Abstract

An apparatus (50) and a method for at least partially cracking a frangible material (E) in a portion (B) between a first tubular (5) and a second tubular (4) comprises one or more impact devices (54) arranged and configured to impart one or more mechanical impactsto said material. The at least one impact device (54) may comprise a vibration generator (57). A plurality of impact devices (54) may be arranged in the same plane (P1), and several impact devices (54) may be arranged in multiple planes (P1 - Pn). In the method, one or more mechanical impacts are imparted until cracks or fissures (F) form in the material (E).

Claims (19)

Claims
1. A one-trip downhole tool, configured to be arranged at a location in a first tubular (5) characterized by: - a tool (1) having a plurality of drilling tools or milling tools (9) configured for forming holes in the first tubular (5); and - an apparatus (50) for at least partially cracking a frangible material (E) in a portion (B) between said first tubular (5) and a second tubular (4), said first tubular (5) arranged inside said second tubular (4), wherein said apparatus comprises one or more impact devices (54) arranged and configured to impart one or more mechanical impacts to said material.
2. The tool of claim 1, further comprising a plurality of drilling tools or milling tools (9) arranged in the same plane (Qi), substantially perpendicular to the tool' longitudinal axis (Y-Y).
3. The tool of claim 2, wherein drilling tools or milling tools (9) are arranged in multiple planes (Qi - Qn) substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, and wherein each plane comprises two or more drilling tools or milling tools.
4. The tool of claim 1, wherein at least one impact device (54) comprises a vibration generator (57).
5. The tool of any one of claims 1-4, further comprising a plurality of impact devices (54) arranged in the same plane (Pi), substantially perpendicular to the apparatus' longitudinal axis (Y-Y).
6. The tool of claim 5, wherein impact devices (54) are arranged in multiple planes (Pi - Pn) substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, and wherein each plane comprises two or more impact devices.
7. The tool of any one of claims 2-6, wherein the distance between the penetration unit planes (Qi to Qn) is identical with the distance between the crushing tool planes (Pi to Pâ ).
8. The tool of any one of claims 1-7, wherein the impact devices (54) may be operated independently of each other.
9. The tool of any one of claims 1-8, further comprising a manifold housing (52) comprising movable abutment means (53) which may be extended to support the apparatus against a tubular wall, or wherein the abutment means are arranged on the apparatus housing (51).
10. The tool of claim 9, wherein the apparatus housing and flow manifold housing are integrated into one housing.
11. The tool of any one of claims 1-10, wherein the drilling tools or milling tools (9) comprise bores configured for injecting a sealant material from a manifold.
12. A method of depositing a sealant material (T) at a downhole location, characterized by the steps of: a) forming one or more openings (V, C) in a section (M, D) of a first downhole tubular (5); b) at least partially cracking a frangible material (E) in a portion (B) between said first tubular (5) and a second tubular (4), said first tubular (5) arranged inside said second tubular (4), imparting one or more mechanical impacts to at least a portion of said material until cracks or fissures (F) form in the material (E), whereby a space (K) is formed between said tubulars; and c) filling said sealant material (T) into said space (K).
13. The method of claim 12, wherein said steps a, b, c are performed in a single downhole trip.
14. The method of claim 12, wherein said steps a, b, c are performed independently, in separate trips.
15. The method of any one of claims 12-14, wherein the one or more mechanical impacts are vibrations.
16. The method of any one of claims 12-15, wherein step b is performed by one or more impact devices (54) of the apparatus of any one of claims 1-11.
17. The method of any one of claims 12-16, wherein the material is concrete or similar frangible material.
18. The method of any one of claims 12-17, wherein the one or more mechanical impacts are imparted to material directly.
19. The method of any one of claims 12-17, wherein the one or more mechanical impacts are imparted to material indirectly, by imparting the impacts to the inner wall of the first tubular (5).
