CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION
[0001] The present application claims priority to United States Provisional Patent Application Serial No. 61/052,919, filed May 13, 2008, the entire contents of which are specifically incorporated herein by reference.
BACKGROUND
[0002] SAGD or Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage is a method for extracting liquid hydrocarbons from tar sand type deposits. Due to the bituminous condition of the hydrocarbon reserves in such deposits, flow by conventional means does not occur at all or at a rate that can support any commercial activity. Utilizing steam to heat the formation so that the hydrocarbon deposits can flow allows production of the deposits.
Generally, SAGD systems utilize two or more boreholes where one or more is a producer well and one or more is an injector well. The injector wells are utilized to inject high temperature steam into the formation to heat the same and thereby reduce the viscosity of the bituminous deposit sufficiently to allow flow thereof. The production welts catch the flowing hydrocarbon and ferry it to surface for further processing.
Generally, SAGD systems utilize two or more boreholes where one or more is a producer well and one or more is an injector well. The injector wells are utilized to inject high temperature steam into the formation to heat the same and thereby reduce the viscosity of the bituminous deposit sufficiently to allow flow thereof. The production welts catch the flowing hydrocarbon and ferry it to surface for further processing.
[0003] Existing systems designed to perform the method discussed above are functional but require cooling of the wellbore if components need to be removed to surface for servicing. This is because the components are so hot from steam injection that they are difficult to handle at the rotary table. Further, many of the components are badly distorted by recovery to surface due to the high temperature at which they are pulled from the wellbore.
[0004] In view of greater demand for oil and other hydrocarbon products, more efficient means of extracting hydrocarbons from tar sand type deposits will be well received by the art.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0017] Referring to Figure 1, a BIiA 10 specifically suited to the SAGD
environment is illustrated. The BHA 10 includes an open hole segment 12 illustrated with two fluid access structures 14 such as equalizers (such as part number H486785500, commercially available from Baker Oil Tools Houston Texas), though it is to be understood that one or more equalizers 14 are contemplated. At a downhole end of the BHA 10 is a bull plug 16 or other cap. Disposed about the one or more equalizers 14 is an outer shroud 18. A control line connector 20, such as a PZM Quick Connect (also commercially available from Baker Oil Tools, Houston Texas) is employed to physically connect the equalizers 14 packer and seal bore assembly 22. Assembly 22 comprises a control line feed-through packer 24 sealable to a casing wa1126. In one embodiment the packer 24 is a PZM FT packer commercially available from Baker Oil Tools under part number H488-75-9600. Extending from the packer 24 is a tubular 28 having a selectively closeable valve 30 such as an ICS Defender valve (commercially available from Baker Oil Tools) and a seal bore 32. An upper string 34, that will be described more fully later in this disclosure, is stabbed into seal bore 32 creating a fluid tight interface 36. By these components in combination a flow channe138 is created axially of the components and an annular flow pathway 40. The annular flow pathway 40 is fluidly communicated to an annulus 24 outside of the shroud 18 through selectively closable valve 30, which is initially open.
[0018] Referring to Figure 2, arrows are added to the illustration of Figure I
that indicate the fluid flow directions in a first step of use of either an injection or production wellbore of the system. This is the "warm-up" phase where steam is caused to flow in the direction of the arrows to warm the reservoir prior to higher pressure steam injection.
Steam flows through the equalizer(s) 14 to be evenly distributed through the open hole and then flows back toward annulus 40 through the selectively closable valve 30. It is also to be noted in Figure 2, that a collapse area 42 is illustrated to show that flow is not impeded for the applied fluid because there is a pathway between the shroud 18 and the equalizer(s)14 through which the flow may continue. When sufficient steam has been delivered to the target location, as determined by sensor readings or some calculated method, the "warm-up" phase is complete and flow is reversed as illustrated in figure 3.
[0019] In Figure 3 it will be appreciated that flow of fluid is opposite that illustrated in figure 2. In one embodiment, it is this flow direction coupled with a threshold flow velocity that causes the valve 30 to close. In such an embodiment, one valve that operates effectively for the purpose is the ICS Defender valve from Baker Oil Tools noted above. In other embodiments however, it is to be appreciated that ultimately the requirement is that the flow path through the valve 30 be terminated after the warm-up phase is concluded. This can be accomplished with an intervention tool if necessary.
Graphic illustration of the effect of closure of the valve is provided in Figure 4.
[0020] As noted above, Figures 1-4 are representative of both injector and producer wells in the system disclosed herein. At this point in the operation of the wells, the actions of the injector well(s) and the producer well(s) diverge.
[0021] Referring to Figure 5, an illustration of fluid flow in the injector well(s) is provided. Arrows indicate the direction of fluid flow, which at this point is generally steam, into the formation. Since the valve 30 is at this point closed, there is no escape route for the steam other than into the formation, Pumping from surface causes a condition known as a "squeeze" to force the steam into the formation.
