Abstract:
Methods of sealing a hydrocarbon well containing a control line. The hydrocarbon well includes a casing string extending within a wellbore and defining a casing conduit, production tubing extending within the casing conduit and defining a tubing conduit, and at least one control line extending within an annular space. The methods include fluidly isolating a downhole region of the tubing conduit from an uphole region of the tubing conduit and actuating a shape charge device. The actuating includes forming a plurality of openings within the production tubing and severing the at least one control line. The methods also include positioning a diversion structure within the uphole region of the tubing conduit, pumping a sealing material into the annular space at the sealing material injection region, and curing the sealing material to form a fluid seal that extends within the annular space and the uphole region of the tubing conduit.

Claim (Index 1):
A method of sealing a hydrocarbon well, the method comprising:\n fluidly isolating a downhole region of a tubing conduit from an uphole region of the tubing conduit, wherein the hydrocarbon well includes a wellbore extending within a subterranean formation, a casing string extending within the wellbore and defining a casing conduit, production tubing extending within the casing conduit and defining the tubing conduit, and at least one control line extending within an annular space defined between the casing string and the production tubing; actuating a shape charge device that is positioned within a target portion of the uphole region of the tubing conduit, wherein the actuating includes:\n (i) forming a plurality of openings within the production tubing with a plurality of projectiles of the shape charge device by accelerating the plurality of projectiles through the production tubing and into the annular space; and \n (ii) severing the at least one control line at a plurality of locations with at least a subset of the plurality of projectiles; \n positioning a diversion structure within the uphole region of the tubing conduit, wherein the diversion structure is configured to restrict fluid communication from the uphole region of the tubing conduit to the annular space via at least a subset of the plurality of openings that is uphole from a sealing material injection region of the tubing conduit; pumping a sealing material, via the tubing conduit, into the annular space at the sealing material injection region; and curing the sealing material to form a fluid seal that extends both within the annular space and within the uphole region of the tubing conduit.
