Subterranean Room Conduit Conveyor Assemblies and Methods for Extending Conduit from a Subterranean Room
Abstract
Subterranean room conduit conveyor assemblies are provided comprising a conveyor operatively aligned with a guide assembly, the guide assembly operatively aligned with a subterranean well head. Methods for extending conduit from a subterranean room to within a well extending from the room to within the earth surrounding the room are provided, the methods comprising operatively aligning a conveyor assembly with the well head of the well, feeding coiled conduit to the conveyor assembly, and conveying the conduit from the assembly into the well head of the well from the room. Well clean out nozzles are provided as well.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A subterranean room conduit conveyor assembly comprising a conveyor operatively aligned with a guide assembly, the guide assembly operatively aligned with a subterranean well head.
2 . The assembly of claim 1 wherein the guide assembly comprises at least two aligned conduit guides.
3 . The assembly of claim 2 wherein the conveyor is aligned between the two guides.
4 . The assembly of claim 1 wherein the guide assembly comprises at least one wheel rotatably aligned with the well head.
5 . The assembly of claim 4 wherein the wheel further comprises tread about the wheel.
6 . The assembly of claim 5 wherein the tread further comprises a trough extending along the tread.
7 . A subterranean room conduit conveyor assembly comprising:
a conveyor: a guide assembly; and a well head coupling.
8 . The assembly of claim 7 wherein the conveyor comprises at least one wheel rotatable about an axis substantially normal to the guide assembly.
9 . The assembly of claim 7 wherein the conveyor comprises at least two wheels, the wheels arranged opposing one another along parallel axis, the axis substantially normal to the guide assembly.
10 . The assembly of claim 7 wherein conveyor comprises at least one conveyor surface configured to engage conduit, the surface defining a trough therein.
11 . The assembly of claim 10 wherein the conveyor further comprises another conveyor surface opposing the one surface.
12 . The assembly of claim 11 wherein the other surface defines a complimentary trough.
13 . The assembly of claim 11 wherein the other conveyor is biased against the one conveyor.
14 . A method for extending conduit from a subterranean room to within a well extending from the room to within the earth surrounding the room, the method comprising:
operatively aligning a conveyor assembly with the well head of the well: feeding coiled conduit to the conveyor assembly; and conveying the conduit from the assembly into the well head of the well from the room.
15 . The method of claim 14 further comprising vising the conduit between a pair of biased conveyors.
16 . The method of claim 14 further comprising extending the conduit through a guide prior is comprised by feeding the coiled conduit to the conveyor assembly.
17 . A method for extending conduit from a subterranean room to within a well extending from the room, the method comprising:
providing conduit having nozzle attached thereto: nozzled end first, extending the conduit into the well; and projecting fluid from the nozzle to within the well, the projecting conveying the conduit to within the well.
18 . The method of claim 17 wherein the projecting the fluid comprises directing the fluid in a direction toward the conduit.
19 . The method of claim 17 wherein the projecting the fluid comprises directing the fluid toward the walls of the well.
20 . The method of claim 17 wherein the extending is also facilitated by a motorized conveyor.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
