    摘要: The disclosure provides a mechanism for setting a packer. The mechanism comprises a piston disposed within a port of a packer mandrel, wherein the port comprises a seat operable to receive the piston. The mechanism further comprises a first chamber disposed at a first end of the piston, wherein the first chamber is sealed and comprises atmospheric pressure. The mechanism further comprises a spring disposed at a second end of the piston. The mechanism further comprises a second chamber disposed at the second end of the piston, wherein the second chamber comprises atmospheric pressure.

    摘要: A packer system includes a retainer positionable adjacent to a packing element and coupleable to a cylinder of a downhole tool in a wellbore. The retainer is moveable in a first direction along a mandrel of the downhole tool to compress the packing element to a compressed state and generate a seal in the wellbore or to set a slip in response to an applied pressure. The packer system includes a piston moveable in a second direction along the mandrel and configured to compress a spring in response to the applied pressure. The packer system includes an interfacing element configured to couple the cylinder to the piston subsequent to the cylinder moving a predefined amount. The packer system includes a ratchet mechanism configured to prevent movement of the cylinder in the second direction.

    摘要: A well tool in one or more example comprises a packer and a setting tool having a through bore in fluid communication with the tubular conveyance. An actuation port fluidically couples the through bore to a setting chamber. Pressurized fluid may be supplied to the setting chamber via the through bore to set the packer. An expandable material may then be exposed to an activation fluid to seal off the actuation port and isolate the setting chamber. By isolating the setting chamber after setting the sealing element, pressure may be increased to above the setting pressure to perform a well service operation, without damaging the setting chamber.

    摘要: Systems and methods of the present disclosure relate to isolating a setting chamber of an actuating assembly from tubing pressure. The actuating assembly comprises a cylinder; a mandrel disposed within the cylinder, the cylinder operable to move along the mandrel; a piston disposed between the cylinder and the mandrel, the piston operable to move along the mandrel in a direction opposite to that of the cylinder; a chamber disposed adjacent the piston, wherein the mandrel includes a port operable to allow fluid to pass into the chamber from the mandrel; and a spring disposed adjacent to the piston, the spring operable to expand, upon release of pressure from the chamber, to move the piston to seal the port and isolate the cylinder from pressure within the mandrel.
