Abstract

The invention provides an apparatus (300, 400) for actuating a downhole tool (700) by utilizing a pressure differential created by fluid flowing through a restriction in a conduit (315). The conduit is in communication with a pressure sensing line (400) that is selectively exposable to areas of near the restriction in the conduit (316, 317) having different pressures. By exposing the pressure sensing line to a portion of the conduit having a predetermined pressure therein, the pressure sensing line causes actuation of a hydraulic tool therebelow. The apparatus is of particular use for a single trip sidetrack system in combination with an MWD-tool, a whipstock, and an anchor packer without a bypass valve.
