A multilateral wellbore junction and a method for installing the junction

摘要

A multilateral wellbore junction, and method for installation, for preventing particulate entry to the flow system which comprises a thin walled sleeve 10 having a premachined window 12 which is aligned with a window 42 in the primary wellbore casing from which a lateral wellbore extends. A lateral liner 46 is disposed through the windows and into the lateral wellbore. The sleeve can be swaged into contact with the primary casing and the lateral liner can be sealed to the sl GB 2371580 SDO ABE VER=1.0310 DP N=2 A data dump probe 130 comprises a memory, a processor and a communication port for connection to a borehole logging tool 112. Data is downloaded from the logging tool and a copy is stored in the probe memory, the transfer of data being controlled by the processor. The copied data is transferred to a surface computer 118, either by physically moving the probe to the computer and connecting them via the probe's communication port, or by a radio frequency link 156.
