Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a downhole cleaning system for cleaning an element inside a casing in a wellbore comprising well fluid having a wellbore pressure, comprising the casing, a cleaning tool having a longitudinal direction and comprising a rotatable nozzle head having a plurality of nozzles, a tool housing having an inlet being in fluid communication with the nozzles for letting well fluid into the tool, a flow hindering element arranged on an outside of the housing dividing the tool in a first and a second tool part and dividing the casing in a first and a second casing part and a rotatable shaft connecting the nozzle head with the housing. Furthermore, the invention relates to a wireline cleaning tool and to a cleaning method.
  • valves are open and others closed.
  • such valves may get stuck due to precipitation of scales and other particles accumulated on the valve so that the valve is blocked.
  • Known cleaning tools require the presence of coiled tubing on the rig or vessel in order to clean a valve in a casing within a wellbore.
  • coiled tubing is not always situated on the rig or vessel and therefore needs to be transported to the rig or vessel.

  • the well fluid travels in through the inlet and out through the nozzle head, illustrated with arrows.
  • the wireline cleaning tool 10 is submerged into the casing 3 in the well and a flow hindering element 16 arranged on an outside 17 of the housing 14 is set or inflated so that it divides the casing 3 in a first 20 and a second casing part 21 .

  • the second part of the casing 21 has a substantially lower well fluid pressure so that the high pressurised well fluid in the first part 20 can be ejected as jets or beams in the well fluid in the second part of the casing.
  • the casing is used as the coiled tubing or drill pipe in order to provide the nozzles with high pressurised fluid; however, the fluid jetted from the nozzles is not a special cleaning fluid but merely the well fluid surrounding the tool.
