System for injecting a substance into an annular space

1. A system for injecting a substance into an annular space surrounding a well tubular with an assembly to be inserted into the well tubular, the assembly comprising:

a rotating and cutting part capable of making a hole by rotating the rotating and cutting part and cutting through the well tubular;

a substance chamber for storage of the substance;

a substance injecting part capable of injecting the substance into the annular space and creating at least one barrier made from the substance on the outside of the well tubular,

wherein the rotating and cutting part comprises a chamber with a first end and a second end and having a wall surrounding the chamber and including at least one entrance for the substance at the first end and including an exit for delivery through the well tubular and into the annular space at the second end.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the wall is adapted to conduct the substance into the annular space.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first end comprises two separate entrances for the substance.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the assembly comprises a transmitter for receiving and transmitting data from or to a control unit.

5. The system of claim 4 wherein the control unit is disposed on the surface.

6. The system of claim 4 wherein the control unit is disposed subsurface.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the rotating and cutting part comprises a first sleeve and a second sleeve, the first and second sleeves being interconnected, the first sleeve being connected to a rotating member and having a part adapted for cutting engagement with the well tubular, the two sleeves being interconnected such that a torque applied by the rotating member to the first sleeve provides an axial displacement of the first sleeve for cutting engagement with the well tubular.

8. A system for injecting a substance into an annular space surrounding a well tubular with an assembly to be inserted into the well tubular, the assembly comprising:

a cutting part capable of making a hole by rotating and cutting through the well tubular, the cutting part comprising:

a chamber with a first end and a second end and having a wall surrounding the chamber and including at least one entrance for the substance at the first end and including an exit for delivery through the well tubular and into the annular space at the second end;

a main tool body; and

a first and second sleeve, the first and second sleeves being interconnected by threads and having a common center axis;

the first sleeve being connected to a rotating member and having a part adapted for cutting engagement with the well tubular;

the second sleeve being connected to the main tool body by a frictional connection such that a torque applied to the second sleeve and exceeding a given value provides the second sleeve to rotate about the center axis;

wherein a torque applied by the rotating member to the first sleeve provides an axial force and thereby axial displacement of the first sleeve for cutting engagement with the well tubular, the axial force being essentially constant and restricted by the frictional connection such that the second sleeve rotates together with the first sleeve about their common center axis when the axial force exceeds a given value;

a substance chamber for storage of the substance; and

a substance injecting part capable of injecting the substance into the annular space.

9. The system of claim 8 wherein the assembly comprises means to control and measure the displacement of the first sleeve.

10. The system of claim 7 wherein the torque applied by the rotating member to the first sleeve further provides an axial force, and wherein the first and second sleeves are further adapted such that the second sleeve rotates together with the first sleeve about their common center axis when the axial force exceeds a given value.

11. A method of injecting a substance into an annular space surrounding a well bore with an assembly to be inserted into a well tubular and having a hole cutting part capable of rotating and cutting a hole through the well tubular, a substance chamber for storage of the substance, and a substance injecting part capable of injecting the substance through substance conducting means within the cutting part and into the annular space,

the method comprising the successive steps of

inserting the assembly into the well tubular;

forming a passage through the well tubular and into the annular space by rotating the hole cutting part and cutting a hole through the well tubular and thereby establishing a substance channel into the annular space;

injecting the substance through the passage into the annular space surrounding the well tubular to create at least one barrier on the outside of the well tubular; and

retracting the assembly, thereby providing a substantially free passage within the well tubular.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the step of injecting the substance into the annular space comprises simultaneously injecting a reactant into the substance conducting means and thereby injecting a mix of reactants into the annular space.

13. The method of claim 11 , wherein the step of injecting the substance into the annular space includes flushing the substance conducting means with a non-hardenable substance.

14. The method of claim 11 , wherein the step of forming a passage through the well tubular comprises applying torque by a rotating member to a first sleeve to provide an axial force and thereby axial displacement of the first sleeve for cutting engagement with the well tubular.
