view source
US Patent:

8336612, Dec 25, 2012
Filed:

Sep 16, 2011
Appl. No.:

13/200064
Inventors:

Michael C. Robertson - Arlington TX, US
William Boelte - New Iberia LA, US
Assignee:

Robertson Intellectual Properties, LLC - Arlington TX
International Classification:

E21B 29/04
E21B 29/00
US Classification:

166 545, 166 55, 166 556, 166 557, 166297
Abstract:

Methods for severing a tubular string having a cable in association therewith can include lowering a cutting apparatus into the tubular string and actuating the cutting apparatus to form a cut in the tubular string and sever the cable. Severing the cable in this manner can be performed through a single actuation of a single cutting apparatus, enabling at least a portion of the tubular string to be subsequently severed and retrieved, unimpeded by the cable.

US Patent:

8616293, Dec 31, 2013
Filed:

Nov 24, 2009
Appl. No.:

12/625179
Inventors:

Michael C. Robertson - Arlington TX, US
William F. Boelte - New Iberia LA, US
Douglas J. Streibich - Fort Worth TX, US
International Classification:

E21B 23/00
US Classification:

166382, 166 55
Abstract:

A system and method for positioning a tool within a wellbore are described herein. The interior surface of a tubular string is provided with one or more pluralities of grooves, each defining a selected profile. A tool is lowered into the tubular string, having a blade in communication therewith. The blade includes a plurality of protruding members thereon, which define a profile complementary to at least one of the selected profiles formed by one of the pluralities of grooves. A biasing member in communication with the blade continually biases the blade toward the interior surface of the tubular string to cause the profile of the blade to engage within the corresponding complementary profile of the tubular string. Positioning a tool in this manner is especially advantageous for locating a cutting tool at a precise location to sever a tubular segment at a joint, releasing tensile forces from the joint.

US Patent:

20130025883, Jan 31, 2013
Filed:

Jul 24, 2012
Appl. No.:

13/507732
Inventors:

Michael C. Robertson - Burleson TX, US
William F. Boelte - New Iberia LA, US
Douglas J. Streibich - Fort Worth TX, US
Assignee:

MCR Oil Tools, LLC - Arlington TX
International Classification:

E21B 23/01
E21B 23/00
US Classification:

166382, 166119
Abstract:

A system and method for positioning a tool within a wellbore, wherein the interior surface of a positioning apparatus includes one or more pluralities of grooves, each defining a selected profile. A tool is lowered into the positioning apparatus, having a blade in communication therewith. The blade includes a plurality of protruding members, which define a profile complementary to at least one of the selected profiles formed by one of the pluralities of positioning apparatus grooves. A biasing member, in communication with the blade, can continually bias the blade toward the interior surface of the positioning apparatus to cause the profile of the blade to engage within the corresponding complementary profile of the positioning apparatus. Positioning a tool in this manner is advantageous for locating cutting tools at a precise location to sever a joint, perforate casing or stack multiple tool operations at a fixed, targeted point within a wellbore.

US Patent:

20140000877, Jan 2, 2014
Filed:

Jul 2, 2012
Appl. No.:

13/507463
Inventors:

Michael C. Robertson - Arlington TX, US
William F. Boelte - New Iberia LA, US
Douglas J. Streibich - Fort Worth TX, US
Daniel Glenn Jumper - Fort Worth TX, US
International Classification:

E21B 43/12
US Classification:

16625015, 166 53
Abstract:

Systems and methods for monitoring a wellbore and actuating a downhole device include a body adapted for insertion into the wellbore that contains a processor, data storage, and sensors that detect a pressure, temperature, and acceleration associated with the body. Computer instructions are usable to receive and store preselected parameters, which include pressure, temperature, and acceleration ranges, and to compare measured values to these ranges for forming a determination usable to initiate actuation of a downhole tool. Additional parameters, such as temporal parameters, can be used to allow, cease, reset, or prevent actuation of the downhole tool.

Severing Of Downhole Tubing With Associated Cable

US Patent:

8020619, Sep 20, 2011
Filed:

Mar 26, 2008
Appl. No.:

12/055434
Inventors:

Michael C. Robertson - Arlington TX, US
William Boelte - New Iberia LA, US
Assignee:

Robertson Intellectual Properties, LLC - Arlington TX
International Classification:

E21B 43/114
E21B 29/04
US Classification:

166297, 166376, 166 545, 166 55, 166 552
Abstract:

Methods for severing tubing having a cable extending along its length include lowering a first cutting torch into the tubing to a desired location, igniting the first cutting torch, and directing cutting fluids in a circumferential arc to form a first cut in the tubing and sever the cable. A second cutting torch can be lowered and positioned relative to the first cut, and ignited to direct cutting fluids radially to cut the tubing all around the circumference, enabling retrieval of the tubing. The need for precise positioning and alignment of the torches to sever both the cable and tubing is thereby eliminated.

Assignee:

Robertson Intellectual Properties, LLC - Mansfield TX
International Classification:

E21B 47/09
E21B 47/024
E21B 47/01
Abstract:

A location connector connects a first tubular to a second tubular, and includes a cylindrical main body extending at a longitudinal direction. An outer surface extends around a circumference of the main body, and an inner surface laces the central bore of the main body. A first connector, on a first end of the main body, is configured to attach to the first tubular. A second connector, on an opposite second end of the main body, is configured to attach to the second tubular. A female profile is provided on the inner surface. and includes a plurality of grooves for selective engagement with a discrete complementary profile comprising one or more protruding members of a downhole tool. Each of the grooves comprises a no-go shoulder that prevents movement of the tool in one direction, and each of the grooves permits clocking movement of the tool in an azimuthal direction.
