Retrievable Bridge Plugs
WRP Bridge Plug
Weatherford’s WRP bridge plug is a retrievable plug set by conventional wireline or a hydraulic setting tool, such as the HST, to isolate temporarily the lower part of a wellbore. The standard caged, bidirectional carbide slips provide long life and durability and simple, effective anchoring to the casing.The compact plug enables easy retrieval on tubing, coiled tubing, or sand line with a retrieval tool. After the tool engages the top of the plug, the equalizing valve opens before the plug is released, preventing it from moving with differential pressure. Elastomeric sealing elements hold pressure from above and below.
Applications•Zonal isolation•Wellhead repair and replacement•Casing-pressure testing•Acidizing, fracturing, and cementing
Features,AdvantagesandBenefits• The compact design enables deployment through tight doglegs and
short lubricators.• The swab-resistant packing element enables a faster run in, reducing the
rig time to set the plug.• The bridge plug can be set by wireline, coiled tubing, or a hydraulic
setting tool and retrieved by a sand line or coiled tubing, depending on the well conditions.
• The straight-pull release provides simple operation on the rig.• The rotational safety release enables the operator to release the plug if thestraightpullhasdifficulties,reducingrigtime.
• The equalizing valve opens before the plug is released to prevent movement from differential pressure and enable safe plug retrieval.
•The overshot washes to the gauge ring for easy, dependable retrieval.

Retrievable Bridge Plugs
TS Spring-Loaded Retrieving Tool
Weatherford’s TS spring-loaded retrieving tool runs and retrieves the TS-U retrievable bridge plug. A one-quarter left turn of the tool releases the plug. Thefield-proventooldesignminimizestheriskofitsbreakingawayfromthe plug during retrieval. The running J-pins can exit the tool only after the spring force is overcome.
Applications•Running and retrieving a TS-U plug
Features,AdvantagesandBenefits•The simple four-part tool automatically attaches to the plug during weight
set-down and requires only a one-quarter turn for release, making the tool easy to run and redress.
•The spring-loaded design minimizes tool separation from the plug, reducing the possibility that the plug breaks away during running and retrieval.
•The one-quarter left turn for plug release provides reliable setting in applications with limited rotational movement.
•The plug locks in place on the J-track with the heavy-duty spring and positive loading, preventing premature plug release and misruns and saving time.
•The strong compression spring keeps the plug J-pins securely locked in the tool jay until enough weight collapses the spring, enabling tool removal.

Retrievable Bridge Plugs
B and BII Retrievable Bridge Plugs
Weatherford’s B and BII retrievable bridge plugs selectively isolate zones for acidizing, fracturing, squeeze cementing, and testing in shallow applications. Each plug can also inexpensively and temporarily plug a well for the installation or removal of wellhead equipment. The BII plug has enclosed slips for easy entry into liners.Both plugs operate identically. Pressure from above or below the plug sets the slips and anchors the plug. The large controlled bypass enables the plug to be run and then retrieved by tubing or a sand line without a swabbing risk.
Applications•Deviated wells and liners•General service•Acidizing•Fracturing•Squeeze cementing•Testing•Temporary abandonment
Features,AdvantagesandBenefits•The plug may be run with a service packer to straddle zones, saving the
time of two runs to set a plug and a retrievable service packer.•Theoptionalrightorleftretrievingtoolprovidesflexibilityontherig.•The straight pull to release enables the plug to be retrieved reliably in a
highly deviated well and liner.•The plug can be retrieved on a sand line or tubing, depending on the well
conditions.
Options•Bothplugsareavailablewithballcatcherstopreventretrievaldifficulties.

Retrievable Bridge Plugs
Well Suspension Bridge Plug
Weatherford’s well suspension bridge plug is a high-pressure valve used with the PST packer to plug the wellbore temporarily during operations. With the valve open, the plug enables testing below it while containing pressures from below inside the work string. With the valve closed, the string and annulus can be tested independently.
Applications•Well-suspension operations•Testing•Acidizing•Fracturing
Features,AdvantagesandBenefits•The overshot seals enable pressure testing to check the plug integrity
from below before overshot pulling, eliminating plug pulling and redressing because of a leak.
•The overshot can be locked onto the valve for work-string testing before valve opening, ensuring string integrity.
•Pressure below the plug is contained within the work string during equalization, ensuring safety and well control in shallow applications.
•The work string and annulus can be tested independently after the valve is closed, ensuring that the plug holds pressure above and below for safety and well control.

