Self-orienting selective lockable assembly to regulate subsurface depth and positioning

A system comprising:

• one or more tubulars positioned within a wellbore, wherein a circumferential latch profile and an orientation profile is disposed on an inner surface of the one or more tubulars;
• and
• a downhole tool comprising:
• a selective lockable latch tool comprising,
• a cylindrical housing having one or more circumferential radially compressible protrusions disposed on an external surface of the cylindrical housing, wherein the one or more circumferential radially compressible protrusions are to engage the circumferential latch profile when the downhole tool is positioned within the wellbore;
• a mandrel within the cylindrical housing and defining an annular volume between an inner surface of the cylindrical housing and an outer surface of the mandrel;
• a circumferential support element at least partially within the annular volume and movable between an unlocked position and a locked position, wherein, in the locked position, the circumferential support element prevents inwards compression of the one or more circumferential radially compressible protrusions of the cylindrical housing;
• a dog housing coupled to the cylindrical housing;
• and
• one or more circumferential dogs at least partially within the dog housing, wherein the one or more circumferential dogs are radially compressible and axially movable;
• and
• an orientation tool coupled with the selective lockable latch tool and having an orientation key that is to engage the orientation profile when the downhole tool is positioned within the wellbore.

A method comprising:

• lowering a well tool through one or more tubular housings positioned within a well, wherein a circumferential support element is secured in an unlocked position in an annular volume within a cylindrical housing of the well tool by a first releasable connection element;
• in response to an orientation tool of the well tool engaging with an orientation profile of a first tubular housing of the one or more tubular housings within the well, applying a first axial upward load on the well tool to engage a movable circumferential dog attached to the well tool with an internal shoulder on an inner surface of the one or more tubular housings within the well;
• applying a second axial upward load on the well tool until the first releasable connection element releases;
• and
• applying an axial run-in load on the well tool until a second releasable connection element secures the circumferential support element in a locked position in the annular volume where the circumferential support element supports a circumferential radially compressible protrusion of the cylindrical housing against compression.
