One-piece packing element and flat metal backup rings which combine for
superior seal
Pressure-balanced sleeve valve is opened and closed from the surface for
better control
Many of the outstanding features of our wireline plugs and packers have been
incorporated into the Models 'MMR' or 'MWR' Sleeve Valve Cement Retainers.
Both are rugged, compact units engineered for fast running downhole on either
tubing or electric wireline. Both models feature a positive, pressure-balanced
sleeve valve which is opened or closed simply by lowering or raising the tubing.
Positively-secured packing element and one piece slips combine to resist
premature setting due to well debris or rough handling and assures protection
from the hazards of high-speed running in the well. The metal backup rings
prevent extrusion of the rubber at high pressure and temperature. Because of
their design, the metal-to-metal contact developed by these backup rings is made
more secure by pressure increases. An internal ratchet lock ring retains the
dynamic force induced in the retainers during the setting operation. This simple
mechanism assures continued compression of the packing elements regardless of
pressure differentials. Case-hardened, one piece slips, designed to bite into the
hardest casing, are located at each end of retainer - final assurance of retainer
pack-off security. When the need arises, these slips are easily drilled out.
The following is a general guide for the most successful drill out technique
Spudding the work string and variations in bit speed and bit weight should be
made to help break up debris to re-establish penetration should it cease while
drilling.
One or more junk baskets should be used above the bit when normal circulation is
to be used. If reverse circulation is planned,the casing scraper or other
equipment in the tubing string should have an inside fluid passage as large as the
passage through the bit so cuttings will not bridge.
NOTE: Drilling times are directly related to tool size, bit stability, drilling weight,
pump rate, bit RPM, type of bit, drilling fluid, etc. The same considerations should
be used when drilling Cement Retainers as would be used when drilling medium
hard formations.
