Downhole stroking tool
A downhole stroking tool ( 1 ) comprising a housing ( 2 ), a first chamber ( 3 ), a first tool part ( 4 ) comprising a pump unit ( 5 ) providing pressurized fluid to the chamber, a shaft ( 6 ) penetrating the chamber, and a first piston ( 7 ) dividing the first chamber into a first chamber section ( 8, 8 a ) and a second chamber section ( 9, 9 b ). The piston is connected to or forms part of the housing which forms part of a second tool part ( 10 ) and is slidable in relation to the shaft so that the housing moves in relation to the shaft, the shaft being stationary in relation to the pump unit during pressurization of the first or the second chamber section, thereby generating a pressure on the piston, wherein the shaft is fixedly connected with the first tool part, and wherein the housing is slidable in relation to the first tool part and overlaps the first tool part.
1. A downhole stroking tool for providing an axial force in an axial direction, comprising:
a housing,
a first chamber,
a first tool part comprising a pump unit providing pressurised fluid to the chamber,
a shaft penetrating the chamber, and
a first piston dividing the first chamber into a first chamber section and a second chamber section,
wherein the piston is connected to or forms part of the housing which forms part of a second tool part and is slidable in relation to the shaft so that the housing moves in relation to the shaft, the shaft being stationary in relation to the pump unit during pressurisation of the first or the second chamber section, thereby generating a pressure on the piston, wherein the shaft is fixedly connected with the first tool part, and wherein the housing is slidable in relation to the first tool part and overlaps the first tool part.
2. The downhole stroking tool according to claim 1 , wherein the first chamber section and the second chamber section are fluidly connected to the pump unit.
3. The downhole stroking tool according to claim 1 , further comprising a pressure intensifier arranged downstream of the pump unit to increase the pressure of a fluid before the fluid is fed to the chamber.
4. The downhole stroking tool according to claim 1 , the shaft having a through-bore for allowing an electrical conductor to run through the shaft.
5. The downhole stroking tool according to claim 1 , further comprising a connector configured to connect with an operational tool.
6. The downhole stroking tool according to claim 1 , wherein the housing comprises a first end part overlapping the first tool part.
7. The downhole stroking tool according to claim 1 , further comprising an operational tool connected with the housing.
8. The downhole stroking tool according to claim 7 , wherein the operational tool is electrically powered.
9. The downhole stroking tool according to claim 1 , wherein the housing has an inner diameter substantially corresponding to an outer diameter of the first tool part.
10. The downhole stroking tool according to claim 1 , wherein the shaft and/or the housing comprise(s) one or more fluid channels for providing fluid to and/or from the chamber during pressurisation of the first or the second chamber section, thereby generating a pressure on the piston.
11. The downhole stroking tool according to claim 1 , wherein the housing transfers the axial force.
12. The downhole stroking tool according to claim 1 , further comprising a second chamber divided by a second piston.
13. The downhole stroking tool according to claim 10 , wherein the first and second chambers are comprised in the housing.
14. The downhole stroking tool according to claim 10 , wherein the shaft comprises an intermediate part dividing the first and the second chamber.
15. The downhole stroking tool according to claim 1 , further comprising an anchoring section having projectable fixation units for fixating the downhole stroking tool in a well.
16. The downhole stroking tool according claim 15 , wherein the anchoring section is connected to the first tool part and is configured to anchor the first tool part in a well.
17. The downhole system comprising a downhole stroking tool according to claim 1 and a driving unit, such as a downhole tractor, for propelling the system forward in a well.
18. Use of the downhole stroking tool according to claim 1 for pulling a plug in a well.
