MODEL "SH32" HYDRAULIC

STAGE CEMENTING TOOL

The Design of SLEDGE

HAMMER’s Hydraulic Stage
Cementing Tool provides flexibility
to perform cementing job at deviated
well in various well conditions. It
provides operational flexibility to
adjust opening pressure at the rig site
to meet various well requirements.
Its hydraulically opening port system
makes it practically useful for
horizontal wells. Without using
continuous displacement type plugs,
casing running in highly deviated
well can be cemented in two stages.

Model "SH32" is used for two-stage

Cementing. (FIG I)

APPLICATIONS

 Its design prevents circulation losses during

Cementing by reducing hydrostatic pressure
On a weak zone.
 Selective formation cementing or treating
Fluid placement.
 Total pumping pressure is reduced in long
FIG-I
Casing string.

FEATURES, ADVANTAGES AND BENEFITS

 Tool is durable and reliable because its design allows it to perform well independent of
mud properties or well angle.
 The opening and closing pressures are clearly observed at the surface which makes its
operation more efficient and safer.
 The absence of an opening cone, along with anti-rotational features and PDC-drillable
materials, accelerates drill out, saving costly rig time.
 The opening pressure of the stage tool can be adjusted at rig site to meet well
requirements, providing operational flexibility.
 Aluminium plug stoppers are easily drillable which reduce the drilling time.

WORKING

There are only two moving parts in the Model “SH32" Hydraulic Stage Cementing Tool:

1. Closing Sleeve
2. Opening Sleeve
(FIG-II)

Model "SH32" is PDC-drillable and equipped with shear screw. When the first stage shutoff plug
lands on the shut off baffle plate, increase the internal pressure of casing until the shear screw
breaks and cementing ports open. It enables circulation and second stage cement passes through the
ports into the annulus above the tool. After cementing, closing plug is released which wipes the id
of casing before bumping on closing plug stopper connected with closing sleeve. Increased pressure
shift the closing plug stopper downward, and allowing the closing sleeve to move downward to
cover the ports. A lock ring locks the sleeve in position, ensuring the stage tool remain locked.

The stage tool can be used with SLEDGEHAMMERS'S annulus casing packer to ensure cement
slurry is placed at precise depth in the annulus around the casing string in stages to provide long
term isolation.

DRILL OUT PROCEDURES

1. Be ready with appropriate drilling tools as per well requirement.
2. Prohibit the use of high – speed and down-hole motor when you drill out the inner
sleeve of the stage collar.
3. Following are the recommended drilling parameters in Table 1.

4. The drilling string should be lifted every 10-15 minutes, for the clearance of drilling
tool from rubber/metal scraps make it to rotate around the bits.
5. When drill-out the accessories; the WOB could not exceed 4 tons.
6. After drilling-out the accessories, ream 2-3 times to ensure good clean drill out.

STORAGE, TRANSPORTATION AND MAINTENANCE

1. The product should be stored in a dry warehouse, the accessories should be kept away
from rain, sunshine and exposure of sea water.
2. Do not unpack or remove the plastic bags unless you need it to use.
3. Handle with care, no deformation should occur due to dropping or collision during
conveying
4. Storage time will be maximum 2 years.

OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS (CEMENTING PROCESS)

1. Put the shut off plug into the cement head.

2. After the circulating you should conduct the first level of cementing.
3. Place the shut off plug to pump down the slurry and bump pressure.
NOTE: You should reduce the displacement distance 100-150m from stage collar,
must to reduce it within 0.5m³/min,

4. Stop the pump and increase the pressure to open the cementing Ensure that
Circulation is achievable.

5. Conducting the second stage cementing.

6. Put the closing plug into the cement head & release it into the well (suggest to keep
0.5-1m³ slurry to make the drill process easier) And apply the closing pressure the
final second stage cementing pressure
