Filter Assembly Having A Bypass Passageway And Method

View page
US Patent:
7243740, Jul 17, 2007
Filed:
Nov 9, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/984466
Inventors:
Terrence G. Frith - Lafayette LA, US
Assignee:
PathFinder Energy Services, Inc. - Houston TX
International Classification:
E21B 4/02
US Classification:
175107, 166205, 210132, 210430
Abstract:
A filter assembly including a primary flow passageway having at least one filter deployed therein and a secondary flow passageway having a bypass filter deployed therein is provided. The filter assembly further includes a bypass valve assembly configured to selectively open and close the secondary flow passageway when a fluid pressure is respectively above and below an adjustable, predetermined threshold value. Exemplary embodiments of this invention may be coupled to a drill string and advantageously utilized to filter drilling fluid downhole. Such embodiments tend to advantageously improve the filtering efficiency and safety of drilling operations.

Servo-Driven Mud Pulser

View page
US Patent:
60162880, Jan 18, 2000
Filed:
Jul 25, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/687207
Inventors:
Terrence G. Frith - Lafayette LA
Assignee:
Thomas Tools, Inc. - New Iberia LA
International Classification:
G01V 140
US Classification:
367 85
Abstract:
An improved servo-driven pulser is disclosed, for use in measurement while drilling applications. In the pulser, a battery powered on-board DC electric motor is used to operate a servo-valve, which in turn adjusts internal tool fluid pressures to cause operation of a main valve to substantially reduce mud flow to a drill bit, thereby creating a positive pressure pulse detectable at the surface. De-energizing the motor driving the pilot valve results in re-adjustment of internal fluid pressures, causing the main valve to reopen, thereby terminating the pressure pulse.

Oscillating Datalink Useful In Downhole Applications

View page
US Patent:
20220186611, Jun 16, 2022
Filed:
Dec 10, 2021
Appl. No.:
17/548435
Inventors:
- Scott LA, US
Terrence G. Frith - Lafayette LA, US
J. Hunter Simmons - Lafayette LA, US
International Classification:
E21B 47/13
Abstract:
A datalink tool comprising an MWD-connected assembly disposed to move relative to an LWD-connected assembly. A hardwired electrical connection is provided between the MWD-connected and LWD-connected assemblies. An oil space is provided such that at least part of the hardwired electrical connection is configured to be immersed in a nonconductive oil contained inside the oil space. A compensator sleeve contributes at least in part to isolation of nonconductive oil in the oil space from drilling fluid residing outside the space. In some deployments, the drilling fluid may be conductive. The compensator sleeve is disposed to expand and relax in response to pressure variations in the drilling fluid, thereby attenuating a corresponding effect of the pressure variations in the nonconductive oil inside the oil space.

Compensator, Thrust Bearing And Torsion Bar For Servo-Driven Mud Pulser

View page
US Patent:
20180347350, Dec 6, 2018
Filed:
Jun 4, 2018
Appl. No.:
15/997484
Inventors:
- Lafayette LA, US
Terrence G. Frith - Lafayette LA, US
International Classification:
E21B 47/18
Abstract:
A pressure compensator assembly is deployed in a servo-driven mud pulser. The assembly includes a generally tubular compensator sleeve that expands and contracts in a radial direction in order to compensate for pressure differentials across the compensator sleeve. A thrust bearing arrangement is also deployed in a servo-driven mud pulser, the thrust bearing arrangement designed to protect the servo motor from reactive energy caused by servo motor stalls as the motor changes direction of rotation. A torsion bar is deployed in a drill string to protect fragile components and electronics in the drill string by absorbing and smoothing out torsion spikes in the drill string arising from stick-slip events.

Shock Absorbing Ubho/Pulser Sub Assembly With Optional Mud Filter

View page
US Patent:
20160290066, Oct 6, 2016
Filed:
Mar 30, 2016
Appl. No.:
15/085436
Inventors:
- Lafayette LA, US
Terrence G. Frith - Lafayette LA, US
International Classification:
E21B 17/07
E21B 21/00
Abstract:
A shock sleeve is positioned above a UBHO sleeve, and both are received inside a substantially tubular sub collar. The shock sleeve is free to reciprocate with respect to the UBHO sleeve and sub collar. A mud pulse transmitter valve is received into the shock sleeve. The shock sleeve is interposed between upper and lower shock springs, which provide compensating compression spring bias to dampen the transmitter valve (as received in the shock sleeve) from vibration or shock forces experienced by the sub collar. At least one shock absorbing compression ring interposed between mating portions of the shock sleeve and transmitter valve also dampens the transmitter valve against vibration or shock. An optional mud filter received over the shock sleeve removes particulate matter from drilling fluid before it encounters the shock sleeve.
