PACKER SYSTEMS Dual String Retrievable
TECHNICAL UNIT

GT™ Dual String Retrievable Packer


Product Family Nos. H78509 and H78510

Introduction
The GT™ Dual String Retrievable Packer is a
high performance dual string hydraulic set packer
that requires no mandrel movement during setting,
and can be released on either or both strings si-
multaneously. The packer is extremely compact
and provides maximum preset prevention while
running.

Applications
The GT Dual String Retrievable Packer is uti-
lized for both production and injection applications.
The packer can be run as an upper packer where
the bottom packer is a single-bore packer, or as
the upper or intermediate packer in tandem or se-
lective-tandem dual completions. The simple and
reliable design incorporates a versatile packing el-
ement system that is ideally suited for high pres-
sure gas wells.

Features/Benefits
• Compact - Allows for convenient handling on
surface and makes negotiating tight hole
conditions easier
• Simple makeup - Both mandrels are one piece
and are free to rotate to facilitate easy makeup
or break-out of the tubing strings
• Tubing interlock - Both strings are
mechanically locked together while running in
the hole so that any load transmitted between
the strings does not load the shear release
mechanism
• Preset interlock - Loads encountered by outer
components during run-in are transferred to
both mandrels to prevent preset
• No mandrel movement - Mandrel movement is
not required during the setting sequence,
making it ideal for tandem and ESP® packer
hookups
