A downhole tool for determining laterals in a borehole wall or a borehole casing, comprising a tool housing extending along a longitudinal axis and having a circumference perpendicular to the longitudinal axis and a plurality of sonic transceivers. Each sonic transceiver transmitting sonic signals from the housing and receiving sonic signals reflected from the borehole wall or borehole casing in a predefined angular segment. The sonic transceivers are arranged along the circumference of the tool housing having a mutual distance and are capable of transmitting sonic signals radially away from the tool housing in an entire central angle of 360 degrees towards the borehole wall or borehole casing. During a pulse time, one sonic transceiver transmits a sonic signal in the predefined angular segment of that sonic transmitter, and one sonic transceiver, during a subsequent echo time, receives a reflected sonic signal from the borehole wall or borehole casing.

A redressing method for arranging an inner production casing within an existing production casing in order to re-establish production of hydrocarbon-containing fluid in a well, comprises providing the inner production casing to having a substantially constant inner diameter, the inner production casing comprising spaced first and second annular barriers. Each annular barrier has a tubular metal part and an expandable metal sleeve surrounding the tubular metal part. Each barrier has an inner face facing the tubular metal part and an outer face facing an inner wall of the existing production casing. The inner production casing has an outer unexpanded diameter which is smaller than the first inner diameter of the existing production casing. The existing production casing is redressed by introducing the inner production casing into the existing production casing, arranging the first annular barrier on one side of the first inflow section and the second annular barrier on the other side of the inflow section, thereby isolating an inflow of fluid from the first inflow section, encapsulating the first inflow section of the existing production casing by expanding the expandable metal sleeves of the first annular barrier and the second annular barrier, thereby isolating the first inflow section.

Abrégé

The present invention relates to a downhole sensor system for measuring a pressure of a fluid downhole in a well, comprising a well tubular structure having an inside and being arranged in a borehole with a wall and an annulus defined between the well tubular structure and the wall of the borehole, a sensor unit having a pressure unit sensor and being arranged in connection with the well tubular structure, the pressure unit sensor being adapted to measure a pressure of the fluid in the inside of the well tubular structure and/or in the annulus, the sensor unit further comprising a power supply and a communication module, a downhole tool comprising a power supply and a communication module for communication with the sensor unit, wherein the downhole tool further comprises a pressure tool sensor adapted to measure a pressure of the fluid inside the well tubular structure substantially opposite the pressure unit sensor for comparison with the pressure measured by the pressure unit sensor. The present invention also relates to a measuring method, calibrating methods and an isolation testing method.

Abrégé

The present invention relates to a downhole well system for producing hydrocarbon-containing fluid from a reservoir downhole, comprising a well tubular structure having an inside, a first and a second annular barrier for isolating an annulus outside the well tubular structure, each annular barrier comprising a tubular part adapted to be mounted as part of the well tubular structure, the tubular part having an outer face, an expandable metal sleeve surrounding the tubular part and having an inner sleeve face facing the tubular part and an outer sleeve face facing a wall of a borehole, each end of the expandable sleeve being connected with the tubular part, and an annular space between the inner sleeve face of the expandable sleeve and the tubular part, the first and second annular barriers being adapted to isolate a production zone when expanded, and an inflow valve assembly arranged between the first and the second annular barriers opposite the production zone for providing fluid communication between the production zone and the inside of the well tubular structure through a passage in the inflow valve assembly by adjusting a closing member in relation to the passage, wherein the inflow valve assembly comprises a sensor unit comprising a sensor adapted to measure at least one property of the fluid, a power supply for powering at least the sensor, and a control unit for activating the adjustment of the closing member based upon the measurement of the sensor. Furthermore, the present invention relates to an inflow regulation method for adjusting the inflow of fluid in the downhole well system according to the invention.

Abrégé

The present invention relates to a downhole stimulation system for stimulating production. The system has first and second inflatable packers (6) for isolating a production zone (10), the packers being inflated through aperture (15), a sliding sleeve valve (17) arranged between the two packers, the sleeve having an opening (19) to provide fluid communication between the inside of the well tubular and the production zone. In operation the inflatable device is set downstream of the inflation aperture of the lower packer, the well is pressurized to move the tool downstream to open the sliding sleeve valve, whereafter fracturing fluid with proppants having a size which is smaller than that of the sliding sleeve opening (19) and larger than the packer inflation aperture (15), is pumped downhole using a displacement means such as a piston element.
