Description

DISSOLVABLE DOWNHOLE TOOL, METHOD OF MAKING AND USING
BACKGROUND
[0001] In the subterranean drilling and completion industry there are times when a downhole tool located within a wellbore becomes an unwanted obstruction. Accordingly, downhole tools have been developed that can be deformed, by operator action, for example, such that the tool's presence becomes less burdensome. Although such tools work as intended, their presence, even in a deformed state can still be undesirable. Devices and methods to further remove the burden created by the presence of unnecessary downhole tools are therefore desirable in the art.

[0003] Further disclosed herein is a method of dissolving a downhole tool. The method includes, positioning the downhole tool fabricated of a first material and a second material within a wellbore, reacting the second material, exposing the first material to a downhole environment, reacting the first material with the downhole environment, and dissolving the downhole tool
[0004] Further disclosed herein is a method of making a dissolvable downhole tool. The method includes, encasing particulates of a first reactive material with a second reactive material, and sintering the encased particulates to form the dissolvable downhole tool.
[0005] Further disclosed herein is a method of making a dissolvable downhole tool.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0012] A detailed description of one or more embodiments of the disclosed apparatus and method are presented herein by way of exemplification and not limitation with reference to the Figures.
[0013] Referring to Figure 1, a cross-sectional view of an embodiment of a dissolvable downhole tool, depicted in this embodiment as a tripping ball, is illustrated at 10. Alternate embodiments of the downhole tool include 10, ball seats and cement shoes, for example, as well as other tools whose continued downhole presence may become undesirable. The downhole tool 10 includes a body 14 constructed of at least two reactive materials with this particular embodiment disclosing specifically two reactive materials 18, 22. The first reactive material 18 being much more reactive than the second reactive material 22. These reactivities being defined when the reactive materials 18, 22 are in an environment wherein they are reactive (as will be described in detail below), such as may exist in a downhole environment, for example. The body 14 is configured by the reactive materials 18, 22 to cause the body 14 to dissolve in response to reaction of at least one of the reactive materials 18, 22. The reaction of the at least one reactive material 18, 22 causes dissociation and subsequent dissolving of the downhole tool 10. The dissolving of the downhole tool 10 removes any obstructive effects created by the presence of the downhole tool 10, as any remnants of the body 14 can simply be washed away.
[0014] The reactive materials 18, 22 can be selected and configured such that their reactivity is dependent upon environments to which they are exposed. As such, the reactive materials 18, 22 may be substantially non-reactive until they are positioned downhole and exposed to conditions typically found in a downhole wellbore environment. These conditions include reactants, such as typical wellbore fluids, oil, water, mud and natural gas, for example. Additional downhole conditions that may be reactive with or affect reactivity of the reactive materials 18, 22 alone or in combination with the wellbore fluids include, changes in temperature, changes in pressure, differences in acidity level and electrical potentials, for example. These reactions include but are not limited to oxidation and reduction reactions. These reactions may also include volumetric expansion that can add mechanical stress to aid and accelerate the dissolving of the body 14. Materials that can be reactive in the downhole environment and thus are appropriate choices for either or both of the reactive materials 18, 22 include, magnesium, aluminum, tin, tungsten, nickel, carbon steel, stainless steel and combinations of the aforementioned.
[0015] The reactive materials 18, 22 are configured in the body 14 to control a rate at which the first reactive material 18 (the more reactive of the two reactive materials) reacts thereby also controlling the rate at which the body 14 dissolves. This is in part due to the significant difference in reactivity between the first reactive material 18 and the second reactive material 22. This difference is so significant that a rate of reaction of the first material 18 may be insignificant in comparison to a rate of reaction of the second reactive material 22. This relationship can allow an operator to substantially control the time from first exposure of the downhole tool 10 to a reactive environment until completion of dissolving of the body 14 with primarily just the second reactive material 22. As such, the reactive materials 18, 22 can be configured in relation to one another in various ways, as will be discussed below, to assure the time to dissolve is controlled primarily by the second reactive material 22.
[0016] Referring to Figures 2 and 3, the reactive materials 18, 22, as illustrated, are configured in this embodiment such that the time to dissolve is controlled by the second reactive material 22. Sinterable first particles 28 of the first reactive material 18, and sinterable second particles 32 of the second reactive material 22 are shown in Figure 2 in a green state and in Figure 3 in a forged state. The green state being defined as after the particles 28, 32 are thoroughly mixed and pressed into the shape of the body 14, but prior to sintering. The forged state is after sintering and at a point where fabrication of the downhole tool 10 is complete. In the forged state the first particles 28 are sealed from direct exposure to the downhole environment by sealing of adjacent second particles 32 to one another, including interstitial webbing 36 formed during the sintering process. This sealing of the first particles 28 prevents their reacting. A thickness 40 of the interstitial webbing 36 is the thinnest and weakest portion of the seal created by the sintering of the second particles 32. As such, a leak path through the seal will likely occur first at the interstitial webbing 36 in response to reaction and subsequent degradation of the second material 22. Through control of the sintering process the thickness 40 of the interstitial webbing 36 can be accurately controlled. Such control allows an operator to forecast the time needed to degrade the interstitial webbing 36 to the point that the first particles 28 begin to be exposed to the downhole environment and begin to react. Once the first particles 28 begin to react the additional time needed for the body 14 to dissolve is short.
