Abstract: A method of sealing a subsurface bore comprises: locating a volume of thermite in the bore; locating a volume of alloy in the bore with the thermite; initiating reaction of the thermite to heat the alloy; and bringing the alloy to above the melting point of the alloy whereby the alloy flows and occludes the bore. The thermite may retain its initial form during or following reaction or may partially fluidise. The thermite may react to provide a platform that at least partially occludes the bore. The alloy may flow over a surface of the thermite.

Abstract: A method of creating a seal in a tubular by melting a first component comprising a fusible alloy, using heat produced by an exothermic, hydrolysis reaction of a second component comprising a metal, to provide a melted fusible alloy, and allowing the melted fusible alloy to solidify in the tubular, wherein the fusible alloy expands upon solidifying and forms the seal. A system for carrying out the method is also provided.

Abstract: A bridge plug assembly includes a tee bushing including a base and a stem, a coned bushing having a conical section and defining a bore that is configured to receive the stem, a molded assembly that is moveable over the conical section from an initial position to a set position, and a seal. The conical section is configured as a wedge such that when the stem is forced into the conical section during a setting process, the molded assembly and the seal move over the conical section from the initial position to the set position and expand radially outward by a wedge action of the conical section against a well casing. The molded assembly includes a slip assembly having a plurality of slip segments, over-molded with an elastomer. All components are made of dissolvable materials so as to reopen the well casing over time to its original inner diameter.

Abstract: A technique facilitates plugging of a wellbore during, for example, a fracturing operation. A frac plug is constructed with an unobstructed internal passage and comprises a seal member combined with a plurality of slips for engaging a surrounding wall, e.g. a surrounding wellbore wall. Additionally, the frac plug comprises a lower sub having raised edges arranged to catch a ball during a flow back stage without blocking flow along the unobstructed internal passage.

Abstract: A housing for a downhole tool, having a fluid vent assembly comprising a port passing through the wall of the housing to transmit fluid through the port when the port is open, a sealing device to seal the port, and a cutting device to disrupt the sealing device and permit transmission of fluid through the port. The cutting device is driven axially through the sealing device without relative rotation between the two. The cutting device has an asymmetric blade to cut a coupon from the sealing device by a gradual and progressive disruption of the closure, typically cutting through only a portion the closure device, so that the coupon cut from the closure device remains attached to the closure device when the closure device is ruptured to open the seal. Typically the downhole tool comprises a downhole pump, and the housing comprises the shroud of the pump.

Abstract: A chemical reaction heat source for use in heaters used in down-hole applications is provided. The heat source has a fuel composition that comprises thermite and a damping agent. The use of the termite mix enables the heaters of the present invention to generate hotter temperatures down wells. This in turn allows the use of Bismuth/Germanium alloys, which have higher melting points, to enable the production of plugs for the abandonment of deeper wells where subterranean temperatures are higher.
