Overview Two scenarios can exist where the dimensional gap between the outer diameter (OD) of a swellable isolation packer and its target sealing inner diameter (ID) can be larger than average. A heavily washed out open hole can present a challenge where the packer OD must be maintained at a standard size. Even an open hole that is drilled in-gauge can be difficult when a reduced packer OD is required to aid deployment, perhaps to achieve a reduction in torque-and-drag modelling or to minimise impact on equivalent circulating densities. In these circumstances, an above average swell ratio is required to establish and maintain isolation. Reactive has developed elastomers to provide a solution to these challenges.
