AR-1 Snap-Set Compression Packer

The AR-1 Snap-Set Compression Packer and the AR-1 Snap-Set Compression Packer with Holddown are retrievable set down packers featuring a by-pass area through the packer and integral unloader. They are used as the upper packer in a single string two-packer installation for zone isolation, injection, or production when used above either drillable production packers or retrievable packers.

• Reliable - A multiple packing element system that has been proven on the R-3 Retrievable Casing Packer.
• Simple Operation - No tubing rotation is required. Application of approximately 7,000 Ibs. set-down weight (against a lower packer) will set and pack-off the packer. A straight upstrain releases the packer.
• A collet type snap-latch prevents the packer from setting before either landing the seal assembly or setting a lower retrievable packer. The lower portion of the tool is rotationally locked in order to deliver torque in either direction through the packer.
