BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE 
     Field of the Disclosure 
       [0001]    The present disclosure generally relates to a telemetry operated running tool. 
       Description of the Related Art 
       [0002]    A wellbore is formed to access hydrocarbon bearing formations, e.g. crude oil and/or natural gas, by the use of drilling. Drilling is accomplished by utilizing a drill bit that is mounted on the end of a tubular string, such as a drill string. To drill within the wellbore to a predetermined depth, the drill string is often rotated by a top drive or rotary table on a surface platform or rig, and/or by a downhole motor mounted towards the lower end of the drill string. After drilling to a predetermined depth, the drill string and drill bit are removed and a section of casing is lowered into the wellbore. An annulus is thus formed between the string of casing and the formation. The casing string is cemented into the wellbore by circulating cement into the annulus defined between the outer wall of the casing and the borehole. The combination of cement and casing strengthens the wellbore and facilitates the isolation of certain areas of the formation behind the casing for the production of hydrocarbons. 
         [0003]    It is common to employ more than one string of casing or liner in a wellbore. In this respect, the well is drilled to a first designated depth with a drill bit on a drill string. The drill string is removed. A first string of casing is then run into the wellbore and set in the drilled out portion of the wellbore, and cement is circulated into the annulus behind the casing string. Next, the well is drilled to a second designated depth, and a second string of casing or liner, is run into the drilled out portion of the wellbore. If the second string is a liner string, the liner is set at a depth such that the upper portion of the second string of casing overlaps the lower portion of the first string of casing. The liner string may then be hung off of the existing casing. The second casing or liner string is then cemented. This process is typically repeated with additional casing or liner strings until the well has been drilled to total depth. In this manner, wells are typically formed with two or more strings of casing/liner of an ever-decreasing diameter. 
         [0004]    A running tool is typically used to deploy a liner string into the wellbore. The running tool may also be used to deploy a casing string into a subsea wellbore. The running tool is used to releasably connect the liner string to a string of drill pipe for deployment into the wellbore. Once the liner string has been deployed to the desired depth and a hanger thereof set against a previously installed casing string, the running tool is then operated to release the liner string from the drill pipe string. 
         [0005]    Running tools have typically been operated by over pull or pressure. There are a few running tools that are operated by left hand torque but this is an unfavorable design because when rotating to the left, any right hand threaded connections can be loosened unintentionally. Pressure operated running tools use a pump or dropped ball and seat; but, sometimes the ball doesn&#39;t land onto the seat or doesn&#39;t seal well enough to obtain the necessary pressure for operation of the running tool. 
       SUMMARY OF THE DISCLOSURE 
       [0006]    The present disclosure generally relates to a telemetry operated running tool. In one embodiment, a running tool for deploying a tubular string into a wellbore includes a tubular body and a latch for releasably connecting the tubular string to the body. The latch includes a longitudinal fastener for engaging a longitudinal profile of the tubular string and a torsional fastener for engaging a torsional profile of the tubular string. The running tool further includes a lock movable between a locked position and an unlocked position and the lock keeps the latch engaged in the locked position. The running tool further includes an actuator operable to at least move the lock from the locked position to the unlocked position and an electronics package in communication with the actuator for operating the actuator in response to receiving a command signal. 
         [0007]    In another embodiment, a method of hanging an inner tubular string from an outer tubular string cemented in a wellbore includes running the inner tubular string and a deployment assembly into the wellbore using a deployment string. A running tool of the deployment assembly longitudinally and torsionally fastens the liner string to the deployment string. The method further includes: plugging a bore of the deployment assembly; hanging the inner tubular string from the outer tubular string by pressurizing the plugged bore; and after hanging the inner tubular string, sending a command signal to the running tool, thereby unlocking or releasing the running tool. 
         [0008]    In another embodiment, a running tool for deploying a tubular string into a wellbore includes a tubular body and a latch for releasably connecting the tubular string to the body. The latch includes a longitudinal fastener for engaging a longitudinal profile of the tubular string and a torsional fastener for engaging a torsional profile of the tubular string. The running tool further includes: a release operable to disengage the longitudinal fastener from the longitudinal profile of the tubular string; an actuator operable to engage the release with the longitudinal fastener; and an electronics package in communication with the actuator for operating the actuator in response to receiving a command signal.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
       [0015]      FIGS. 1A-1C  illustrate a drilling system in a liner deployment mode, according to one embodiment of this disclosure. The drilling system  1  may include a mobile offshore drilling unit (MODU)  1   m , such as a semi-submersible, a drilling rig  1   r , a fluid handling system  1   h , a fluid transport system it, a pressure control assembly (PCA)  1   p , and a workstring  9 . 
         [0016]    The MODU  1   m  may carry the drilling rig  1   r  and the fluid handling system  1   h  aboard and may include a moon pool, through which drilling operations are conducted. The semi-submersible MODU  1   m  may include a lower barge hull which floats below a surface (aka waterline)  2   s  of sea  2  and is, therefore, less subject to surface wave action. Stability columns (only one shown) may be mounted on the lower barge hull for supporting an upper hull above the waterline. The upper hull may have one or more decks for carrying the drilling rig  1   r  and fluid handling system  1   h . The MODU  1   m  may further have a dynamic positioning system (DPS) (not shown) or be moored for maintaining the moon pool in position over a subsea wellhead  10 . 
         [0017]    Alternatively, the MODU may be a drill ship. Alternatively, a fixed offshore drilling unit or a non-mobile floating offshore drilling unit may be used instead of the MODU. Alternatively, the wellbore may be subsea having a wellhead located adjacent to the waterline and the drilling rig may be a located on a platform adjacent the wellhead. Alternatively, the wellbore may be subterranean and the drilling rig located on a terrestrial pad. 