[0017] The body 14 can be configured such that once reaction of the first particles 28 has begun reaction of other nearby first particles 28 can be accelerated creating a chain reaction that quickly results in dissolving of the body 14. This acceleration can be due to newly reactive chemicals that are released by reactions of the first reactive material 18, or by heat given off during reaction of the first particles 28, in the case of an exothermic reaction, or by volumetric expansion of the reaction that mechanically opens new pathways to expose new first particles 28 to the downhole environment.
[0018] In an alternate embodiment, reactivity of the second reactive material 22 can be so slow as to be considered fully non-reactive. In such an embodiment the reaction rate of the first reactive material 18 is controlled, not by the reaction rate of the second reactive material 22 (since the second reactive material is does not react) but instead by sizes of interstitial openings (not shown but would be in place of the interstitial webbing 36 of the previous embodiment) between adjacent sintered second particles 32 of the second reactive material 22. The small size of the interstitial openings limits the exposure of the first particles 28 of the first reactive material 18 that controls a reaction rate of the first reactive material 18.
[0019] Referring to Figure 4, an alternate embodiment of a sintered structure 110 is illustrated. The sintered structure 110 includes sintered particles 112 having an inner core 118 made of the first reactive material 18 and a shell 122 made of the second reactive material 22. In this embodiment, the first reactive material 18 is sealed from the downhole environment by the shell 122 made of the second reactive material 22. Degradation of the shell 122 in response to reaction of the second reactive material 22 causes a breach of the shell 122 and results in exposure of the first reactive material 18 to the downhole environment. All other things being equal, control of a thickness 140 of the shell 122 can determine the time from initial exposure of the tool 10 to the downhole environment until initiation of exposure, and subsequent reaction of the first reactive material 18, and consequently the time for dissolving of the downhole tool 10. [0020] Alternate embodiments of structures contemplated but not specifically illustrated herein include, sintering mixtures of particles with some particles having multiple reactive materials, such as the sintered particles 112, and some having just one reactive material such as the first particles 28 or the second particles 32. Still other embodiments may include particles having two or more shells of reactive materials with each additional shell being positioned radially outwardly of the previous shell.
[0021] Referring to Figure 5, another embodiment of a dissolvable downhole tool, depicted herein as a tripping ball, is illustrated at 210. The downhole tool 210 includes, an inner portion 218, made of the first reactive material 18 and a shell 222 made of the second reactive material 22. The shell 222 sealingly encases the inner portion 218 thereby occluding direct contact between the first reactive material 18 and the downhole environment. The shell 222 is configured to react with the downhole environment thereby degrading the shell 222 resulting in exposure the first reactive material 18 of the inner portion 218 directly to the downhole environment, and subsequent reaction therewith. Similar to the process described above, in reference to the downhole tool 10, reaction of the first reactive material 18 causes the dissolvable downhole tool 210 to dissolve.
[0022] Several parameters of the downhole tool 210 can be selected to control the rate of reaction of the second reactive material 22 and ultimately the exposure of the first reactive material 18 and the full dissolving of the downhole tool 210. For example, the chemical make up of the second reactive material 22, an amount of alloying of the second reactive materials 22 with other less reactive or non-reactive materials, density, and porosity. As described above a thickness 240 of the shell 222 can be established to control a time lapse after exposure to a reactive environment until a breach of the shell 222 exposes the first reactive material 18 to the reactive environment. Additionally, an electrolytic cell between either the first reactive material 18 and the second reactive material 22 or between at least one of the reactive materials 18, 22 and another downhole component can be established to create an anodic reaction to effect the reaction rate and the associated time to dissolve the downhole tool 210.
[0023] The aforementioned parameters can be selected for specific applications such that the reaction is estimated to result in the downhole tool 10, 210 dissolving within a specific period of time such as within two to seven days of being positioned downhole, for example. Such knowledge allows a well operator to utilize the downhole tool 10, 210 for a specific purpose and specific period of time while not having to be burdened by the presence of the tool 10, 210 after usefulness of the downhole tool 10, 210 has expired. [0024] While the invention has been described with reference to an exemplary embodiment or embodiments, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes may be made and equivalents may be substituted for elements thereof without departing from the scope of the invention. In addition, many modifications may be made to adapt a particular situation or material to the teachings of the invention without departing from the essential scope thereof. Therefore, it is intended that the invention not be limited to the particular embodiment disclosed as the best mode contemplated for carrying out this invention, but that the invention will include all embodiments falling within the scope of the claims. Also, in the drawings and the description, there have been disclosed exemplary embodiments of the invention and, although specific terms may have been employed, they are unless otherwise stated used in a generic and descriptive sense only and not for purposes of limitation, the scope of the invention therefore not being so limited. Moreover, the use of the terms first, second, etc. do not denote any order or importance, but rather the terms first, second, etc. are used to distinguish one element from another. Furthermore, the use of the terms a, an, etc. do not denote a limitation of quantity, but rather denote the presence of at least one of the referenced item.