Weatherford’s FracGuard 300 series composite bridge plugs isolate the formation above the plug for fracturing operations in both single- and multiple-zone stimulation applications. Operational integrity at high temperatures for extended periods of time sets FracGuard plugs apart. They can be run on tubing, drillpipe, coiled tubing, or wireline using conventional bridge plug setting equipment. FracGuard bridge plugs excel in stacked applications, achieving reliable operation and rapid drillout using conventional drilling methods and equipment, including coiled-tubing drilling motors. They work extremely well in underbalanced applications and in highly deviated, horizontal, or multilateral wellbores.FracGuardplugsareavailableinmorestandardconfigurationsthanmostcompetitors’plugs—for3-1/2-to95/8-in.casing.Theflexibilityofthesetools can save operational time while protecting sensitive formations.
Applications•Single- or multiple-zone stimulation•Vertical, deviated, horizontal, or multilateral wellbore•Underbalanced, multiple-zone completions•Temporary well plugging
Features,AdvantagesandBenefits•Temperature rating to 300°F (149°C). •Pressure rating to 10,000 psi (689 bar). •Plugs hold full differential pressure from above and below. •Beveled bottom prevents body from spinning, thus decreasing
drillout time.•Composite construction produces lightweight cuttings when drilled out
and allows running of multiple plugs to isolate a series of zones, reducing rig time and the number of operations required to fracture multiple zones in the same well.
•Composite construction and lack of wrought metal parts (such as brass or steel) save time by allowing quick drillout with conventional tri-cone or junk-mill bits and result in lightweight cuttings that lift easily and minimize plugging of surface equipment.

Weatherford’s FracGuard composite setting sleeve for composite plugs is used to allow perforation stimulation above the composite plug to proceed simultaneously as wireline setting tools are pulled from the well. The sleeve remains downhole with the composite plug, effectively reducing the overall OD of the remaining wireline assembly. This advantage over conventional steel sleeves allows pumping of perforation ball sealers past the wireline setting assembly as it is retrieved from the well when continuous stimulation is wanted. Currently the only setting sleeve on the market that is made of composite material, it is easily and quickly drilled out.
Applications•Multiple-zone perforate/fracture stimulations•Continuous fracturing applications
Features,AdvantagesandBenefits•Because the setting sleeve remains downhole after the composite
plug is set, the OD of the wireline assembly is greatly reduced. This advantage allows simultaneous retrieval of the wireline assembly while pumpingperforationballsealers.Theendbenefitiseliminationofthenonproductive time spent pulling large-OD steel sleeves from the well before stimulation.
•Leaving the composite sleeve in the hole reduces the chance of sticking the setting assembly and, in a plug-and-shoot operation, the perforating guns as well.
•The composite material is strong enough to withstand plug setting forces and saves time by allowing quick drillout with conventional tri-cone bits or junk mills. The composite material also results in lightweight cuttings that lift easily and minimize plugging of surface equipment.

Weatherford’s FracGuard convertible bridge/frac plug combines the pressure-control design of a bridge plug with theflowbackcapabilityofafracplug,allinonetool.Itoperatesasabridgeplugwhensetsothatpressureabovethe plug can be reduced to perform the next perforate-and-stimulate operation, limiting the need for use of an expensive grease-injection head for pressure control. The unique valve assembly enclosed within the plug allows the operator to convert to a frac plug before or during the next fracturing operation without intervention. This patent-pending two-in-one capability is a unique advantage, available only with this tool.
Applications•Multiple-zone fracture stimulation completions
Features,AdvantagesandBenefits•Convertible construction offers the advantage of a bridge plug. The plug is run and set as a bridge plug, allowing
complete pressure control above the plug during perforating in stack-and-frac operations. •Convertible construction also allows for pressure control when this tool is run as a kill plug, eliminating the need
for pressure control while tripping in to drillout. The plug can be converted before drilling so that pressure under the plug can be reduced, limiting the need for expensive snubbing equipment and other pressure-control devices.
•Convertible construction also offers the advantage of a frac plug. The plug converts on demand to a top-check ball-fracplugsothatfracoperationsandsubsequentflowbackthroughtheplugcanoccurwithouttheneedforimmediate plug drillout. This advantage accelerates production readiness of the well.