         [0018]    The drilling rig  1   r  may include a derrick  3 , a floor  4 , a top drive  5 , a cementing head  7 , and a hoist. The top drive  5  may include a motor for rotating  8  the workstring  9 . The top drive motor may be electric or hydraulic. A frame of the top drive  5  may be linked to a rail (not shown) of the derrick  3  for preventing rotation thereof during rotation of the workstring  9  and allowing for vertical movement of the top drive with a traveling block lit of the hoist. The frame of the top drive  5  may be suspended from the derrick  3  by the traveling block lit. The quill may be torsionally driven by the top drive motor and supported from the frame by bearings. The top drive may further have an inlet connected to the frame and in fluid communication with the quill. The traveling block lit may be supported by wire rope  11   r  connected at its upper end to a crown block  11   c . The wire rope  11   r  may be woven through sheaves of the blocks  11   c,t  and extend to drawworks  12  for reeling thereof, thereby raising or lowering the traveling block lit relative to the derrick  3 . The drilling rig  1   r  may further include a drill string compensator (not shown) to account for heave of the MODU  1   m . The drill string compensator may be disposed between the traveling block  11   t  and the top drive  5  (aka hook mounted) or between the crown block  11   c  and the derrick  3  (aka top mounted). 
         [0019]    Alternatively, a Kelly and rotary table may be used instead of the top drive. 
         [0020]    In the deployment mode, an upper end of the workstring  9  may be connected to the top drive quill, such as by threaded couplings. The workstring  9  may include a liner deployment assembly (LDA)  9   d  and a deployment string, such as joints of drill pipe  9   p  ( FIG. 2A ) connected together, such as by threaded couplings. An upper end of the LDA  9   d  may be connected a lower end of the drill pipe  9   p , such as by threaded couplings. The LDA  9   d  may also be connected to a liner string  15 . The liner string  15  may include a polished bore receptacle (PBR)  15   r , a packer  15   p , a liner hanger  15   h , joints of liner  15   j , a landing collar  15   c , and a reamer shoe  15   s . The liner string members may each be connected together, such as by threaded couplings. The reamer shoe  15   s  may be rotated  8  by the top drive  5  via the workstring  9 . 
         [0021]    Alternatively, drilling fluid may be injected into the liner string during deployment thereof. Alternatively, drilling fluid may be injected into the liner string and the liner string  15  may include a drillable drill bit (not shown) instead of the reamer shoe  15   s  and the liner string may be drilled into the lower formation  27   b , thereby extending the wellbore  24  while deploying the liner string. 
         [0022]    Once liner deployment has concluded, the workstring  9  may be disconnected from the top drive and the cementing head  7  may be inserted and connected therebetween. The cementing head  7  may include an isolation valve  6 , an actuator swivel  7   h , a cementing swivel  7   c , and one or more plug launchers, such as a dart launcher  7   d  and a ball launcher  7   b . The isolation valve  6  may be connected to a quill of the top drive  5  and an upper end of the actuator swivel  7   h , such as by threaded couplings. An upper end of the workstring  9  may be connected to a lower end of the cementing head  7 , such as by threaded couplings. 
         [0023]    The cementing swivel  7   c  may include a housing torsionally connected to the derrick  3 , such as by bars, wire rope, or a bracket (not shown). The torsional connection may accommodate longitudinal movement of the swivel  7   c  relative to the derrick  3 . The cementing swivel  7   c  may further include a mandrel and bearings for supporting the housing from the mandrel while accommodating rotation  8  of the mandrel. An upper end of the mandrel may be connected to a lower end of the actuator swivel, such as by threaded couplings. The cementing swivel  7   c  may further include an inlet formed through a wall of the housing and in fluid communication with a port formed through the mandrel and a seal assembly for isolating the inlet-port communication. The cementing mandrel port may provide fluid communication between a bore of the cementing head and the housing inlet. The seal assembly may include one or more stacks of V-shaped seal rings, such as opposing stacks, disposed between the mandrel and the housing and straddling the inlet-port interface. The actuator swivel  7   h  may be similar to the cementing swivel  7   c  except that the housing may have two inlets in fluid communication with respective passages formed through the mandrel. The mandrel passages may extend to respective outlets of the mandrel for connection to respective hydraulic conduits (only one shown) for operating respective hydraulic actuators of the launchers  7   b,d . The actuator swivel inlets may be in fluid communication with a hydraulic power unit (HPU, not shown). 
         [0024]    Alternatively, the seal assembly may include rotary seals, such as mechanical face seals. 
         [0025]    The dart launcher  7   d  may include a body, a diverter, a canister, a latch, and the actuator. The body may be tubular and may have a bore therethrough. To facilitate assembly, the body may include two or more sections connected together, such as by threaded couplings. An upper end of the body may be connected to a lower end of the actuator swivel, such as by threaded couplings and a lower end of the body may be connected to the workstring  9 . The body may further have a landing shoulder formed in an inner surface thereof. The canister and diverter may each be disposed in the body bore. The diverter may be connected to the body, such as by threaded couplings. The canister may be longitudinally movable relative to the body. The canister may be tubular and have ribs formed along and around an outer surface thereof. Bypass passages may be formed between the ribs. The canister may further have a landing shoulder formed in a lower end thereof corresponding to the body landing shoulder. The diverter may be operable to deflect fluid received from a cement line  14  away from a bore of the canister and toward the bypass passages. A release plug, such as dart  43   d , may be disposed in the canister bore. 
         [0026]    The latch may include a body, a plunger, and a shaft. The latch body may be connected to a lug formed in an outer surface of the launcher body, such as by threaded couplings. The plunger may be longitudinally movable relative to the latch body and radially movable relative to the launcher body between a capture position and a release position. The plunger may be moved between the positions by interaction, such as a jackscrew, with the shaft. The shaft may be longitudinally connected to and rotatable relative to the latch body. The actuator may be a hydraulic motor operable to rotate the shaft relative to the latch body. 
         [0027]    The ball launcher  7   b  may include a body, a plunger, an actuator, and a setting plug, such as a ball  43   b , loaded therein. The ball launcher body may be connected to another lug formed in an outer surface of the dart launcher body, such as by threaded couplings. The ball  43   b  may be disposed in the plunger for selective release and pumping downhole through the drill pipe  9   p  to the LDA  9   d . The plunger may be movable relative to the respective dart launcher body between a captured position and a release position. The plunger may be moved between the positions by the actuator. The actuator may be hydraulic, such as a piston and cylinder assembly. 
         [0028]    Alternatively, the actuator swivel and launcher actuators may be pneumatic or electric. Alternatively, the launcher actuators may be linear, such as piston and cylinders. 
