BR-IX Shear Release Packer

The BR-IX Single String Double-Grip Mechanical Set Production Packer is the most versatile of the mechanically set retrievable packers and may be used in any production application. This packer is suited for treating, testing, or injection applications, in pumping or flowing wells, either deep or shallow. This packer can be left in tension or compression depending on well conditions and the required application.

The BR-IX Shear Release Packer with Shear Release Bottom features a J-pin ring equipped with an emergency shear release in the event the packer will not release in the normal manner.

A large internal bypass reduces the swabbing effect during run-in and retrieval, and closes when the packer is set. When the packer is released, the bypass opens first, allowing the pressure to equalize before the upper slips are released. A non-directional slip is released first, making it easier to release the other slips. The BR-IX has the ability to withstand 7,500 psi of differential pressure from above or below. In the event the packer will not release in the normal manner, the J-pin ring is equipped with an emergency shear release.

The BR-IX with high pressure for 10,000 psi and 12,000 psi are also available upon request.

Features:
  • Holds high pressure differentials from above or below.
  • Can be set using tension or compression.
  • 1/4 right rotation required to set and release.
  • Elastomer options available for hostile environments.
  • Temperature Rating up to 400 Degree F.
  • Pressure Ratings up to 10000 Psi.
  • Emergency Shear release option.
  • Large internal by-pass.
  • Effectively meets several requirements for zonal isolation, injection, pumping and production.
