Definitions

  • hydraulic packers of the type to which this improvement is addressed could be adapted for use in multistring installations, it is particularly useful in wells having more than one producing zone wherein the operator might desire to produce and deplete one zone at a time.
  • the operator could use one string of tubing with the packer between each zone and with a valve capable of being open to communicate with the producing zone below each packer.
  • the operator would have the capability to produce from any selected zone by opening the valve in the tubing string communicating with such zone below the packer set thereabove, leaving the other valves in the string closed.
  • the packers are lowered into the well as the tubing string is made up.
  • the packer may be successively set and tested for leaks after they are set. This is carried out by closing the lower end of the tubing string by a floating ball valve.
  • a frangible plug closes communication between the tubing bore and a setting chamber between the pistons in the packer.
  • a shifting sleeve in the tubing bore is arranged to shear the frangible plug when moved upwardly or downwardly as the case may be, to open the port therein and allow communication between the bore of the tubing string and the setting chamber to permit fluid pressure to be applied to the setting chamber and the setting piston therein to set the packer in the manner which will be hereinafter described.
  • the sleeve valve below the packer in the tubing string is opened and pressure may be applied to either the casing annulus or inside the tubing string to test the packer to determine whether or not it will hold pressure.
  • next lowest packer may likewise be set and tested with all valves in the tubing string between the packers closed except that immediately below the packer being set and tested. Selected packers in the string may likewise be set and tested.
  • the isolated setting chamber between the pistons in the packer Prior to running the packer in the well the isolated setting chamber between the pistons in the packer is filled with fluid through ports provided through the wall of the chamber and the ports are then closed. Thereby the setting chamber between the pistons is filled with fluid which is isolated from the fluid exter nally thereof and fluid in the tubing string by reason of the shearable plug in the shifting sleeve and the seals on the pistons.
  • At least one of the pistons is movable longitudinally of the chamber to sufficient extent to compensate for expansion or contraction of the fluid in the setting chamber by reason of temperature changes outside same or by reason of equalization of pressure differential between fluids outside and inside the chamber, so that such expansion or pressure change will not be transferred through the setting sleeve to the shearable elements in the packer to cause premature setting of the packer.
  • a primary object of the invention to provide means in a hydraulic packer to compensate for temperature and/or pressure changes encountered upon lowering the packer in the well to prevent premature setting of the packer.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a setting chamber between the pistons in a hydraulic packer which is isolated from fluids inside and outside the chamber, which chamber is filled with fluid and wherein at least one of the pistons is movable to compensate for expansion or contraction of the fluid therein by reason of temperature changes and to compensate for changes in pressure differential between the fluid in the chamber and fluid outside the chamber to thereby prevent such forces from being transferred to shearable members in the packer to cause premature setting of the packer.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide in a hydraulic packer an isolated setting chamber between the pistons therein which is filled with fluid and communication between the chamber and the tubing string may be established through a shearable plug actuated by a shifting sleeve from inside the tubing string.
  • Still another object of the invention is to provide a plurality of such hydraulic packers in a tubing string, each having an isolated setting chamber therein filled with fluid wherein each such chamber may be selectively placed in communication with the tubing string by means of a shifting sleeve which establishes communication between the tubing string and the setting chamber by a shearable plug which provides a positive seal and isolation of said chamber from the tubing string until the shearable plug is broken to establish communication between the bore of the tubing and the chamber.
  • a general object of the invention is to provide an improvement in a hydraulic packer which positively prevents premature setting of the packer while being lowered in the well by reason of pressure and temperature variations.