         [0029]    In operation, when it is desired to launch one of the plugs  43   b,d , the HPU may be operated to supply hydraulic fluid to the appropriate launcher actuator via the actuator swivel  7   h . The selected launcher actuator may then move the plunger to the release position (not shown). If the dart launcher  7   d  is selected, the canister and dart  43   d  may then move downward relative to the housing until the landing shoulders engage. Engagement of the landing shoulders may close the canister bypass passages, thereby forcing fluid to flow into the canister bore. The fluid may then propel the dart  43   d  from the canister bore into a lower bore of the housing and onward through the workstring  9 . If the ball launcher  7   b  was selected, the plunger may carry the ball  43   b  into the launcher housing to be propelled into the drill pipe  9   p  by the fluid. 
         [0030]    The fluid transport system  1   t  may include an upper marine riser package (UMRP)  16   u , a marine riser  17 , a booster line  18   b , and a choke line  18   c . The riser  17  may extend from the PCA  1   p  to the MODU  1   m  and may connect to the MODU via the UMRP  16   u . The UMRP  16   u  may include a diverter  19 , a flex joint  20 , a slip (aka telescopic) joint  21 , and a tensioner  22 . The slip joint  21  may include an outer barrel connected to an upper end of the riser  17 , such as by a flanged connection, and an inner barrel connected to the flex joint  20 , such as by a flanged connection. The outer barrel may also be connected to the tensioner  22 , such as by a tensioner ring. 
         [0031]    The flex joint  20  may also connect to the diverter  21 , such as by a flanged connection. The diverter  21  may also be connected to the rig floor  4 , such as by a bracket. The slip joint  21  may be operable to extend and retract in response to heave of the MODU  1   m  relative to the riser  17  while the tensioner  22  may reel wire rope in response to the heave, thereby supporting the riser  17  from the MODU  1   m  while accommodating the heave. The riser  17  may have one or more buoyancy modules (not shown) disposed therealong to reduce load on the tensioner  22 . 
         [0032]    The PCA  1   p  may be connected to the wellhead  10  located adjacent to a floor  2   f  of the sea  2 . A conductor string  23  may be driven into the seafloor  2   f . The conductor string  23  may include a housing and joints of conductor pipe connected together, such as by threaded couplings. Once the conductor string  23  has been set, a subsea wellbore  24  may be drilled into the seafloor  2   f  and a casing string  25  may be deployed into the wellbore. The casing string  25  may include a wellhead housing and joints of casing connected together, such as by threaded couplings. The wellhead housing may land in the conductor housing during deployment of the casing string  25 . The casing string  25  may be cemented  26  into the wellbore  24 . The casing string  25  may extend to a depth adjacent a bottom of the upper formation  27   u . The wellbore  24  may then be extended into the lower formation  27   b  using a pilot bit and underreamer (not shown). 
         [0033]    The upper formation  27   u  may be non-productive and a lower formation  27   b  may be a hydrocarbon-bearing reservoir. Alternatively, the lower formation  27   b  may be non-productive (e.g., a depleted zone), environmentally sensitive, such as an aquifer, or unstable. 
         [0034]    The PCA  1   p  may include a wellhead adapter  28   b , one or more flow crosses  29   u,m,b , one or more blow out preventers (BOPs)  30   a,u,b , a lower marine riser package (LMRP)  16   b , one or more accumulators, and a receiver  31 .

The flex joints  21 ,  32  may accommodate respective horizontal and/or rotational (aka pitch and roll) movement of the MODU  1   m  relative to the riser  17  and the riser relative to the PCA  1   p.    
         [0035]    Each of the connector  28   u  and wellhead adapter  28   b  may include one or more fasteners, such as dogs, for fastening the LMRP  16   b  to the BOPs  30   a,u,b  and the PCA  1   p  to an external profile of the wellhead housing, respectively. Each of the connector  28   u  and wellhead adapter  28   b  may further include a seal sleeve for engaging an internal profile of the respective receiver  31  and wellhead housing. Each of the connector  28   u  and wellhead adapter  28   b  may be in electric or hydraulic communication with the control pod and/or further include an electric or hydraulic actuator and an interface, such as a hot stab, so that a remotely operated subsea vehicle (ROV) (not shown) may operate the actuator for engaging the dogs with the external profile.

A booster manifold may also connect to the booster line lower end and have a prong connected to a respective branch of each flow cross  29   m,b . Shutoff valves may be disposed in respective prongs of the booster manifold. Alternatively, a separate kill line (not shown) may be connected to the branches of the flow crosses  29   m,b  instead of the booster manifold. An upper end of the booster line  18   b  may be connected to an outlet of a booster pump (not shown).

         [0038]    A pressure sensor may be connected to a second branch of the upper flow cross  29   u . Pressure sensors may also be connected to the choke line prongs between respective shutoff valves and respective flow cross second branches. Each pressure sensor may be in data communication with the control pod. The lines  18   b,c  and umbilical  33  may extend between the MODU  1   m  and the PCA  1   p  by being fastened to brackets disposed along the riser  17 . Each shutoff valve may be automated and have a hydraulic actuator (not shown) operable by the control pod.

The drilling fluid  47   m  may include a base liquid. The base liquid may be refined or synthetic oil, water, brine, or a water/oil emulsion. The drilling fluid  47   m  may further include solids dissolved or suspended in the base liquid, such as organophilic clay, lignite, and/or asphalt, thereby forming a mud. 
         [0041]    A first end of the return line  40  may be connected to the diverter outlet and a second end of the return line may be connected to an inlet of the shaker  36 . A lower end of the mud line  39  may be connected to an outlet of the mud pump  34  and an upper end of the mud line may be connected to the top drive inlet.

         [0042]    The tag launcher  44  may include a housing, a plunger, an actuator, and a magazine (not shown) having a plurality of wireless identification tags, such as radio frequency identification (RFID) tags loaded therein. A chambered RFID tag  45  may be disposed in the respective plunger for selective release and pumping downhole to communicate with the LDA  9   d . The plunger may be movable relative to the launcher housing between a captured position and a release position. The plunger may be moved between the positions by the actuator. The actuator may be hydraulic, such as a piston and cylinder assembly. 
         [0043]    Alternatively, the actuator may be electric or pneumatic. Alternatively, the actuator may be manual, such as a handwheel. Alternatively, the tag  45  may be manually launched by breaking a connection in the respective line. Alternatively, the plug launcher may be part of the cementing head. 
