Methods and systems for orienting in a wellbore

A method for orienting a tubular string in a wellbore, the method comprising:

• lowering the tubular string within a casing string in a wellbore, wherein the tubular string comprises:
• a first tubular string portion and a second tubular string portion, wherein the first tubular string portion comprises a first tubular string opening and a first tubular aligning tool, wherein the second tubular string portion comprises a second tubular string opening and a second tubular aligning tool, and wherein the first tubular string portion is disposed below the second tubular string portion;
• engaging the first tubular aligning tool with an inclined surface of a first casing aligning tool while lowering the tubular string;
• rotating the first tubular string portion by the engagement of the first tubular aligning tool with the inclined surface of the first casing aligning tool in response to engaging the first tubular aligning tool with the first casing aligning tool while lowering the tubular string;
• rotationally aligning the first tubular string opening with a first casing string opening based on the rotating;
• retaining the first tubular string portion in an axial alignment and a rotational alignment with respect to the first casing opening;
• lowering the second tubular string portion relative to the first tubular string portion;
• engaging the second tubular aligning tool with an inclined surface of a second casing aligning tool while lowering the second tubular string portion relative to the first tubular string portion;
• rotating the second tubular string portion by the engagement of the second tubular aligning tool with the inclined surface of the second casing aligning tool in response to engaging the second tubular aligning tool with the second casing aligning tool while lowering the second tubular string portion and while the first tubular string portion is retained in position;
• rotationally aligning the second tubular string opening with a second casing string opening based on rotating the second tubular string portion;
• and
• retaining the second tubular string portion in an axial alignment and a rotational alignment with respect to the second casing string opening.

A system for orienting a tubular string with a wellbore, the system comprising:

• a casing string disposed in the wellbore, wherein the casing string comprises:
• a casing string bore defined by the casing string,
• a first casing string opening and a second casing string opening, wherein the first casing string opening is further away from a wellbore surface than the second casing string opening, and
• a first casing aligning tool having a first inclined surface declining to a lowest point and a second casing aligning tool coupled to the casing string;
• a first tubular string portion coupled to a second tubular string portion, wherein the first tubular string portion and the second tubular string portion are configured to be displaced into the casing string bore,
• wherein the first tubing string portion comprises:
• a first tubular string opening configured to radially align with the first casing string opening,
• a first tubular aligning tool configured to engage with the first casing aligning tool and move along the first inclined surface toward the lowest point of the first inclined surface upon being lowered into the wellbore to thereby rotate the first tubular string portion to at least partially align the first tubular string opening with the first casing string opening, and
• a first holding device configured to prevent axial displacement of the first tubing string portion when the first tubing string opening is at least partially aligned with the first casing string opening.
