KWHST Hydraulic Setting Tool

 

The KWHST Hydraulic Setting Tool is used to hydraulically set KWHST permanent packers. To attach the hydraulic setting tool to the packer, the guide tube on the packer is replaced with a modified hydraulic tube guide that is listed in the packer’s Engineering Design Specifications. With the setting sleeve on the packer replaced with the hydraulic tube guide, the setting tool is attached to the packer by lugs and shear pins. The setting tool is made up on the bottom of the workstring and run into the well with the packer. After the packer is set, the setting tool is released from the packer by a straight upward pull.