Equalizer(s) 14 will ensure an even distribution of the steam into the formation. The steam heats the forniation to reduce viscosity of the target hydrocarbon fluid to facilitate gravity drainage of the same. The draining fluid flows to the producer well(s) for production.
[0022] Referring to Figure 6, a producer well is illustrated with arrows showing target hydrocarbon fluid evenly flowing into the system through the equalizer(s) 14 to the axial flow channel 38 and uphole.
[0023] The portion of the system just described avoids the need for nested tubulars while preserving and enhancing the functionality of a SAGD system.
[0024] Referring now to Figures 7 and 8, a portion of the system disclosed herein, that portion being associated only with the producer well(s), is illustrated.
At a downhole end of the drawing, the packer 24 described above can be seen. This will provide continuity with the above discussed figures. Uphole string 34 includes one or more space out subs 44 (one shown) and a seal bore sub 46 attached thereto. The seal bore sub 46 includes a seal bore 48 and is connected at its uphole end to a tubular 50, also a part of uphole string 34. Within the tubular 50 and stabbed into the seal bore 48 is an inner string 52 sealingly engaged with the seal bore 48 in uphole string 34. Inner string 52 includes a reservoir control valve 54 that is closeable and openable automatically based upon withdrawal of the rest of the inner string 52, which is pulled in the event that an electric submersible pump (ESP) requires maintenance or replacement. Retuming to the inner string 52 components, an ESP housing 56, which houses an ESP 58, is connected to a backflow valve 60 such as a flapper valve and a radial flow valve 62 such as a sliding sleeve. This configuration of components allows for one important benefit of the presently disclosed system in that the ESP 58Zalong with the majority of the inner string 52 (everything but the reservoir control valve 54), can be pulled from the well without affecting the completion below the packer 24 and without disturbing any control lines 64.
This feature of the invention is enabled by the uphole string 34 configuration and support of the control lines 64 by tubular 50 and the packer 24. Each of the packer 24 and the tubular 50 are configured with the capability of feeding through control lines 64 so that they are not impacted by a removal of the inner string 52. Withdrawal of the ESP and inner string 52, therefore, does not affect control lines 64 that monitor or control wellbore operations downhole of the ESP, in an embodiment that uses such control lines.
This means that the most heated portion of the system does not have to be cooled, and the heat in the formation is not lost. Further, because of the valve 54, the well is shut in upon pulling the uphole string 34. In practice, the bacldlow valve 60 is triggered by a reversal of flow direction, i.e., flow is downhole axially through the uphole string 34. This both causes the valve 62 to open and subsequent to closing causes pressure to rise in the uphole string 34, which causes the valve 62 to open. Reverse circulation can then be initiated to cool the uphole string 34 for retrieval to the surface while having a minimal affect on the temperature of the formation and lower completion. Figure 8 illustrates the cooling reverse flow on the uphole string 34. Removal of the ESP for any reason is thus facilitated where in prior systems, a significant burden would be encountered if the ESP
required maintenance.
[0025] While preferred embodiments have been shown and described, modifications and substitutions may be made thereto without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Accordingly, it is to be understood that the present invention has been described by way of illustrations and not limitation.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0017] Referring to Figure 1, a BIiA 10 specifically suited to the SAGD
environment is illustrated. The BHA 10 includes an open hole segment 12 illustrated with two fluid access structures 14 such as equalizers (such as part number H486785500, commercially available from Baker Oil Tools Houston Texas), though it is to be understood that one or more equalizers 14 are contemplated. At a downhole end of the BHA 10 is a bull plug 16 or other cap. Disposed about the one or more equalizers 14 is an outer shroud 18. A control line connector 20, such as a PZM Quick Connect (also commercially available from Baker Oil Tools, Houston Texas) is employed to physically connect the equalizers 14 packer and seal bore assembly 22. Assembly 22 comprises a control line feed-through packer 24 sealable to a casing wa1126. In one embodiment the packer 24 is a PZM FT packer commercially available from Baker Oil Tools under part number H488-75-9600. Extending from the packer 24 is a tubular 28 having a selectively closeable valve 30 such as an ICS Defender valve (commercially available from Baker Oil Tools) and a seal bore 32. An upper string 34, that will be described more fully later in this disclosure, is stabbed into seal bore 32 creating a fluid tight interface 36. By these components in combination a flow channe138 is created axially of the components and an annular flow pathway 40. The annular flow pathway 40 is fluidly communicated to an annulus 24 outside of the shroud 18 through selectively closable valve 30, which is initially open.
[0018] Referring to Figure 2, arrows are added to the illustration of Figure I
that indicate the fluid flow directions in a first step of use of either an injection or production wellbore of the system. This is the "warm-up" phase where steam is caused to flow in the direction of the arrows to warm the reservoir prior to higher pressure steam injection.