         [0044]    The workstring  9  may be rotated  8  by the top drive  5  and lowered by the traveling block  11   t , thereby reaming the liner string  15  into the lower formation  27   b . Drilling fluid in the wellbore  24  may be displaced through courses  15   e  of the reamer shoe  15   s , where the fluid may circulate cuttings away from the shoe and return the cuttings into a bore of the liner string  15 . The returns  47   r  (drilling fluid plus cuttings) may flow up the liner bore and into a bore of the LDA  9   d . The returns  47   r  may flow up the LDA bore and to a diverter valve  50  ( FIG. 2A ) thereof. The returns  47   r  may be diverted into an annulus  48  formed between the workstring  9 /liner string  15  and the casing string  25 /wellbore  24  by the diverter valve  50 . The returns  47   r  may exit the wellbore  24  and flow into an annulus formed between the riser  17  and the drill pipe  9   p  via an annulus of the LMRP  16   b , BOP stack, and wellhead  10 . The returns may exit the riser annulus and enter the return line  40  via an annulus of the UMRP  16   u  and the diverter  19 . The returns  47   r  may flow through the return line  40  and into the shale shaker inlet. The returns  47   r  may be processed by the shale shaker  36  to remove the cuttings.

The LDA  9   d  may include a diverter valve  50 , a junk bonnet  51 , a setting tool  52 , a running tool  53 , a stinger  54 , an upper packoff  55 , a spacer  56 , a release  57 , a lower packoff  58 , a catcher  59 , and a plug release system  60 . 
         [0046]    An upper end of the diverter valve  50  may be connected to a lower end the drill pipe  9   p  and a lower end of the diverter valve  50  may be connected to an upper end of the junk bonnet  51 , such as by threaded couplings. A lower end of the junk bonnet  51  may be connected to an upper end of the setting tool  52  and a lower end of the setting tool may be connected to an upper end of the running tool  53 , such as by threaded couplings. The running tool  53  may also be fastened to the packer  15   p . An upper end of the stinger  54  may be connected to a lower end of the running tool  53  and a lower end of the stringer may be connected to the release  57 , such as by threaded couplings. The stinger  54  may extend through the upper packoff  55 . The upper packoff  55  may be fastened to the packer  15   p . An upper end of the spacer  56  may be connected to a lower end of the upper packoff  55 , such as by threaded couplings. An upper end of the lower packoff  58  may be connected to a lower end of the spacer  56 , such as by threaded couplings. An upper end of the catcher  59  may be connected to a lower end of the lower packoff  58 , such as by threaded couplings. An upper end of the plug release system  60  may be connected to a lower end of the catcher  59  such as by threaded couplings. 
         [0047]    The diverter valve  50  may include a housing, a bore valve, and a port valve. The diverter housing may include two or more tubular sections (three shown) connected to each other, such as by threaded couplings. The diverter housing may have threaded couplings formed at each longitudinal end thereof for connection to the drill pipe  9   p  at an upper end thereof and the junk bonnet  51  at a lower end thereof. The bore valve may be disposed in the housing. The bore valve may include a body and a valve member, such as a flapper, pivotally connected to the body and biased toward a closed position, such as by a torsion spring. The flapper may be oriented to allow downward fluid flow from the drill pipe  9   p  through the rest of the LDA  9   d  and prevent reverse upward flow from the LDA to the drill pipe  9   p . Closure of the flapper may isolate an upper portion of a bore of the diverter valve from a lower portion thereof. Although not shown, the body may have a fill orifice formed through a wall thereof and bypassing the flapper. 
         [0048]    The diverter port valve may include a sleeve and a biasing member, such as a compression spring. The sleeve may include two or more sections (four shown) connected to each other, such as by threaded couplings and/or fasteners. An upper section of the sleeve may be connected to a lower end of the bore valve body, such as by threaded couplings. Various interfaces between the sleeve and the housing and between the housing sections may be isolated by seals. The sleeve may be disposed in the housing and longitudinally movable relative thereto between an upper position (shown) and a lower position ( FIG. 4A ). The sleeve may be stopped in the lower position against an upper end of the lower housing section and in the upper position by the bore valve body engaging a lower end of the upper housing section. The mid housing section may have one or more flow ports and one or more equalization ports formed through a wall thereof. One of the sleeve sections may have one or more equalization slots formed therethrough providing fluid communication between a spring chamber formed in an inner surface of the mid housing section and the lower bore portion of the diverter valve  50 . 
         [0049]    One of the sleeve sections may cover the housing flow ports when the sleeve is in the lower position, thereby closing the housing flow ports and the sleeve section may be clear of the flow ports when the sleeve is in the upper position, thereby opening the flow ports. In operation, surge pressure of the returns  47   r  generated by deployment of the LDA  9   d  and liner string  15  into the wellbore may be exerted on a lower face of the closed flapper. The surge pressure may push the flapper upward, thereby also pulling the sleeve upward against the compression spring and opening the housing flow ports. The surging returns  47   r  may then be diverted through the open flow ports by the closed flapper. Once the liner string  15  has been deployed, dissipation of the surge pressure may allow the spring to return the sleeve to the lower position. 
         [0050]    The junk bonnet  51  may include a piston, a mandrel, and a release valve. Although shown as one piece, the mandrel may include two or more sections connected to each other, such as by threaded couplings and/or fasteners. The mandrel may have threaded couplings formed at each longitudinal end thereof for connection to the diverter valve  50  at an upper end thereof and the setting tool  52  at a lower end thereof. 
         [0051]    The junk piston may be an annular member having a bore formed therethrough. The mandrel may extend through the piston bore and the piston may be longitudinally movable relative thereto subject to entrapment between an upper shoulder of the mandrel and the release valve. The piston may carry one or more (two shown) outer seals and one or more (two shown) inner seals. Although not shown, the junk bonnet  51  may further include a split seal gland carrying each piston inner seal and a retainer for connecting the each seal gland to the piston, such as by a threaded connection. The inner seals may isolate an interface between the piston and the mandrel. 
