The packer is a single-string device that can hold differential pressure from above or below. It isolates the casing annulus to allow production of a specified zone in vertical, deviated, and horizontal wells. The packer can also act as an anchor for the tubing string.
The single-piece mandrel body designed for up to 10,000-psi pressure differential makes this packer an economical choice for production and injection applications. The positive set of the slips and element improves reliability.
The packer is installed with the completion tubing and set by applying pressure to the tubing. The ability to set on workstring simplifies completion operations and the streamlined setting procedure reduces rig costs.
The modular architecture of our BluePack™ production packers simplifies engineering designs across the entire family.
You can select the packer that’s best suited for your well environment while configuring certain components and subassemblies of the packer based on the specific requirements or challenges of the well. For example, you might customize the elastomer based on the chemical properties of the fluids that will be in the well.
This standardization not only improves lead times and costs, it also improves operations by ensuring that employees are trained on a standardized deployment methodology.
The design incorporates two full-circumference slips supported by two opposing tapered cones with a sealing element assembly positioned between them. The slips and sealing element assembly are sequentially set and held in position by a positive-lock mechanical ratchet. Designed to split into multiple segments on setting, the slips provide a full 360° grip on the casing.
Packers are available in quality grades Q1, Q2, and Q3 and with HNBR or Aflas® elements.
