For oil and gas operators working with packers, bridge plugs, and cement retainers, the VIGOR Hydraulic Setting Tool (HST) provides an efficient and reliable solution for downhole deployment. This robust hydraulic-activated tool is designed to set this critical well equipment in even the most challenging environments.
The VIGOR HST is a modular Hydraulic Setting Tool that can generate immense setting forces of up to 60,000 lbs using applied tubing pressure. This allows it to securely set packers, plugs, and retainers in highly deviated, horizontal, or irregular wellbores where wireline operations are difficult.
Key features include:
◆Flexible Activation
The HST can be activated by either dropping a ball or using a circulating sub to direct tubing pressure to the hydraulic pistons. This controlled method prevents premature setting.
◆High Setting Forces
With setting forces up to 60,000 lbs, the HST can reliably set and pack off packer elements and slips even in high-angle or horizontal sections.
◆Modular Components
The HST consists of a hydraulic setting module with stacked pistons, a setting sleeve, and adapter kit to connect to the packer. This enables customized configurations.
◆Automatic Fill/Drain
The setting tool automatically fills with well fluids as run in hole and drains for retrieval, preventing pulling a wet string.
◆Rugged Construction
Built to withstand shock loads, the HST can handle harsh downhole conditions in deep, high-temperature wells.
The VIGOR HST setting tool works by intensifying the applied tubing pressure through its stacked piston setting module. This amplified hydraulic force transfers through the setting sleeve and adapter kit to push the packer slips and sealing elements outwards to seal against the casing.
Available in a range of sizes from 1-11/16" to 4-3/8" OD, the HST can accommodate most packer, bridge plug, and cement retainer models. Top connections include 1" AMMT, 2-3/8" and 2-7/8" threads.
While not suitable for wireline deployment, the Hydraulic Setting Tool enables efficient packer setting operations when run on tubing or coiled tubing. This makes it ideal for zonal isolations, production packing, and staging frac treatments, especially in highly deviated or horizontal sections.
With a maximum 10,000 psi working pressure rating, the VIGOR HST provides a flexible and reliable setting solution compared to traditional mechanical or hydraulic wireline methods.
