A reservoir production assembly for disposition within a wellbore that extends into a subterranean formation is disclosed. The reservoir production assembly includes a flow diverter including a cavity. The flow diverter defines a reservoir fluid receiver, a reservoir fluid-conducting space, a reservoir fluid discharge communicator, a gas-depleted reservoir fluid receiver, a gas-depleted reservoir fluid-conducting space, and a gas-depleted reservoir fluid discharge communicator. The reservoir production assembly includes a downhole-disposed reservoir fluid-supplying conductor for receiving the reservoir fluid from a downhole wellbore space and conducting the received reservoir fluid to the reservoir fluid receiver, and an on-off tool effecting releasable coupling of the reservoir fluid receiver of the flow diverter to the downhole-disposed reservoir fluid-supplying conductor with effect that fluid coupling of the flow diverter to the downhole-disposed reservoir fluid-supplying conductor is effected. At least a portion of the on-off tool is disposed within the cavity of the flow diverter.
An apparatus and methods for applying an inner coating to a wellbore screen are described. The apparatus comprises a support for the wellbore screen, an elongate injector for injecting coating material into the inner bore of the wellbore screen, and a driver for positioning the elongate injector into the inner bore and moving the elongate injector through the inner bore to introduce coating material to the inner bore. The elongate injector has a supported end, a distal end, and a coating material delivery line extending through the elongate injector from a coating material supply to a port at the distal end.

A wellbore screen including: an apertured base pipe; an intermediate filtering layer including a plurality of metal fibers wrapped helically around the apertured base pipe and a fluid tracing filament wrapped helically about the apertured base pipe, the fluid tracing filament including a filament structure and a tracer carried by the filament structure, the tracer being entrainable produced fluids in a wellbore environment; and an outer apertured shell over the intermediate layer. A method for producing a wellbore screen, the method comprising: forming a filter tube by wrapping an intermediate layer, including a metal wool fiber strip and a fluid tracing filament, about an apertured base pipe in a helical arrangement under tension; positioning the filter tube within the long bore of an outer apertured sleeve; and securing the outer apertured sleeve and the filter tube together.

A wellbore screen includes a base pipe including a wall, an inner bore surface and an outer surface, an opening formed through the base pipe wall and a filter cartridge mounted in the opening. In one aspect, the wellbore screen includes an impermeable layer relative to the opening and the impermeable layer may be selected to be substantially impermeable when in a closed position in the opening to passage of fluids through the opening and, the impermeable layer is at least one of (i) selectively openable to permit fluid flow through the opening and (ii) selectively closeable when triggered to close the opening. In another aspect, the opening may include a tapering diameter from one end to the other and the filter cartridge may include an outer diameter formed to reversibly and substantially correspondingly taper relative to the opening to permit a taper lock fit in the opening.