         [0052]    The junk piston may also be disposed in a bore of the PBR  15   r  adjacent an upper end thereof and be longitudinally movable relative thereto. The outer seals may isolate an interface between the piston and the PBR  15   r , thereby forming an upper end of a buffer chamber  61 . A lower end of the buffer chamber  61  may be formed by a sealed interface between the upper packoff  55  and the packer  15   p . The buffer chamber  61  may be filled with a hydraulic fluid (not shown), such as fresh water or oil, such that the piston may be hydraulically locked in place. The buffer chamber  61  may prevent infiltration of debris from the wellbore  24  from obstructing operation of the LDA  9   d . The junk piston may include a fill passage extending longitudinally therethrough closed by a plug. The mandrel may include a bypass groove formed in and along an outer surface thereof. The bypass groove may create a leak path through the piston inner seals during removal of the LDA  9   d  from the liner string  15  to release the hydraulic lock. 
         [0053]    The release valve may include a shoulder formed in an outer surface of the mandrel, a closure member, such as a sleeve, and one or more biasing members, such as compression springs. Each spring may be carried on a rod and trapped between a stationary washer connected to the rod and a washer slidable along the rod. Each rod may be disposed in a pocket formed in an outer surface of the mandrel. The sleeve may have an inner lip trapped formed at a lower end thereof and extending into the pockets. The lower end may also be disposed against the slidable washer. The valve shoulder may have one or more one or more radial ports formed therethrough. The valve shoulder may carry a pair of seals straddling the radial ports and engaged with the valve sleeve, thereby isolating the mandrel bore from the buffer chamber  61 . 
         [0054]    The junk piston may have a torsion profile formed in a lower end thereof and the valve shoulder may have a complementary torsion profile formed in an upper end thereof. The piston may further have reamer blades formed in an upper surface thereof. The torsion profiles may mate during removal of the LDA  9   d  from the liner string  15 , thereby torsionally connecting the junk piston to the mandrel. The junk piston may then be rotated during removal to back ream debris accumulated adjacent an upper end of the PBR  15   r . The junk piston lower end may also seat on the valve sleeve during removal. Should the bypass groove be clogged, pulling of the drill pipe  9   p  may cause the valve sleeve to be pushed downward relative to the mandrel and against the springs to open the radial ports, thereby releasing the hydraulic lock. 
         [0055]    Alternatively, the junk piston may include two elongate hemi-annular segments connected together by fasteners and having gaskets clamped between mating faces of the segments to inhibit end-to-end fluid leakage. Alternatively, the junk piston may have a radial bypass port formed therethrough at a location between the upper and lower inner seals and the bypass groove may create the leak path through the lower inner seal to the bypass port. Alternatively, the valve sleeve may be fastened to the mandrel by one or more shearable fasteners. 
         [0056]    The setting tool  52  may include a body, a plurality of fasteners, such as dogs, and a rotor. Although shown as one piece, the body may include two or more sections connected to each other, such as by threaded couplings and/or fasteners. The body may have threaded couplings formed at each longitudinal end thereof for connection to the junk bonnet  51  at an upper end thereof and the running tool  53  at a lower end thereof. The body may have a recess formed in an outer surface thereof for receiving the rotor. The rotor may include a thrust ring, a thrust bearing, and a guide ring. The guide ring and thrust bearing may be disposed in the recess. The thrust bearing may have an inner race torsionally connected to the body, such as by press fit, an outer race torsionally connected to the thrust ring, such as by press fit, and a rolling element disposed between the races. The thrust ring may be connected to the guide ring, such as by one or more threaded fasteners. An upper portion of a pocket may be formed between the thrust ring and the guide ring. The setting tool  52  may further include a retainer ring connected to the body adjacent to the recess, such as by one or more threaded fasteners. A lower portion of the pocket may be formed between the body and the retainer ring. The dogs may be disposed in the pocket and spaced around the pocket. 
         [0057]    Each dog may be movable relative to the rotor and the body between a retracted position (shown) and an extended position. Each dog may be urged toward the extended position by a biasing member, such as a compression spring. Each dog may have an upper lip, a lower lip, and an opening. An inner end of each spring may be disposed against an outer surface of the guide ring and an outer portion of each spring may be received in the respective dog opening. The upper lip of each dog may be trapped between the thrust ring and the guide ring and the lower lip of each dog may be trapped between the retainer ring and the body. Each dog may also be trapped between a lower end of the thrust ring and an upper end of the retainer ring. Each dog may also be torsionally connected to the rotor, such as by a pivot fastener (not shown) received by the respective dog and the guide ring. 
         [0058]    An upper end of an actuation chamber  62  may be formed by the sealed interface between the upper packoff  55  and the packer  15   p . A lower end of the actuation chamber  62  may be formed by the sealed interface between the lower packoff  58  and the liner hanger  15   h . The actuation chamber  62  may be in fluid communication with the LDA bore (above a ball seat of the catcher  59 ) via one or more ports  56   p  formed through a wall of the spacer  56 . 
         [0059]    Alternatively, the plug release system  60  may include a seat for receiving the ball  43   b  and a cementing plug thereof may serve as the lower packoff, thereby obviating the need for the catcher  59  and the lower packoff  58 . 
         [0060]      FIGS. 3A and 3B  illustrate the running tool  53 . The running tool  53  may include a body  65 , a controller  66 , a lock  67 , a clutch  68 , and a latch  69 .

The antenna liner may have a flange formed at an upper end thereof. The antenna may be received in a recess formed in an inner surface of the inner body section  65   i . The flange may be threaded and engaged with a threaded shoulder formed in an inner surface of the inner body section  65   i , thereby connecting the antenna  74  to the body  61 . 
         [0066]    The third housing section  71   c  may have one or more (only one shown) pockets formed in an outer surface thereof.

The lead nut  87  may be engaged with the lead screw  77   d  and have a keyway formed in an inner surface thereof and engaged with the key  88 , thereby longitudinally connecting the lead nut and the thrust cap  77  while providing torsional freedom therebetween and torsionally connecting the lead nut and the body  65  while providing longitudinal freedom therebetween. A lower end of the clutch spring  84   u  may bear against an upper end of the gear  86 . The thrust cap  77  and gear  86  may initially be trapped between a lower end of the lock sleeve  81  and a shoulder formed in an outer surface of the key  88 .

The float nut  90  may be torsionally connected to the body  65  by having a keyway formed along an inner surface thereof and receiving the key  88 , thereby providing upward freedom of the float nut relative to the body while maintaining torsional connection thereto. Threads of the lead nut  87  and lead screw  77   d  may have a finer pitch, opposite hand, and greater number than threads of the float nut  90  and packer dogs to facilitate lesser (and opposite) longitudinal displacement per rotation of the lead nut relative to the float nut.

