Methods and systems for orienting a tool in a wellbore
Abstract:
Methods and assemblies that can be used to orient a second pipe with respect to a first pipe in a wellbore are disclosed. The first pipe may be a casing string that includes one or more recessed latch couplings, and the second pipe may be a tubing string that includes one more complementary radially extendable latch keys that may be received within the latch couplings. The tubing string may include one or more switches associated with the latch keys that are actuated when the latch keys are received within the latch couplings. The actuation of the switches is communicated to an operator at the surface via control lines within the tubing string.
