Inventors:

- Houston TX, US
Jason Michael Pope - Magnolia TX, US

Assignee:

Hunting Energy Services, Inc. - Houston TX

International Classification:

E21B 21/06

Abstract:

A filter screen assembly is shown for filtering drilling mud used during oil and gas well drilling operations. The filter screen assembly is installed at the surface of a well on the discharge side of the mud pump at ground level. The filter screen assembly is installed upstream of the rig swivel, rotary hose and Kelly and downstream of the discharge from the mud pump. Since it is located at ground level, it does not pose the safely hazard associated with elevated components. It does not need to be removed and reinstalled when additional segments are added to the drill string and is always easily accessible for routine maintenance or replacement.

Abstract:

The lower end assembly of a measurement while drilling tool is secured against shock and vibration while drilling through the use of a locking cuff, an abrasion ring and a locking nut. A mule shoe at a lower end of the assembly has a diameter sized to allow a pulser helix to pass. The locking cuff is installed on one end of the mule shoe. A poppet housing is attached to an end of the pulser helix opposite the mule shoe. An abrasion ring is received about the external diameter of the pulser helix and is received on a shoulder located between the pulser helix and the poppet housing. An externally threaded lower end of the locking nut is received within a mating threaded bore in the extended locking cuff so that a portion of the locking nut is located between the locking cuff and the poppet housing. Tightening the locking nut within the bore of the locking cuff acts to lock the lower end assembly with respect to the mule shoe.