The cartridge may be disposed in a groove formed in an outer surface of the body. The cartridge may be connected to the body by entrapment between a shoulder of the groove and a lower end of the cap. The cartridge may include a gland and one or more (two shown) seal assemblies. The gland may have a groove formed in an outer surface thereof for receiving each seal assembly. Each seal assembly may include a seal, such as an S-ring, and a pair of anti-extrusion elements, such as garter springs. 
         [0079]    The body may also carry a seal, such as an O-ring, to isolate an interface formed between the body and the gland. The body may have one or more (two shown) equalization ports formed through a wall thereof located adjacently below the cartridge groove. The body may further have a stop shoulder formed in an inner surface thereof adjacent to the equalization ports. The lock sleeve may be disposed in a bore of the body and longitudinally movable relative thereto between a lower position and an upper position. The lock sleeve may be stopped in the upper position by engagement of an upper end thereof with the stop shoulder and held in the lower position by the detent. The body may have one or more openings formed therethrough and spaced around the body to receive a respective dog therein. 
         [0080]    Each dog may extend into a groove formed in an inner surface of the packer  15   p , thereby fastening a lower portion of the LDA  9   d  to the packer  15   p . Each dog may be radially movable relative to the body between an extended position (shown) and a retracted position. Each dog may be extended by interaction with a cam profile formed in an outer surface of the lock sleeve. The lock sleeve may further have a taper formed in a wall thereof and collet fingers extending from the taper to a lower end thereof. The detent may include the collet fingers and a complementary groove formed in an inner surface of the body. The detent may resist movement of the lock sleeve from the lower position to the upper position. 
         [0081]    The lower packoff  58  may include a body and one or more (two shown) seal assemblies. The body may have threaded couplings formed at each longitudinal end thereof for connection to the spacer  56  at an upper end thereof and the catcher  59  at a lower end thereof. Each seal assembly may include a directional seal, such as cup seal, an inner seal, a gland, and a washer. The inner seal may be disposed in an interface formed between the cup seal and the body. The gland may be fastened to the body, such as a by a snap ring. The cup seal may be connected to the gland, such as molding or press fit. An outer diameter of the cup seal may correspond to an inner diameter of the liner hanger  15   h , such as being slightly greater than the inner diameter. The cup seal may oriented to sealingly engage the liner hanger inner surface in response to pressure in the LDA bore being greater than pressure in the liner string bore (below the liner hanger). 
         [0082]    The catcher  59  may include a body and a seat for receiving the ball  43   b  and fastened to the body, such as by one or more shearable fasteners. The seat may also be linked to the body by a cam and follower. Once the ball  43   b  is caught, the seat may be released from the body by a threshold pressure exerted on the ball. Once released, the seat and ball  43   b  may swing relative to the body into a capture chamber, thereby reopening the LDA bore. 
         [0083]    The plug release system  60  may include a launcher and the cementing plug, such as a wiper plug. The launcher may include a housing having a threaded coupling formed at an upper end thereof for connection to the lower end of the catcher  59  and a portion of a latch. The wiper plug may include a body and a wiper seal. The body may have a portion of a latch, such as an outer profile, engaged with the launcher latch portion, thereby fastening the plug to the launcher. The plug body may further have a landing profile formed in an inner surface thereof. The landing profile may have a landing shoulder, an inner latch profile, and a seal bore for receiving the dart  43   d . The dart  43   d  may have a complementary landing shoulder, landing seal, and a fastener for engaging the inner latch profile, thereby connecting the dart and the wiper plug. The plug body may be made from a drillable material, such as cast iron, nonferrous metal or alloy, fiber reinforced composite, or engineering polymer, and the wiper seal may be made from an elastomer or elastomeric coploymer. 
         [0084]      FIGS. 4A-4F  illustrate operation of the running tool  53 . Once the liner string  15  has been advanced into the wellbore  24  by the workstring  9  to a desired deployment depth and the cementing head  7  has been installed, conditioner  100  may be circulated by the cement pump  13  through the valve  41  to prepare for pumping of cement slurry  81 . The ball launcher  7   b  may then be operated and the conditioner  100  may propel the ball  43   b  down the workstring  9  to the catcher  59 . Once the ball  43   b  lands in the catcher seat, pumping may continue to increase pressure in the LDA bore/actuation chamber  62 . 
         [0085]    Once a first threshold pressure is reached, a piston of the liner hanger  15   h  may set slips thereof against the casing  25 . Pumping may continue until a second threshold pressure is reached and the catcher seat is released from the catcher body, thereby resuming circulation of the conditioner  100 . Setting of the liner hanger  15   h  may be confirmed, such as by pulling on the workstring  9 . The tag launcher  44  may then be operated to launch the RFID tag  45  into the conditioner  100  and pumping continued to transport the RFID tag to the running tool  53 . The tag  45  may transmit the command signal  49   c  to the antenna  74  as the tag passes thereby. The MCU may receive the command signal from the tag  45  and may operate the motor controller  72   m  to energize the motor  75   m  and drive the pump  75   p . The pump  75   p  may inject the hydraulic fluid  76   f  into the actuation chamber  83  via the passage  76   g , thereby pressurizing the chamber and exerting pressure on the piston  78 . Once a threshold pressure on the piston  78  has been reached, the shearable fastener  82  may fracture, thereby releasing the piston  78 . The piston  78  may travel upward until an upper end thereof engages a shoulder formed in an outer surface of the lower housing section  71   d , thereby halting the movement. 
         [0086]    The workstring  9  may then be lowered  101 , thereby carrying the thrust cap  77  and lock sleeve  81  downward until the lower shoulder  77   b  engages a landing shoulder formed in an inner surface of the packer  15   p . Continued lowering  101  of the workstring  9  may cause the packer shoulder to exert a reactionary force on the thrust cap  77  and lock sleeve  81 , thereby pushing the dog  80  against the groove taper. The dog  80  may be pushed to the extended position, thereby releasing the thrust cap  77  and lock sleeve  81 . Lowering  101  of the workstring  9  may continue, thereby disengaging the gear  86  from the key  88 . The lowering  101  may be halted by engagement of the thrust cap upper end  77   t  with a lower end of the spring washer  92 . The workstring  9  may then be rotated  8  from surface by the top drive  5  to cause the lead nut  87  to travel down the thrust cap lead screw  77   d  while the float nut  90  travels upward relative to the threaded dogs of the packer  15   p . The float nut  90  may disengage from the threaded dogs before the lead nut  87  bottoms out in the threaded passage. The rotation  8  may be halted by the lead nut  87  bottoming out against a lower end of the lead screw  77   d , thereby restoring torsional connection between the thrust cap  77  and the body  65 . 
