KTC Tension Unloader

The KTC Tension Unloader provides a means of equalizing differential pressure after completing squeeze or other remedial work below a packer.

Run above a tension set squeeze packer, the unloader will remain open going in or out of the well, due to an internal friction device. The tension used to set the packer will also close the unloader, permitting pressure work below the packer. To open, set sufficient weight on the packer to overcome the internal friction device. Resistance to closing or opening can easily be adjusted in the field, from a minimum of zero to a maximum of approximately 12,000 lbs.

The KTC Tension Unloader is available for 2-3/8" EU 8 Rd tubing, to run in 4-l/2" O.D. and larger casing, and 2-7/8" EU 8 Rd tubing, to run in 5-1/2" O.D. and larger casing.
