    The document discusses various types of packers used in well completions. It describes mechanical packers which can be set and reset without removal. Hydraulic set packers use stored energy to ensure a seal and can withstand differential pressures. Permanently set packers have full backup rings and allow use in high pressure wells. Sliding sleeves and valves are also discussed for zonal isolation applications. The functions and designs of conventional wellheads are outlined.

    Packers PE

    • Isolate the annulus to provide sufficient


    barriers or casing corrosion prevention
    (production packer)
    • Isolate different production zones for zonal
    isolation (e.g. downhole flow controlwells)
    • Isolate gravel and sand (gravel pack packer and
    sump packer)
    • Provide an annular seal in conjunction with an
    ASV
    • Provide a repair or isolation capability (e.g.
    straddle packers)

    Without seal (anchors)


    • Prevent tubing movement in pumped wells
    – especially sucker rod pumped wells.
    • Prevent tubing movement (and reduce
    associated stresses) when the tubing is
    sealed into a gravel pack packer.
    • Transfer tubing loads to the casing in
    weight-sensitive applications such as
    TLPs.

    • Mechanical set
    Single grib
    Double grib

    • Shallow to medium setting depths


    • Low to moderately high pressures
    • Straight hole or moderate deviation

    Mechanical set – advantages


    • Cost - Generally these packers require
    less initial investment
    • Repeated use - The setting mechanism
    enables the packer to be set, released,
    moved and reset without removal and
    redressing procedures.
    • Versatile - Packer may be used for a
    variety of applications including service
    work.

    Packer PE

    • Hydraulic set
     Single string differential set retrievable packer
     Single string hydrostatic set retrievable packer
     Selective set single string hydrostatic set retrievable packer
     Dual string hydrostatic set retrievable packer
     Multiple conduit hydraulic set retrievable packer

    • Shallow to medium depths


    • Low to medium pressure applications
    • Multiple packer single string completions
    • Dual string completions
    • Selective set multiple packer completions

    PE4063/6463, Well Completion – Dr. Evren OZBAYOGLU Chapter 7

    Packers PE

    Hydraulic set – advantages


    • After the packer is set, energy is stored in the ratchet
    mechanism that ensures continued force against the
    element seal and slips to securing the packer.
    • Since the setting force is mechanically locked into the
    packer, it is capable of holding differential pressures or
    tubing forces from above or below the packer.
    • This type of packer may be set after the wellhead has
    been installed.
    • Dual tubing string completions and multiple packer
    applications generally utilize hydraulic set packers,
    which require no tubing movement in the setting
    process.

    Permanently set
    • incorporation of full 360º back-up on the packing
    element
    • elimination of complicated pressure equalizing systems
    and their potential leak path
    • much greater slip coverage in the casing I.D.
    • easier and more economical to manufacture in high alloy
    material for hostile environment service
    • most models are suitable for high pressure application
    in wells of any depth
    • allow use of larger tubing sizes

    Wellhead PE

    • The wellhead is the basis on which


    the well is constructed and tubulars
    suspended during the drilling and
    completion operation

    PE4063/6463, Well Completion – Dr. Evren OZBAYOGLU Chapter 7

    16
    Wellhead
    Functions PE

    • Each of the casing strings which are run, cemented and


    have an extension to surface or the seabed, as well as
    the production tubing string(s), are physically
    suspended within the wellhead
    • The wellhead provides the capability of flanging up a
    device to control the flow of fluid from or into the well
     BOP (during drilling)
     Christmas tree (during production)
    • Each wellhead spool or landing area offers a flanged
    outlet allowing hydraulic communication into that
    annulus

    • The Xmas Tree is the production


    flow control system and it is a
    system of valves which control
    physical or hydraulic access into the
    tubing string or the annulus between
    the production casing and tubing
    string

    PE4063/6463, Well Completion – Dr. Evren OZBAYOGLU Chapter 7

    Christmas Tree
    Access Capabilities PE

    • To inject into or produce from the


    production tubing - access is provided
    through the flow wing valve or kill line
    valve
    • To lower into the production tubing a
    wireline service tool string - the vertical
    access is provided through the swab value
    • To completely close off the well
