HPHT - Retrievable Packer/Plug

(Patent Pending)

Product Description
• Ideal for workover applications in HPHT wells: bridge plugging,
barrier applications, flow control etc.
• A unique metal-to-metal seal, enabled by novel packer
technology, ensures HPHT performance.
• Can be deployed and retrieved using industry standard tools
(high temperature versions may be required).
• Qualified according to ISO 14310 standard up to 10000 psi and
175°C.
• Standard material: Grade Super 13 Cr (UNS S41426). Other
materials are available on request.

The HPHT plug is a high performance retrievable bridge plug/packer


for remedial workover applications in High Pressure/High
Temperature wells. The plug development was originally requested
by Statoil as a plug alternative for their HPHT wells in the Kristin/
Åsgard North Sea oil and gas fields.

The innovative seal design is based on two separate circular


arrays consisting of small spring-loaded metal blocks. When the
plug is set, these blocks will expand radially and form dense
barriers that act as metal-to-metal seals when forced against the
casing wall. The metal blocks overlap, and a high temperature
elastomer is placed in the centre of the arrays to ensure proper
sealing in the overlap as the metal blocks expand.

A rugged anchor design allows loads in either direction, and the


slips have a large contact area to minimise casing/tubing
deformation or damage. Together with the packer module, the
anchor will ensure the plug self-centralises on setting. On retrieval,
the slips are positively pulled back from the casing/tubing wall to
their running position.

The HPHT plug has been designed with a bore that will serve as
an internal junk catcher when the tool is used as a bridge plug.
Further junk extensions can be added at the bottom of the tool
for increased displacement of well debris.

Retrieving the HPHT plug is a one-trip operation on slickline using


an industry standard GS pulling tool. By straight upward pulling
only there is no need for separate pressure equalising actions
(downward movement, prongs etc), as the equalising assembly
has been made an integrated part of the release mechanism.
