Reflex® HP Swellable Isolation Packer
High-pressure seal solution for wellbore isolation in challenging environments
The Reflex® HP Swellable Isolation Packer is a high-pressure sealing solution designed for challenging downhole environments. It features swelling elastomers directly bonded to OCTG tubing, casing, or mandrels, customized for specific applications. This technology is commonly used for open-hole isolation and annular isolation in intermediate and surface casing.
The Reflex® HP can operate in a wide range of well conditions, including high and ultra-low temperature environments, large wash-outs, and scenarios requiring fast or ultra-slow swelling. It is capable of handling high chloride concentrations, exotic brines, high water cut, and deep water sea-bed thermal applications.
Key features of the Reflex® HP include:
- Pressure capability up to 15,000 psi
- Available in oil, water, and combination swelling compounds
- Element lengths up to 10 meters (35 feet)
- Compatibility with standard API or custom pipe sizes
- Optional high-grip end rings for enhanced sealing
The technology has demonstrated a 100% success rate in over 40,000 installations worldwide, including challenging high-pressure and fracturing applications. Reflex® HP packers are manufactured in-house, allowing for short lead times and customization to suit specific well requirements. The swellable compounds used in Reflex® HP have been extensively tested for swell speed, maximum differential pressure capability, and final swell volumes, with data incorporated into Reactive Downhole Tools' proprietary "SWELLOMETER" simulation software for optimal design and performance prediction.
