A method of lining a drilled bore comprises running an expandable first
tubular into a bore and locating a portion of the first tubular in an
unlined section of the bore and another portion of the first tubular
overlapping a portion of an existing second tubular. The first tubular is
secured relative to the second tubular while retaining the provision of
fluid outlets to permit displacement of fluid from an annulus between the
first tubular and the bore wall. An expansion device is then run through
the first tubular to expand the first tubular to a larger diameter.
Cement is then circulated into the annulus between the expanded first
tubular and the bore wall. The fluid outlets are then closed.
