• Reliability – Multiple redundant elastomeric
elements maintain pressure integrity while
eliminating gas migration paths in the liner top.
The absence of slips provides even stress
distribution into the support casing and eliminates HAL15875

potential sites for corrosion.

• Integrity – The proprietary design of the hanger

body allows for higher circulation rates to improve
cement job integrity and minimize cement pack-off HAL17249

potential.

• Versatility – The VersaFlex system is available in

most common liner/casing configurations.

• Adaptability – The liner hanger/packer can be

combined with existing Halliburton completion
products to provide a superior liner top
completion.
