redesigned to provide the new functionality are the packoff 194 from that patent which is shown in various positions in detail in the FIGS. The new part is referred to by assignee Baker Hughes Incorporated is theRS packoff assembly 6. The initial expansion of theslips 10 is as described in the referenced patent using a running tool featuring an anchor and a stroker that has aswage 14 at its lower end movable relative tomandrel 1 that is secured for run in tonipple 3 through thepackoff assembly 6 as shown in theFIG. 1 which represents the run in position with thesetting dogs 2 engaged to thegroove 3A. The running tool moves relative to the locked in mandrel to initially expand theslips 10. There are gaps between the slips so that if a bottom up cement job is to be performed, the cement is delivered throughmandrel 1 through thenipple 3 and theliner 16 through a known cement shoe that is not shown at the lower end of theliner 16 and into the surrounding annulus displacing fluid ahead of it through the gaps between theslips 10 since theseal 12 is at this time still not set. The quality of the cement job can be then tested with known techniques and if it is unsatisfactory due to formation conditions then the present invention enables the performance of a tack and squeeze cement job best seen in the sequence of theFIGS. 1-7 . In essence thepackoff assembly 6 is released in conjunction with alatch 4 holding thedogs 2 and other components on thepackoff 6 from moving relatively to themandrel 1 also referred to as a slick stinger. Mandrel 1 is raised past theset slips 10 so that thepackoff assembly 6 comes into the already expanded portion of the liner hanger and out above. The cement can then be pumped at before for a tack and squeeze job and takes the direction ofarrow 18 inFIG. 4 although thelower end 20 is actually moved aboveslips 10 when the tack and squeeze cementing starts. The cement flows through gaps in the ring ofslips 10. There are no returns as it is a squeeze job. When it is over themandrel 1 is set down following the sequence described below forFIGS. 5-7 . Once the re-latching sequence concludes the running tool is again employed to advanceswage 14 into theseal 12 to set the seal. The process ofFIGS. 1-4 is repeated but this time themandrel 1 comes out of the hole. The construction of thepackoff assembly 6 enables going from a standard cementing job through a shoe in the liner to a tack and squeeze job to augment the original cement job if the original cement job was shown to be inadequate. Both cement jobs can be done in a single trip. The design of the packoff assembly takes away concerns for how much seal friction there is inseals dogs 2 are held bylatch 4 when released fromgroove 3A to assure smooth operation when the movements are reversed after the tack and squeeze cement job so that thedogs 2 will not bind when entering the narrowing taper on the way to groove 3A. Flow paths are also provided through thepackoff 6 in the form offlats 1D that go underseal 22 after entering at 7A in theretainer ring 7. A nogo 24 stops re-entry movement such that thedogs 2 align withgroove 3A. -
FIG. 1 represents the run in position and the position during setting theslips 10 and while performing a bottom up cement job. -
FIG. 2 shows the onset of release of theRS packoff assembly 6 from theRS nipple 3, pick upslick stinger 1.Latch 4 will engage over thelatch dogs 9 while the settingdogs 2 are still locked in thegroove 3A and over thelarger diameter 1B of theslick stinger 1 due to the slotteddiameter 1D-FIG. 2A .FIG. 2B shows an isometric view of the slotted diameter. The slotteddiameter 1D prevents settingdogs 2 from moving inward since it provides sufficient support and yet allow flow bypass during pick up of theRS packoff 6. In order to enable thelatch 4 to slide over thelatch dogs 9, aspring 8 is compressed when thelatch dogs 9 moves radially inward. The radial movement and force are translated to an axial movement and force by a ramp. The axial force compresses thespring 8. -
FIG. 3 shows picking up theslick stinger 1 and settingdogs 2 becoming unsupported, moving radially inward, and not locked in thegroove 3A of theRS nipple 3 due to smallerouter diameter 1A of theslick stinger 1. Thelatch 4 and latchdogs 9 are enabled to move relative to each other. The retrievingcollar 5 will no-go on theinner diameter 4A of the latch. Flow bypass is enabled thru theRS packoff assembly 6 which enters from the top thruholes 7A of theretainer ring 7, thru theannulus 6B, then exit thruholes 4B. -
FIG. 4 shows continuation of picking upslick stinger 1 and entireRS packoff assembly 6 moves up and away from thegroove 3A andRS nipple 3. Entire inner string can be pulled out of the hole or for a specified length depending on the current step of the well completion process. For a tack and squeeze job thestinger 1 is lifted above the set slips 10 as explained above. -
FIG. 5 shows the movements after a tack and squeeze job starting with re-sealing the RS-packoff assembly 6 into the run-in position (referenceFIG. 1 ), by moving theslick stinger 1 downward. The force to unlock thelatch 4 will be higher than the friction on theouter seals 6C in order to keep thelatch 4 locked with the latch dogs (9) which pulls theRS packoff assembly 6 downward together until theretainer ring 7 engages a no-go 24 against theinner diameter 3B of theRS nipple 3. Theouter seals 6C are re-sealed in theRS Nipple 3 and the settingdogs 2 are aligned with thegroove 3A. -
FIG. 6 shows movingslick stinger 1 downward to transfer a radial force on thelatch dogs 9 which will transfer an axial force by a ramp to compress aspring 8. Compression of thespring 8 allows thelatch dogs 9 to move radially inward and unlock or disengage from thelatch 4, allowingslick stinger 1 to continue to move down. Settingdogs 2 are pushed radially outward due to thelarger diameter 1B on theslick stinger 1. The settingdogs 2 are locked into thegroove 3A. -
FIG. 7 shows movingslick stinger 1 down, so thatinner seals 22 of theRS packoff assembly 6 are re-sealed on the fullouter diameter 1C of theslick stinger 1 and thelatch 4 is completely unlocked or disengaged from the latch dogs 9. - Several noteworthy features of the present invention need to be emphasized. First is that a liner hanger can permit a standard cement job as well as a tack and squeeze cement job in either order but preferably the standard cement job first without a trip out of the hole. This can be accomplished with any liner hanger whether it sets with expansion as in the preferred embodiment or whether it sets with pressure on dropped balls or some other way. The features of the
packoff 6 that enable the two procedures to be done in a single trip followed by setting theseal 12 are that thedogs 2 get retained to theslick stinger 1 when unlocked and then in the process of re-latching thedogs 2latch 4 is released to allow the stringer to further advance and lock in thedogs 2 and to enable theinner seal 22 as it travels past the flats shown inFIG. 2B to reseal to theslick stinger 1. When the dogs release by upward slick stinger movement theseal 22 goes over theflats 1D to open up a flow passage to allow thepackoff 6 to move up without getting liquid locked. As thedogs 2 release their grip thelatch 4 engages thelatch dogs 9 so that thedogs 2 andslick stinger 1 move up on tandem as flow goes throughpassage 7A. - The above description is illustrative of the preferred embodiment and many modifications may be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the invention whose scope is to be determined from the literal and equivalent scope of the claims below:
