Claims57
A system usable with a well, comprising:
- a structure having a region adapted to receive a tubing hanger interface;
- and
- at least one communication connection to communicate electricity into the well, the connection penetrating the structure below the region to receive the tubing hanger interface.
A method usable with a well, comprising:
- installing a tubing hanger interface in a structure of the well;
- and
- penetrating the structure below the tubing hanger interface to establish at least one communication to communicate electricity into the well.
A power system for providing power and communications to downhole devices in a well having a tubing hanger interface, comprising:
- an external power source;
- a downhole structure having external electrical contacts connected therethrough the downhole structure to internal electrical contacts, the external electrical contacts are in communication with the external power source and are located below the tubing hanger interface;
- and
- a power structure having outer electrical contacts in communication with inner electrical contacts, the outer electrical contacts adapted for communication with the internal electrical contacts of the downhole structure, and the inner electrical contacts adapted to supply power to downhole devices.
A system usable with a well, comprising:
- a structure having a region adapted to receive a tubing hanger interface;
- and
- at least one communication connection to communicate a chemical into the well, the connection penetrating the structure below the region to receive the tubing hanger interface.
A method usable with a well, comprising:
- installing a tubing hanger interface in a structure of the well;
- and
- penetrating the structure below the tubing hanger interface to establish at least one communication connection to communicate a chemical into the well.
A system usable with a well, comprising:
- a structure having a region adapted to receive a tubing hanger interface and having an opening penetrating the structure below the region;
- and
- a conduit received in the opening.
A method usable with a well, comprising:
- installing a tubing hanger interface in a structure of the well;
- and
- penetrating the structure to establish an opening below the tubing hanger interface;
- and
- receiving a conduit in the opening.
