Mechanical Set – Retrievable Packer
The G1-X is the a versatile mechanically set retrievable packers and may be used in any production application. Treating, testing, injecting, pumping wells, flowing wells, deep or shallow, the G1-X is suited. The packer can be left in tension or compression, depending on well conditions and the required application. A large internal bypass reduces swabbing when running and retrieving. The bypass closes when the packer is set and opens prior to releasing the upper slips when retrieving to allow pressure equalization. The J-Slot design allows easy setting and releasing; 1/4 turn right-hand set, right-hand release. The G1-X 7K Mechanical Set Retrievable Packer has the ability to withstand pressure from above or below with differential pressures of 7,500 PSI.
