Packers and Liner Hangers
• Basic Overview
• Applications and Selections of Packers
• Setting Criteria and procedures
What is a Packer?
• A packer is a tool used to form an annular seal
between two concentric strings of pipe or between
the pipe and the wall of the open hole.
• A packer is usually set just above the producing
zone to isolate the producing interval from the
casing annulus or from producing zones elsewhere
in the wellbore.
• Separates fluid types (or ownership), protects
against pressures and corrosion.
Why are packers used?
• Tubing and packer used to isolate zone of interest
- can be removed for repair.
• Packers act as downhole valve for press control.
• Packer can be a temporary plug to seal off the
zone while work is done up the hole.
• Subsurface safety valves used with packers for
downhole shut-in.
• Focus flow

Inner Mandrel
Packer Cutaway Drawing
Ability to effectively set a packer depends on having a clean, non corroded set point and
reaching the set point without fouling the slips or failing other components.
As the packer sets, the inner mandrel moves up,
driving the cone underneath the slips, pushing them into the casing wall. The sealing element is

Mechanical isolation methods
Two examples:
1. An external casing packer (ECP) set to seal the annulus between the surface or protection string and the inner, production string
2. A conventional packer set near the end of the tubing, that isolates the inner annulus from the tubing.

– Wash Tools
Retrievable Packers
• Expected to be retrieved
• More prone to leaks
• Need an equalizing port
• Release mechanism must be possible with
well design
Retrievable Packers
• Compact
• Simple J slot control for set and release
• Shear ring secondary release

Tension Set - Economical packer used in
production, injection, zone isolation applications
Retrievable Production Packers
• Rotation set and release
• Can be set with tension or compression
• Tubing can be landed in tension, compression or neutral • Models rated up to 10,000 psi
• Pressure equalization needed prior to upper slip release • Secondary shear release required
Mechanical - Used in production, injection,
fracturing, zone isolation and remedial applicatuions
Retrievable Production Packers
• Compression set
• RH rotation required to set, (LH option usually available)
• Available with or without Hydraulic hold down buttons for differential pressure from below
• By-pass needed for equalization of pressure, and for running and retrieval without surging/swabbing the well.
Mechanical Used in production, stimulation and testing
Retrievable Packers
• Can act as a bridge plug prior to production
• Connect to tubing via On/Off Tool with blanking plug • Tubing can be landed in tension, compression or neutral • Slips above and below the elements
• Triple element pack off system • Pressures to 10,000 psi
• Fluid bypass needed for pressure equalization • Retrieved on tubing
• Secondary shear release needed
Wireline set - Used in production, injection,
fracturing, zone isolation and remedial applications where wireline setting is preferred
Seal Bore Packers
• Allow tubing movement; however:
– Too much contraction can pull seals out of PBR
– Seals can “bond” to the seal bore over long
time at higher temperatures
Unprotected seals below the packer may allow seal swelling by gas and fluids, causing seals to roll off if the stinger is pulled out.
Deep Completions
• Most typical is permanent packer with a
PBR (arrangement depends on personal
preferences, individual well configurations
and intended operations).
• Seal assembly length dependent not only on
normal operations, but also fracturing, kill
and expected workovers.
Seal Bore Packers
• High pressure & temperature ratings available • Multiple packing elements available
• Short units are desirable for use in tight doglegs (>5o) and high
(>8o/100ft) departure angles
• Ability to set on wireline or with a hydraulic setting tool • Rotationally locked units needed for mill-ability
• Share Seal Assemblies with permanent seal bore packers
• Critical metallurgical and seals (O-rings, etc) should be isolated from wellbore fluids by main elements.
Retrievable Seal Bore Packer
• Hydraulic set version retrievable seal bore
packer available for one-trip installations
• Seal assembly is run in place for one trip
installation
• Available with large upper seal bore to
maximize ID
• Rotationally locked components
One-trip applications
Permanent Seal Bore Packers
• Seals run in place for one trip setting
• A metal back-up system can be specified to
casing ID to prevent element extrusion
• Elastomer and materials available for
hostile environments
Used in one trip production applications
Packer Considerations
• Select seals for full range of expected
temperatures, pressures, and fluids.
• A back-up system is need around the main seal to
prevent seal extrusion at high temps and pressure.
• Examine slip design to help avoid premature
setting during movement through viscous fluids,
doglegs and rough treatment

