IE THERMAL PACKER
The IE Thermal Packer is a CT Thermal
Packer with an Internal Expansion
(IE) Joint. This packer is a double-grip
retrievable packer designed for steam
injection/production. This packer’s design
is based on our highly successful ASI-X
Packer.
This packer features a double-grip hold
down system capable of holding pressure
from above and below. This feature
allows the packer to maintain pack-off
and prevent movement of the packing
element without having the packer in
tension or compression. The double-grip
feature allows the packer to be ideally
suited for huff and puff operations as
well as continuous steam injection.
This packer is equipped with high
temperature EPDM elements with wire
mesh backups to prevent extrusion for
service up to 450° F (an element package
for 650° F is also available).