         [0087]    An upper portion of the workstring  9  may then be raised and then lowered to confirm release of the running tool  53 . The workstring  9  and liner string  15  may then be rotated  8  from surface by the top drive  5  and rotation may continue during the cementing operation. Cement slurry (not shown) may be pumped from the mixer  42  into the cementing swivel  7   c  via the valve  41  by the cement pump  13 . The cement slurry  81  may flow into the launcher  7   d  and be diverted past the dart  43   d  via the diverter and bypass passages. Once the desired quantity of cement slurry has been pumped, the cementing dart  43   d  may be released from the launcher  7   d  by operating the plug launcher actuator. Chaser fluid (not shown) may be pumped into the cementing swivel  7   c  via the valve  41  by the cement pump  13 . The chaser fluid may flow into the launcher  7   d  and be forced behind the dart  43   d  by closing of the bypass passages, thereby propelling the dart into the workstring bore. Pumping of the chaser fluid by the cement pump  13  may continue until residual cement in the cement discharge conduit has been purged. Pumping of the chaser fluid  82  may then be transferred to the mud pump  34  by closing the valve  41  and opening the valve  6 . 
         [0088]    The dart  43   d  may be driven through the workstring bore by the chaser fluid until the dart lands onto the wiper plug of the plug release system  60 , thereby closing a bore thereof. Continued pumping of the chaser fluid may exert pressure on the seated dart  43   d  until the wiper plug is released from the LDA  9   d . Once released, the combined dart and wiper plug may be driven through the liner bore by the chaser fluid, thereby driving the cement slurry through the landing collar  15   c  and reamer shoe  15   s  into the annulus  48 . Pumping of the chaser fluid may continue until the combined dart and wiper plug land on the collar  15   c . Once the combined dart and wiper plug have landed, pumping of the chaser fluid may be halted and the workstring upper portion raised until the setting tool  52  exits the PBR  15   r . The workstring upper portion may then be lowered until the setting tool  52  lands onto a top of the PBR  15   r . Weight may then be exerted on the PBR  15   r  to set the packer  15   p . Once the packer  15   p  has been set, rotation  8  of the workstring  9  may be halted. The LDA  9   d  may then be raised from the liner string  15  and chaser fluid circulated to wash away excess cement slurry. The workstring  9  may then be retrieved to the MODU  1   m.    
         [0089]    Alternatively, the RFID tag  45  may be embedded in the ball  43   b , such as in a periphery thereof, thereby obviating the need for the tag launcher  44  and the MCU may operate the actuator after a predetermined period of time sufficient for setting of the liner hanger  15   h  and operation of the catcher  59 . In a further variant of this alternative, the electronics package  72  may include a pressure sensor in fluid communication with the body bore and the MCU may operate the actuator  75  once a predetermined pressure has been reached (after receiving the command signal) corresponding to the second threshold pressure. Alternatively, the electronics package may include a proximity sensor instead of the antenna and the ball may have targets embedded in the periphery thereof for detection thereof by the proximity sensor. 
         [0090]      FIGS. 5A and 5B  illustrate an alternative running tool  110  for use with the LDA  9   d , according to another embodiment of this disclosure. The running tool  110  may be used with the LDA  9   d  instead of the running tool  53 . The running tool  110  may include a body  115 , a controller  66   a , a release  117 , an override  118 , and a latch  119 . The body  115  may have a bore formed therethrough and include two or more tubular sections  115   u,i ,  65   o . An inner body section  115   i  may be connected to an upper body section  115   u , such as by threaded couplings. A fastener, such as a threaded nut  120 , may be connected to a threaded coupling formed in an outer surface of the inner body section  115   i  and may receive an upper end of the outer housing section  65   o . The body  115  may also have threaded couplings formed at each longitudinal end thereof for connection to the setting tool  52  at an upper end thereof and the stinger  54  at a lower end thereof. 
         [0091]    The controller  66   a  may include a housing  121 , the electronics package  72 , a power source, such as the battery  73 , the antenna  74 , the actuator  75 , and hydraulics  126 . The housing  121  may have a bore formed therethrough and include two or more tubular sections  71   a - c ,  121   d . A lower housing section  121   d  may be connected to the inner body section  115   i , such as by the threaded fastener  89   u . The lower housing section  121   d  may receive a lower end of the outer body section  65   o , thereby connecting the outer body section to the inner body section  115   i . The nut  120  may also receive an upper end of an upper housing section  71   a  and a second housing section  71   b  may receive a lower end of the upper housing section. The second housing section  71   b  may also receive an upper end of a third housing section  71   c . The lower housing section  121   d  may receive a lower end of the third housing section  71   c , thereby connecting the housing  71  to the inner body section  115   i.    
         [0092]    Alternatively, the power source may be a capacitor or inductor instead of the battery  73 . 
         [0093]    The hydraulics  126  may include the reservoir chamber  76   c , the balance piston  76   p , hydraulic fluid, such as the oil  76   f , and a hydraulic passage  126   g . The balance piston  76   p  may be disposed in the reservoir chamber  76   c  formed between the upper housing section  71   a  and the inner body section  115   i  and may divide the chamber into an upper portion and a lower portion. A port  120   p  may be formed through a wall of the nut  120  and may provide fluid communication between the reservoir chamber upper portion and the buffer chamber  61 . The hydraulic oil  76   f  may be disposed in the reservoir chamber lower portion. The balance piston  76   p  may carry inner and outer seals for isolating the hydraulic oil  76   f  from the reservoir chamber upper portion. 
