Setting Mechanisms
▪ Mechanical
✓ Rotation
✓ Compression
✓ Tension
▪ Hydraulic
✓Pressure applied to tubing or annulus
✓Differential pressure acts on setting tool (permanent
packer) or internal setting sleeve (retrievable packer).
✓Preferred method for deep / deviated wells
▪ Electrical
✓ Mechanical setting mechanism
using wireline setting tool.

Mechanically Set Packer
▪ Most common as retrievable packers
▪ Slips “drag” against casing
▪ J-slot mechanism prevents setting
▪ Right turn / drag frees slips
▪ Tension / set down required to
maintain packer seal
Compression Tension

Hydraulic Set
1. Packer set using internal pressure
(against tubing plug).
2. Pressure acts through port on setting
sleeve.
3. Shear pin breaks
4. Setting sleeve drives bottom slips up
against cone .
5. Element and upper slips energized
then slips break and bite into casing

Wireline Set Packer
▪ Setting tool contains slow burning explosive
▪ Explosive drives down piston
▪ connected to setting sleeve
▪ Setting sleeve moves components of packer
relative to each other
▪ Shear stud releases packer after setting
completed

No bore – bridge plug
Single Bore
✓ Used to isolate casing or tubing
✓ Used as cement retainers
✓ Used when other plugs fail to set (last resort!)
✓ Used for single completions
Duel Bore
✓ Used for dual completions
Packers can be defined as:

• Run on electric wireline or tubing.
• Used in gravel pack completion and sand control
system.
• Has single bore to locate seal assembly

06 Production packer
✓ Installed in the tailpipe to accept a plug to:
✓ isolate production from perforations below
the packer (safety barrier)
✓ Pressure test the tubing string above it
✓ Set a hydraulically set packer
✓ Must be installed below the Mill-Out
Extension and above any perforated joints

ESP Packer
✓ single-bore, hydraulic-set packer with a dual head
designed to reduce the overall costs of
submersible pump completions. It is made up on
the tubing string allowing a full bore production
tubing ID and passage of an electric cable and
control line.

Straddles and Pack-Off Equipment
✓ Used for remediation of wellbore deficiencies
✓ The straddle is for use in any well in which
pressure communication between tubing and
annulus must be sealed off.

Inflatable Packer
✓ Permanent or Temporary Zone Isolation.
✓ Water Shut Off.
✓ Temporary Bridge Plug for Workover.
✓ Cement Squeeze Packer.
✓ Temporary Production Packer for Flow Test.
✓ Well Abandonment.
