Mechanical <strong>Packers</strong><br />
PG Set-Down Packer<br />
82 © 2005-2010 <strong>Weatherford</strong>. All rights reserved.<br />
<strong>Weatherford</strong>’s PG set-down packer is a retrievable packer set by<br />
compression that isolates the annulus from the production conduit in most<br />
low-pressure applications. A J-slot provides simple packer setting and<br />
release and reliable operation on the rig. The compact, inexpensive packer<br />
has a safety joint for tubing-string removal, if necessary.<br />
Applications<br />
• Low-pressure production<br />
• Production packer<br />
• Well stimulation, testing, and other pressure operations when used with<br />
an unloader and hold-down mechanism<br />
Features, Advantages and Benefits<br />
• The packer parts are interchangeable with equipment from other<br />
manufacturers, reducing costs and inventory.<br />
• A simple one-quarter right turn and the set-down weight set the packer,<br />
making it easy to run.<br />
• The drag block and rocker slip design, field proven for more than 60<br />
years, ensures a positive set and easy release.<br />
• The right safety-joint emergency release provides a reliable, inexpensive<br />
tubing-string release if necessary.<br />
• The packer can be left in the well as a production packer, avoiding rig<br />
time for retrieval.