Weatherford’s FracGuard pumpdown composite plug is run on standard wireline into highly deviated or horizontal wells, where e-coil or standard coiled tubing would typically be required. The ability to run this plug on wireline,assistedbypumppressure,significantlyacceleratesoperations,reduces costly rig time and eliminates the need for expensive wireline tractors.Inaddition,thepumpdownassemblycanbeconfiguredwithperforating guns above the setting tool so that the plug can be set and one or more zones perforated in one trip, reducing rig time.The system pushes the plug into horizontal sections using pump pressure on wireline. Pump rates of 6 to 12 bbl/min carry the plug and setting tools to target before setting. The plug runs at conventional wireline speeds in straight-hole sections and the patent-pending roller system reduces run-in friction on wireline in both straight and horizontal sections. The wiper system creates a pressure drop across the front of the plug, which carries the assembly into horizontal sections with low-pump rate.
Applications•Multiple-zone fracture stimulation completions, especially in extended-
reach horizontal and highly deviated wells•Medium- to high-pressure clear-water fracturing applications
Features,AdvantagesandBenefits•Drag-reducing design allows the plug to be run on wireline, accelerating
operations, reducing rig time, and eliminating the need for expensive wireline tractors.
•The wiper system creates a pressure differential across the top of the plug, which carries the assembly into horizontal sections with low-pump rate. This capability removes the time and costs associated with e-coil, coiled tubing, and wireline tractors.
•Jet ports above and below the wiper ring wash away debris ahead of the plugandcreatefluidbypasstoacceleratetrippinginthehole.Thejetports aid in running the plug past sand bridges and debris in horizontal sections, reducing the likelihood of premature plug setting and sticking.
•The roller/wiper system makes single-trip plugging and perforating possible by conveying perforating guns above the plug, enhancing operationalefficiency.
•The roller system also allows for standoff for the composite plug when running on coiled tubing in horizontal applications. This capability allows for a reduction in friction forces and limits damage to the plug. A hydraulic setting tool can be used to initiate setting of the plug, eliminating the need for e-coil.
•The pumpdown composite plug is rapidly milled out with conventional milling or drilling tools on coiled tubing or jointed pipe.

Weatherford’s Sand Biter plug is designed to accelerate composite plug drillout in sand. Under normal composite plug drillout, the remnants of the composite plug fall to the top of the next plug downhole. The bevel on the bottom guide locks to the next plug, preventing rotation during drillout. In certain applications, however, underdisplaced frac sand accumulates below, and the plug remnants rest on the sand. Drilling spins the remnants, impeding drillout.Thespecializedbiting-toothprofileonthemuleshoebottomofthe Sand Biter plug, however, bites into the sand, preventing the spinning action and allowing drillout to proceed more quickly and easily.The Sand Biter plug is an adaptation of Weatherford’s proven composite plug.Thebiting-toothprofilecanbeincorporatedonallFracGuard plugs.
Applications•Multiple-zone fracturing jobs in which a large amount of sand is left in the
wellbore due to underdisplaced sand fracturing.
Features,AdvantagesandBenefits•The biting-tooth design on the muleshoe bottom of the plug grips
plug drillout remnants to prevent them from spinning during drillout. This advantage saves rig time by accelerating and simplifying drillout, especiallyinenvironmentsofhigh-sandflowback.

Weatherford’s FracGuardslim-ODplugsallowgreaterfluidbypassasthey are run in the hole to double or even triple the speed of running a conventional plug. The smaller OD leaves a bypass area around the plugs that is 63 percent greater than that for conventional frac plugs. With this advantage, these plugs can be run on wireline at speeds up to 300 ft (90 m) per minute compared to normal running speeds of conventional composite plugs of about 100 ft (30 m) per minute. In spite of the smaller OD, the plug maintains the conventional pressure rating.