         [0094]    The hydraulic passage  126   g  may provide fluid communication between the actuator  75  and the release  117 . A lower portion of the hydraulic passage  126   g  may be formed through a wall of the third housing section  71   c , a mid portion of the hydraulic passage may be formed through a wall of the lower housing section  121   d , and an upper portion of the hydraulic passage may be formed in a wall of the inner body section  115   i . An upper end of the hydraulic passage  126   g  may be in fluid communication with a piston  128  of the release  117 . 
         [0095]    The latch  119  may longitudinally and torsionally connect the liner string  15  to an upper portion of the LDA  9   d . The liner packer  15   p  may be slightly modified to accommodate the running tool  110  by replacing the threaded dogs with a groove. The latch  119  may include a torque sleeve  127 , a longitudinal fastener, such as a collet  130 , and a collet seat  131 . The collet  130  may have an upper base portion and fingers extending from the base portion to a lower end thereof. The collet fingers may be radially movable between an engaged position (shown) and a disengaged position (not shown) by interaction with the torque sleeve  127  and the collet seat  131 . Each collet finger may have a lug formed at a lower end thereof. The collet fingers may be cantilevered from the collet base and have a stiffness urging the lugs toward the engaged position. The collet seat  131  may receive the lugs in the engaged position, thereby locking the fingers in the engaged position. The torque sleeve  127  may be connected to the upper housing section  115   u , such as by bayonet couplings, and have an enlarged lower portion  127   e . The enlarged lower portion  127   e  may have a torsional fastener, such as castellation profile  127   c  formed in an outer surface thereof. A bottom of the castellation profile may serve as a landing shoulder  127   s . A lower end of the torque sleeve may have a release profile  127   r  formed therein. 
         [0096]    The release  117  may include the piston  128 , a shoulder formed in an outer surface of the inner housing section  115   i , the release profile  127   r , a keeper  132 , a detent, a shearable fastener  134 , a cap  135 , and a stop  136 . The release shoulder may carry an outer seal. The outer seal may isolate an interface formed between the release shoulder and the piston  128 . The piston  128  may be longitudinally movable relative to the body  115  between an upper position (not shown) and a lower position (shown). The piston  128  may initially be fastened to the inner housing section  115   i  by the shearable fastener  134 . The piston  128  may carry an inner seal for isolating an interface formed between the inner housing section  115   i  and the piston. An actuation face of the piston  128  may be formed between the inner and outer seals and may be in fluid communication with the hydraulic passage upper end. The keeper  132  may be connected to the collet  130 , such as by a threaded coupling formed in an upper end of the collet base and a threaded coupling formed in a lower end of the keeper. The threaded connection may be secured by a threaded fastener. 
         [0097]    The detent may include a fastener, such as a snap ring  133 , and a complementary groove formed in an outer surface of the inner housing section  115   i . The snap ring  133  may be radially displaceable between an extended position (shown) and a retracted position (not shown) and may be biased toward the retracted position. The collet base may have a recess formed in an inner surface thereof for receiving the snap ring  133 . The snap ring  133  may be trapped between a shoulder of the recess and a lower end of the keeper  132 , thereby connecting the snap ring to the collet base and the keeper. The cap  135  may be connected to the keeper  132 , such as by a threaded coupling formed in an upper end of the keeper and a threaded coupling formed in a lower end of the cap. The threaded connection may be secured by a threaded fastener. The stop  136  may be a fastener, such as a snap ring, carried in a groove formed in an outer surface of the inner housing section  115   i . The cap  135  may have a groove formed in an upper end thereof for engagement with the stop  136 . 
         [0098]    In operation, the MCU may receive the command signal from the RFID tag  45  in a similar fashion to that discussed above for the running tool  53 . The MCU may then operate the motor controller to energize the motor and drive the pump of the actuator  75 . The actuator pump may inject the hydraulic fluid  76   f  through the passage  126   g  and to the piston face, thereby exerting pressure on the piston  128 . Once a threshold pressure on the piston  128  has been reached, the shearable fastener  134  may fracture, thereby releasing the piston. The piston  128  may travel upward and engage the collet base. The piston may  128  continue upward movement while carrying the collet  130 , keeper  132 , and cap  135  upward until the collet lugs engage the release profile  127   r , thereby pushing the fingers radially inward. During upward movement of the piston  128 , the snap ring  133  may align and enter the detent groove, thereby preventing reengagement of the collet lugs. Movement of the piston  128  may continue until the cap  135  engages the stop  136 , thereby ensuring complete disengagement of the collet fingers. 
         [0099]    The override  118  may include the bayonet couplings, a shearable fastener, a biasing member, such as a compression spring, and a spring washer. In the event that the liner string  15  becomes stuck in the wellbore  24  during deployment, the override  118  may be operated to release the collet  130  from the liner packer  15   p . The override  118  may be operated by setting down weight of the workstring  9  onto the stuck liner string  15 , thereby releasing the collet lugs from the seat  131  and fracturing the shearable fastener. The workstring  9  may then be rotated, thereby rotating the inner housing section  115   i  relative to the torque sleeve  127  and releasing the bayonet joint. The workstring  9  and liner deployment assembly may then be retrieved from the wellbore  24 . 
         [0100]    Alternatively, the setting tool  53  may include the override  118 . Alternatively, the setting tool  53  and/or the setting tool  110  may include a hydraulic override. The hydraulic override may include a port connecting the hydraulic passage to a bore of the setting tool and closed by a pressure relief device, such as a rupture disk. Should the controller fail to operate the setting tool, a pump down plug, such as a ball, may be launched and the LDA  9   d  may include an override seat for receiving the ball. Once caught, pressure in the LDA bore may be increased until the rupture disk bursts and the bore pressure may then be used to operate the setting tool. Alternatively, either controller may be used as an override and the respective setting tool may be primarily operated using the ball  43   b.    
         [0101]    While the foregoing is directed to embodiments of the present disclosure, other and further embodiments of the disclosure may be devised without departing from the basic scope thereof, and the scope of the invention is determined by the claims that follow.

Summary:
A method of hanging an inner tubular string from an outer tubular string cemented in a wellbore includes running the inner tubular string and a deployment assembly into the wellbore using a deployment string, wherein a running tool of the deployment assembly longitudinally and torsionally fastens the liner string to the deployment string; plugging a bore of the deployment assembly; hanging the inner tubular string from the outer tubular string by pressurizing the plugged bore; and after hanging the inner tubular string, sending a command signal to the running tool, thereby unlocking or releasing the running tool.
