Abstract
A downhole system for use in a wellbore that includes a work string having a downhole end; a setting sleeve coupled with the downhole end; and a downhole tool engaged with the setting sleeve during run-in, the downhole tool further including a mandrel, a first slip, a first cone, a sealing element, and a lower sleeve coupled with the mandrel.
Claims16
A downhole system for use in a wellbore, the downhole system comprising:
- a work string comprising a downhole end, and a setting tool;
- a setting sleeve coupled with the downhole end;
- and
- a downhole tool engaged with the setting sleeve during run-in, the downhole tool further comprising:
- a mandrel made of a composite material, the mandrel further comprising:
- a distal end;
- a proximate end comprising a set of threads;
- and a mandrel outer surface;
- a bearing plate disposed around the mandrel;
- a first slip disposed around the mandrel proximate to the distal end, the first slip further comprising:
- a first slip body having a one-piece configuration;
- a first slip outer surface;
- and
- at least one lateral groove in the first slip body that is defined by a depth that extends from the first slip outer surface to a first slip inner surface;
- a first cone disposed around the mandrel, and proximate to a first side of the first slip;
- a second slip disposed around the mandrel;
- a second cone disposed around the mandrel, and proximate to a first side of the second slip;
- a sealing element disposed around the mandrel, and between the first cone and the second cone;
- and
- a lower sleeve disposed around the mandrel, and proximate to a second side of the first slip, wherein the lower sleeve is coupled with the mandrel outer surface at the distal end,
- wherein the setting sleeve comprises a set of linear channels disposed in an outer surface of the setting sleeve, wherein an at least one channel of the set of channels extends from a first sleeve end to a second sleeve end, and wherein the setting tool comprises an adapter coupled with the set of threads.