Inflatable Packers and Plugs
• Reasons to run and inflatable.
– Need to set beneath a restriction.
– Need to set in open hole.
– In non-standard casing.
– Setting in multiple sizes of pipe on same run.
– Where larger run-in and retrieval clearances are
needed.
Inflatable Setting Considerations
The inflatable packer offers a way to set a seal in a larger area below a
restriction.
The quality of the seal depends on how much the packer must expand over initial diameter, the length of the slide (placement run), the
differential pressure it must hold, what fluid is used for inflation and the conditions in the area in which it is set.
Holding ability of the inflatable is always suspect since it does not have conventional slips.
When deflating an inflatable packer, allow time (1 hr?) for relaxation of the elements. The elements never shrink back to initial diameter – allow about 30% increase in diameter for
Baker
Inflatables rely on expansion of an inner rubber bag that pushes steel cables or slats against the wall of the pipe or the open hole. The only gripping ability is generated by the friction of the steel against the pipe or open hole. This is critically dependent on the inflation pressure and the exterior slat or cable design. For a
permanent seal, place several bailers of cement on top of the inflatable.
• Heavy Duty reinforced casing cups
• Spacing between cups adjustable from 12” to any length by addition of standard tubing pup joints
• Large internal bypass
• Cup wear from casing burrs can be significant and may reduce seal, especially in long zones. • The number of successful resets depends on
casing conditions, pressures, slide length (running), temperature and deviation.
Successful resets run from about 5 to over 20.

Production Packers
• Purposes
– Casing protection from fluids or pressures
– Separation of zones
– Subsurface pressure and fluid control
– Artificial lift support equipment
Packer Considerations
• Seal stability
– pressure, temperature, fluid reaction
• Force balance and direction
– slip direction
• resists upward motion, downward or both ways) • tension, compression, mechanical or hydraulic set
Allowing Tubular Movement
• Usually incorporate a PBR - polished bore
receptacle, for a “stinger” or seal assembly
to slide through.
• Shoulder out on the PBR - if it can move, it
will eventually leak.
• Seals must match operating extremes as
well as general conditions.

Forces and Length Changes
• Temperature:
• Piston Effect:
• Ballooning
• Buckling:
A tubing movement calculator is the best method, but the difficulty is in knowing accurate temperature changes and pressure changes.
Is it Force or Length Change?
• No packer - tube suspended and not touching well
bottom - length change
• Tube landed on packer - incr. force with
increasing temp, shortening possible with cooling
after downward force absorbed.
• Latched tubing - no movement, only forces
• Tube stung through - length changes unless
locator is shouldered
• If tube set in tension or compression, effects of
temp depends on initial force and DT

What Temperature is Average?
• If no circulation - assume all tubing is same

• If circulation is allowed, all but top few
joints will be unaffected by injected fluid

What about those other factors?
• Buckling, Piston, Ballooning - Use a
computer program - better yet, use a couple
of them (different assumptions).
Temperature Extremes
• The extremes of temperature change (higher
than normal) are usually seen in operations
involving cyclic thermal processes.
• Lower than normal temperatures may be
seen in permafrost, sea floor penetrating and
CO
2operations.
Setting the Packer
• Chances of setting packers go up sharply
when a casing scraper is run. (Remember
the burrs on the perforations?)
• The quantity of debris turned loose from the
casing wall is often severe! (Tens of
pounds worth!) Watch the formation
damage.
Packer Set Point Requirements
• Avoid setting packer in the
same joint where previous packers have been set.
• Avoid doglegs, fault
locations or high earth stress zones
• Adequate cement and bond
required behind pipe at packer set point
• Caliper casing above and
through the packer set point
• Clearance between packer
and casing at set point is
within rated range of packer
• Avoid zones of high
corrosion, either internal or external.
• Remove burrs from pipe
above packer set point
• Remove debris (dope, mill
scale, mud, cement, etc.) on casing wall (fills slip teeth)
• Well pressures are within
range of packer at set point
• Pipe alloy compatible with
setting slips (hardness of casing relative to packer slips)
• Slip design & contact area
acceptable for slip holding
• Weight applied to packer
can be transferred to formation
Information Required Before
Setting Packer or Plug
• Wellbore drawing with all diameters • Last TD tag – rerun?
• Doglegs and deviations
• Viscosity of fluid in wellbore
– Calculate running speed vs. surge/swab.
• Copy of reference logs
• Where have other packers been set (avoid that joint) • Set point requirements
Job Checks
• Measurements from CCL to a packer
reference point.
• Run in hole at about 100 fpm, slowing at ID
restrictions.
• Using CCL/GR, log up and correlate depths
• Set packer – look for line weight reduction
• Disconnect and log up a few collars (may
Job Checks
• Drop back and gently tag packer with
setting tool to confirm depth.
Packer Setting Guidelines
• Drift
• Scraping
Drift the Casing
• Casing ID requirements above the set point
• Casing ID requirements below the set point
• Check the drift to deepest point with drift of
Clean/Scrape The Casing?
• Removal of perforation burrs minimizes elastomer
seal damage
• Removal of cement, mud, pipe dope and mill scale
minimize debris that can fill the slips.
• Scraping casing can increase packer setting
success
• Scraping casing can also produce some severe
formation damage if perforations are not
Casing Scraper – Designed to knock off perforation burrs, lips in tubing pins, cement and mud sheaths, scale, etc. It cleans the pipe before
setting a packer or plug.
The debris it turns loose from the pipe may damage the
formation unless the pay is protected by a LCM or plug.
