201 APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR DRILLING DEVIATED WELLBORES US15772007 2016-10-19 US20180313156A1 2018-11-01 David Joe Steele; Clifford Lynn Talley; Doug Durst; Mark C. Glaser
Systems and methods are described for drilling a new secondary wellbore from a primary wellbore in which a production string is already deployed. The production string is severed below a desired kick-off location for the new secondary wellbore and the upstream portion of the production string is withdrawn from the primary wellbore, thereby exposing an end of the remaining production string. A lateral orientation device (LOD) is mounted on the exposed end of the production string. The LOD includes a shoulder for seating on the exposed end, anchoring mechanism(s) to secure the LOD to adjacent tubular(s), and seals to sealingly engage adjacent tubulars. The LOD may include a contoured surface for orientation of a tool, such as a whipstock, which may be utilized to drill a new wellbore. Alternatively, a work string may be coupled with the LOD to perform pumping operations in the wellbore below the LOD.

217 Degradable Devices With Assured Identification of Removal US15701701 2017-09-12 US20180087369A1 2018-03-29 Andrew Sherman; Brian Doud
The use of degradable or dissolvable tools has become a more common practice in subterranean operations for such applications as temporarily isolating zones or diverting flow. A major concern of operators in using degradable tools is the ability to ensure that the tool has completely degraded and is no longer blocking or obstructing flow. This issue can be resolved through the use of degradable or dissolving tools and devices that include one or more tracer elements (e.g., tracer chemicals, chemical elements, particles, tags [RFID, physical tag, microdevice, etc.], etc.) that are released upon the partial or full dissolution of the degradable component, and which can be detected at the surface to ensure the desired degradation or removal of the degradable component as well as hydraulic access to that stage.

220 Extended reach plug US15588608 2017-05-06 US09850736B2 2017-12-26 Warren Lynn Frazier
A settable down hole tool is of increased drillability and/or of increased expansibility. The improvement in drillability can be caused by fracturing cast iron slips into a large number of small pieces that can be circulated out of a well without further reduction in size. The improvement in expansibility can be partially caused by providing an expander cone of increased hardness thereby allowing an increased angle on the expander cone and slips. The improvement in expansibility can be partially caused by increasing the thickness of the slips.
