Abstract

A downhole tool that is capable of isolating communication pressure from below the set downhole tool, and is capable of being converted to a frac plug is provided. The downhole tool includes a packer with a ball seat defined therein. A plug is disposed at a lower end of the downhole tool to isolate the upper well from the lower well. A sealing ball is carried with the packer into the well by a setting tool. The movement of the sealing ball away from the ball seat is limited by isolation of the sealing ball from the lower well. A rod is disposed through the downhole tool contacting the plug. The rod is partially disposed in the ball seat, preventing the sealing ball from sealing. When the packer is set, flow within the well is isolated, thereby allowing treatment of the well above the packer. With the application of sufficient pressure, the sealing ball applies force to the rod which shears the plug from within the tool. The tool is converted to a standard frac plug.
