Detailed Description

The HP-6 Hydraulic Set High Angle Packer is a compact, hydraulically actuated packer designed for low to medium pressure oil and gas wells, particularly in highly deviated or horizontal completions. Packers are critical completion tools that isolate production or injection zones, maintain well integrity, and prevent cross flow between formations. The short body length of the HP-6 makes it especially suited for tight radius deviations and severe doglegs where standard packers may be difficult to deploy.

The HP-6 sets hydraulically without requiring mandrel movement, allowing multiple packers to be run and set sequentially in a single trip. This feature supports stacked packer completions, reducing rig time and improving operational efficiency. Built-in bypass ports equalize pressure across the packer during retrieval, preventing excessive loading on the sealing elements and ensuring smooth and safe recovery.

The shear release mechanism is isolated from the packer hydraulics, enabling low release force even when the tool is exposed to full differential pressure. The straight pull release mechanism is field adjustable up to 55,000 pounds, providing flexibility in retrieval under a variety of well conditions. The packer is rated to 7,500 psi differential and has been tested in Q125 casing, offering confidence in performance under standard completion pressures.

Materials and elastomers can be selected to suit hostile well environments, providing durability and reliability in applications such as offshore production, high-angle wells, and challenging horizontal or deviated completions. The HP-6 combines a simple hydraulic setting mechanism with a robust mechanical design, delivering a reliable, efficient, and economical solution for isolating zones and maintaining well integrity in high-angle or complex wells.
