Abstract

See full text

A completion method and assembly includes a packer extending along a pipe that is positioned in a wellbore to create an annulus between the pipe and the wellbore, the packer having a sealing element with first and second ends. A shunt tube is positioned adjacent the sealing element and extends from at least the first end to the second end of the sealing element to form a bypass through which a volume of proppant can flow. A fluid chamber is disposed to release a setting fluid into the shunt tube to mix with proppant therein and seal the shunt tube once proppant has flowed into the annulus. An injection assembly includes a fluid chamber configured to accommodate a fluid; a fluid control line fluidically coupled to the fluid chamber and the shunt tube; and an actuation device to force the fluid from the fluid chamber and into the shunt tube.
