ESP Completions

9 5/8” ESP Packer


7” DHR Packer
Cable Pack-Off
Vent Valve
9 5/8” ESP Packer ®

Description:
Hydraulic-set, Straight-pull release.
Multiple ports for cable, vent gas, and control
line by-pass.
Operation:
Set with tubing pressure.
Retrieved by shearing release screws with
straight pull of the tubing.
Features:
One-trip run and set.
Concentric element geometry.
Simple design concept.
9 5/8” ESP Packer ®

Setting Process
Tubing pressure enters the setting chamber
and acts upon the setting piston.
Start-to-set pins shear and pushes the
elements and slip carrier down.
Slips deploy outward onto the bottom wedge.
Top wedge travels under the slips.
Elements are compressed to the casing wall.
Setting force retained by the internal slips.
9 5/8” ESP Packer ®

Pressure Rating
Pressure differential from above creates forces acting
directly into the slips.
Pressure rating from below creates upward forces
acting upon the slips via the shear release screws.
Pressure rating from below is therefore controlled by
the shear release value.
The pressure differential from below acts upon an
area created by the casing ID less the tubing ID.
9 5/8” 40 ppf casing has an ID of 8.835”.
3 1/2” 9.3 ppf tubing has an ID of 2.992”.
Net area equals 54.28 sq.in.
Using a 1.30 safety factor, 60,000 lbs of shear release
will provide 850 psi differential rating from below.
9 5/8” ESP Packer
®

Retrieval Process
Straight pull of the tubing shears the release screws.
The mandrel moves up to relax the elements and
retract the slips.
Limits to straight pull should be accounted for when
determining the shear release value (pressure rating
from below).
Straight pull AND tubing pressure will act together to
shear the release screws (tubing pressure x 11.64
sq.in).
Once the packer releases, slack off to neutral for 15
minutes to allow the elements time to relax.
Pull out of the hole slowly.
7” DHR Packer ®

Description:
Hydraulic-set, Straight-pull release.
Multiple ports for cable and vent gas.
Operation:

Pressure Rating (from above)


Pressure differential from above creates forces acting
upon the slips via the shear release screws..
Pressure rating from above is therefore controlled by
the shear release value.
The pressure differential from above acts upon an area
created by the casing ID less the element mandrel OD.
7” 23 ppf casing has an ID of 6.366”.
7” DHR has a 4.799” element mandrel OD.
Net area equals 13.74 sq.in.
Using a 1.34 safety factor, 40,000 lbs of shear release
will provide 2183 psi differential rating from above.
7” DHR Packer ®

Pressure Rating (from below)


Pressure differential from below creates forces
acting upon the slips via the shear release screws..
Pressure rating from below is therefore controlled by
the shear release value.
The pressure differential from below acts upon an
area created by the element mandrel OD less the
tubing ID.
7” DHR has a 4.799” element mandrel OD.
2 7/8” 6.5 ppf tubing has a 2.441” ID.
Net area equals 13.40 sq.in.
Using a 1.34 safety factor, 40,000 lbs of shear release
will provide 2237 psi differential rating from below.

®

Retrieval Process
Straight pull of the tubing shears the release screws.
The mandrel moves up and retracts the slips and
relaxes the elements.
Limits to straight pull should be accounted for when
determining the shear release value (pressure rating
from below).
Tubing pressure will NOT assist with shearing the DHR
packer.
Once the packer releases, slack off to neutral for 15
minutes to allow the elements time to relax.
Pull out of the hole slowly.
Cable Pack-Off ®

Description:
Compression energized elastomer seals.
Dual seals with four elements.
Operation:

Small size.
Redundant seals.
Designs available for round and flat cables.

Vent Valve ®

Description:
Surface-controlled via control line.
Vents gas past packer into annulus.
Holds pressure from below only.

pressure.

to 500 psi.
Vent Valve ®

Poppet closure.
Metal-to-metal closure seal.
Deep set capability.
Small diameter (1.89”)
Rupture disk for testing above.
Vent Valve
®

Maximum setting depth


Determined by “minimum closing pressure”.
The minimum closing pressure must
overcome the control line fluid hydrostatic
pressure.
The minimum closing pressure is 1200 psi.
Hydraulic fluid gradient is 0.35 psi/ft.
Max. Depth = Min. Closing Pressure / (Fluid
Gradient x 1.25) = 1200/(0.35 x 1.25) = 2742 ft.
Vent Valve
®

Minimum surface hold-open pressure


Determined by “maximum full open pressure”.
The minimum surface control line pressure and
control line fluid hydrostatic pressure must overcome
the maximum full open pressure and well pressure.
The maximum full open pressure is 2800 psi.
Hydraulic fluid gradient is 0.35 psi/ft.
Hold Open Press. = Max. Full Open Pressure - (Fluid
Gradient x Depth) + Well Pressure at Valve +200
Note that the maximum well pressure at the valve
should occur during the 800 psi rupture disk shear.
For max. well pressure of 1981 psi and valve depth of
2625 ft, the Hold Open Press. will be 4062 psi
