Abstract
A downhole service tool is provided that may include a body having an interior passageway, at least one exit port through which fluid may flow from the interior passageway to an exterior of the tool, and at least one diverting channel adapted to cause fluid exiting the exit port to flow in a predetermined pattern, such as a helical or rotational flow path. The diverting channel may be in the form of a trough, and may also have a tapering width from its upper end to its lower end, where it meets the exterior of the tool. The diverting channel may also have a helical or other predetermined shape so as to facilitate the inducement of the desired flow pattern. By designing the tool so as to create a desired flow pattern, erosion of the tool by the exiting fluid flow is lessened. Related methods are also provided.
Claims (30)
1. A service tool comprising:
a body having an interior passageway, an exterior, and at least one exit port, the at least one exit port providing fluid communication between the interior passageway and the exterior of the body, the at least one exit port being shaped to induce a predefined flow pattern to fluid exiting the exit port.
a body having an interior passageway, an exterior, and at least one exit port, the at least one exit port providing fluid communication between the interior passageway and the exterior of the body, the at least one exit port being shaped to induce a predefined flow pattern to fluid exiting the exit port.
2. The service tool of claim 1, wherein the predefined flow pattern is circular.
3. The service tool of claim 1, wherein the body further includes at least one diverting channel adapted to induce the predefined flow pattern.
4. The service tool of claim 3, wherein the diverting channel defines a helical flow path.
5. The service tool of claim 3, wherein the diverting channel extends downwardly from a longitudinal axis of the tool to the exterior of the body.
6. The service tool of claim 3, wherein the diverting channel is a trough.
7. The service tool of claim 3, wherein the diverting channel includes a gradually-decreasing width from a first width at an upper end thereof to a relatively smaller second width at the exterior of the body.
8. A service tool comprising:
a body having an interior passageway, an exterior, at least one exit port, and at least one diverting channel, the at least one exit port providing fluid communication between the interior passageway and the exterior of the body, the at least one diverting channel being shaped to induce a predefined flow pattern to fluid exiting the exit port.
a body having an interior passageway, an exterior, at least one exit port, and at least one diverting channel, the at least one exit port providing fluid communication between the interior passageway and the exterior of the body, the at least one diverting channel being shaped to induce a predefined flow pattern to fluid exiting the exit port.
9. The service tool of claim 8, wherein the diverting channel is a helical trough.
10. The service tool of claim 8, wherein the predefined flow pattern is circular.
11. The service tool of claim 8, wherein the diverting channel extends downwardly from a longitudinal axis of the tool to the exterior of the body.
12. The service tool of claim 8, wherein the diverting channel includes a gradually-decreasing width from a first width at an upper end thereof to a relatively smaller second width at the exterior of the body.
13. A method of reducing erosion of a downhole tool, comprising:
flowing fluid from an interior passageway of the tool to an exterior of the tool through an exit port in the tool; and inducing a predetermined flow pattern to the fluid exiting the exit port.
flowing fluid from an interior passageway of the tool to an exterior of the tool through an exit port in the tool; and inducing a predetermined flow pattern to the fluid exiting the exit port.
14. The method of claim 13, further including flowing the fluid along a diverting channel.
15. The method of claim 14, wherein the diverting channel is a helical trough.
16. The method of claim 14, wherein the diverting channel extends downwardly from a longitudinal axis of the tool to the exterior of the tool.
17. The method of claim 14, wherein the diverting channel includes a gradually-decreasing width from a first width at an upper end thereof to a relatively smaller second width at the exterior of the tool.
18. The method of claim 13, further including flowing the fluid along a helical path.
19. The method of claim 13, further including inducing a rotational flow pattern to the exiting fluid.
20. The method of claim 13, further including inducing a helical flow pattern to the exiting fluid.
21. The method of claim 13, further including flowing the fluid along a trough in the tool.
22. A method of providing a fluid into a well comprising:
providing fluid to a service tool via a service string, wherein the service tool comprises a body having an interior passageway, an exterior, and at least one exit port, the at least one exit port providing fluid communication between the interior passageway and the exterior of the body, the at least one exit port being shaped to induce a predefined flow pattern to fluid exiting the exit port; and injecting fluid into the wellbore through the at least one exit port.
providing fluid to a service tool via a service string, wherein the service tool comprises a body having an interior passageway, an exterior, and at least one exit port, the at least one exit port providing fluid communication between the interior passageway and the exterior of the body, the at least one exit port being shaped to induce a predefined flow pattern to fluid exiting the exit port; and injecting fluid into the wellbore through the at least one exit port.
23. The method of claim 22, further including flowing the fluid along a diverting channel.
24. The method of claim 23, wherein the diverting channel is a helical trough.
25. The method of claim 23, wherein the diverting channel extends downwardly from a longitudinal axis of the tool to the exterior of the tool.
26. The method of claim 23, wherein the diverting channel includes a gradually-decreasing width from a first width at an upper end thereof to a relatively smaller second width at the exterior of the tool.
27. The method of claim 22, further including flowing the fluid along a helical path.
28. The method of claim 22, further including inducing a rotational flow pattern to the exiting fluid.
29. The method of claim 22, further including inducing a helical flow pattern to the exiting fluid.
30. The method of claim 22, further including flowing the fluid along a trough in the tool.