Steam flows through the equalizer(s) 14 to be evenly distributed through the open hole and then flows back toward annulus 40 through the selectively closable valve 30. It is also to be noted in Figure 2, that a collapse area 42 is illustrated to show that flow is not impeded for the applied fluid because there is a pathway between the shroud 18 and the equalizer(s)14 through which the flow may continue. When sufficient steam has been delivered to the target location, as determined by sensor readings or some calculated method, the "warm-up" phase is complete and flow is reversed as illustrated in figure 3.
[0019] In Figure 3 it will be appreciated that flow of fluid is opposite that illustrated in figure 2. In one embodiment, it is this flow direction coupled with a threshold flow velocity that causes the valve 30 to close. In such an embodiment, one valve that operates effectively for the purpose is the ICS Defender valve from Baker Oil Tools noted above. In other embodiments however, it is to be appreciated that ultimately the requirement is that the flow path through the valve 30 be terminated after the warm-up phase is concluded. This can be accomplished with an intervention tool if necessary.
Graphic illustration of the effect of closure of the valve is provided in Figure 4.
[0020] As noted above, Figures 1-4 are representative of both injector and producer wells in the system disclosed herein. At this point in the operation of the wells, the actions of the injector well(s) and the producer well(s) diverge.
[0021] Referring to Figure 5, an illustration of fluid flow in the injector well(s) is provided. Arrows indicate the direction of fluid flow, which at this point is generally steam, into the formation. Since the valve 30 is at this point closed, there is no escape route for the steam other than into the formation, Pumping from surface causes a condition known as a "squeeze" to force the steam into the formation.
Equalizer(s) 14 will ensure an even distribution of the steam into the formation. The steam heats the forniation to reduce viscosity of the target hydrocarbon fluid to facilitate gravity drainage of the same. The draining fluid flows to the producer well(s) for production.
[0022] Referring to Figure 6, a producer well is illustrated with arrows showing target hydrocarbon fluid evenly flowing into the system through the equalizer(s) 14 to the axial flow channel 38 and uphole.
[0023] The portion of the system just described avoids the need for nested tubulars while preserving and enhancing the functionality of a SAGD system.
[0024] Referring now to Figures 7 and 8, a portion of the system disclosed herein, that portion being associated only with the producer well(s), is illustrated.
At a downhole end of the drawing, the packer 24 described above can be seen. This will provide continuity with the above discussed figures. Uphole string 34 includes one or more space out subs 44 (one shown) and a seal bore sub 46 attached thereto. The seal bore sub 46 includes a seal bore 48 and is connected at its uphole end to a tubular 50, also a part of uphole string 34. Within the tubular 50 and stabbed into the seal bore 48 is an inner string 52 sealingly engaged with the seal bore 48 in uphole string 34. Inner string 52 includes a reservoir control valve 54 that is closeable and openable automatically based upon withdrawal of the rest of the inner string 52, which is pulled in the event that an electric submersible pump (ESP) requires maintenance or replacement. Retuming to the inner string 52 components, an ESP housing 56, which houses an ESP 58, is connected to a backflow valve 60 such as a flapper valve and a radial flow valve 62 such as a sliding sleeve. This configuration of components allows for one important benefit of the presently disclosed system in that the ESP 58Zalong with the majority of the inner string 52 (everything but the reservoir control valve 54), can be pulled from the well without affecting the completion below the packer 24 and without disturbing any control lines 64.
This feature of the invention is enabled by the uphole string 34 configuration and support of the control lines 64 by tubular 50 and the packer 24. Each of the packer 24 and the tubular 50 are configured with the capability of feeding through control lines 64 so that they are not impacted by a removal of the inner string 52. Withdrawal of the ESP and inner string 52, therefore, does not affect control lines 64 that monitor or control wellbore operations downhole of the ESP, in an embodiment that uses such control lines.
This means that the most heated portion of the system does not have to be cooled, and the heat in the formation is not lost. Further, because of the valve 54, the well is shut in upon pulling the uphole string 34. In practice, the bacldlow valve 60 is triggered by a reversal of flow direction, i.e., flow is downhole axially through the uphole string 34. This both causes the valve 62 to open and subsequent to closing causes pressure to rise in the uphole string 34, which causes the valve 62 to open. Reverse circulation can then be initiated to cool the uphole string 34 for retrieval to the surface while having a minimal affect on the temperature of the formation and lower completion. Figure 8 illustrates the cooling reverse flow on the uphole string 34. Removal of the ESP for any reason is thus facilitated where in prior systems, a significant burden would be encountered if the ESP
required maintenance.
[0025] While preferred embodiments have been shown and described, modifications and substitutions may be made thereto without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Accordingly, it is to be understood that the present invention has been described by way of illustrations and not limitation.
