Model ESP Electric Submersible Retrievable Packer
The Model ESP Electric Submersible Retrievable Packer is a specialized and versatile tool engineered to enhance the functionality of an Electric Submersible Pump in demanding applications. This packer is equipped with innovative features such as threaded connections, which are specifically designed to accommodate a pack-off power cable feed-through system, complete with cable pigtails, or alternatively, a drop-through penetrator for seamless integration. Furthermore, it is equipped with additional optional ports that are strategically placed to allow for the efficient venting of annular pressure, facilitate chemical injection through the packer, and enable communication with control line operated tools, ensuring a comprehensive and adaptable solution for various operational needs.
The ESP Packer is meticulously crafted to address the frequent occurrences of workovers in ESP completions, making it an ideal choice for operations that demand high reliability and ease of maintenance. Its straightforward and streamlined design allows for effortless redress, requiring only a simple straight pull to disengage the shear release mechanism of the Packer, thereby minimizing downtime and enhancing operational efficiency.
Engineered for robust performance, the ESP Packer is capable of withstanding differential pressures of up to 5,000 psi (34.5 MPa) and is available with element options that can endure service temperatures of up to 325°F (163°C). This ensures that the packer remains resilient and effective even in the most challenging conditions, providing users with a dependable and high-performing solution for their ESP applications.
Key Features & Benefits:
- Fewer parts: The ESP Packer is specifically designed to be run with electric submersible pumps, and is not a modified version of a dual-string production packer. Its simple design and reduced number of parts provide easy retrieval and redress
- Easily set and released: Hydraulically set, straight pull/shear release
- Short, compact design: Its length (less than 4 feet) makes it easier to run and handle.
- Separate gas venting string: No venting through primary or secondary strings
- Designed to fit special needs: Optional ports through packer
- No relative movement between tubing and cable: Eliminates cable strain
- Mechanically locked in set position: A body lock ring holds the packer in the set position
- Double-grip, caged slips: Eliminates the need for hydraulic hold-downs. Top and bottom cones drive slips into the casing wall and hold loads from either direction
- Holds pressure from above and below: Packing element packs-off tighter and slips grip tighter as pressure increases from either direction
- Threaded connections can be adapted to most other feed-through systems