Rather than using conventional cast-iron cement retainers, which can contaminate the open hole below on drillout, the cementing plug incorporates aflappervalveinthebottomofthe composite plug. The slurry is pumped directly down the surface pipe, and a wiper plug lands on top of the composite plug. This design also eliminates the waiting time for cement to cure when a retrievable packer and drillpipe are used. As a composite plug, the surface pipe cementing plug then can be drilled out in about half the time of a conventional cast-iron cement retainer.
Applications•Remedial cementing operations
on shallow surface casing
Features, Advantages andBenefits•No drillpipe is required for
remedial cementing, reducing the number of steps needed to achieve a remedial cementing squeeze job.
•Composite material reduces the amount of openhole contamination from plug drillout debris, averting debris-associateddifficultiesinsubsequent operations.
•Composite construction is much easier and faster to drill than conventional cast-iron cement retainers, saving valuable rig time.
FracGuard® Surface Pipe Cementing Plug
Plug is set on wireline.
Cement is pumped down casing from surface into
perfs, followed by wiper plug.
Wiper plug bumps on plug. Flapper valve closes and preventsflowback.

Weatherford’s BRS bit-release sub is activated by pump pressure to drop the drill bit from the tubing string after the drillout run. The bit is released when a ball is dropped into the lower sub to create the hydraulic pressure needed to separate from the upper sub.The BRS saves rig time by eliminating the need to pull the drillstring with the bit and run the production string. Only a single trip is needed to clean outandflangeupforproduction.Hundredsofsuccessfuldeploymentshave proven the reliability of the BRS.
Applications•Flanged-up completions•Emergency bit release
Features,AdvantagesandBenefits•The BRS design eliminates work-string rental, reducing drilling costs.•The drill bit is released only after the valve is actuated, preventing
inadvertent release of the bit and another trip.•The torque, tensile, and compression ratings of the BRS exceed those

Bridge Plugs and Cement Retainers
Weatherford’s HBP hydro-mechanical bridge plug is a drillable, high-pressure plug run on tubing or drillpipe to isolate the lower part of a wellbore. Hydraulic pressure and tubing tension set the plug. A built-in hydraulic setting tool in the top of the plug sets the top slips. Tubing tension combined with the pressure is applied to complete the setting. Then the tool automatically shears off for retrieval from the well. Alternatively, right rotation can release the tubing.
Applications•Deviated and horizontal wells•Temporary and permanent plugging•Abandonment
Features,AdvantagesandBenefits• The compact design enables use in deviated wells.• The full-circle slips provide a large contact area to minimize
casing damage.• The expanding full-circle rings support the plug to prevent
element extrusion.• The shear or rotational release provides options for releasing the plug
after deployment.• Construction with drillable materials enables the plug to be milled or
drilled out to save the time and expense of retrieval.

Bridge Plugs and Cement Retainers
Weatherford’s HM-1 bridge plug is a permanent cast-iron plug set with hydraulic pressure and mechanical pull to isolate the lower part of a wellbore. The plug uses a setting tool. Changing the setting sleeve enables one tool to be used for 4 1/2- through 5 1/2-in. (114.3- through 139.7-mm) casing. Right rotation of the tool releases the plug.
Applications•Squeeze cementing•Fracturing•Temporary and permanent zonal isolation•Well abandonment
Features,AdvantagesandBenefits•The compact design enables use in deviated wells.• One-piece slips eliminate the risk of premature setting when running in thehole,avoidingthedifficultyandexpenseofplugretrieval and resetting.
• Hydraulic pressure combined with mechanical pull to set the plug ensures that the setting tool releases and prevents downhole tool loss.
• The right rotation of the setting tool to release the plug differs from the left rotation to set it, preventing inadvertent, costly errors.
• Construction with drillable materials enables the plug to be milled or drilled out to save the time and expense of retrieval.
Options•High- and medium-pressure plugs are available in most sizes.

Retrievable Service Packers
Weatherford’s HD compression-set retrievable service packer isolates the annulus from the production conduit for general service. The packer can be run with a mechanically set bridge plug to straddle intervals.
The internal bypass provides circulation around the packer and faster trips with less swabbing. Hydraulically operated upper hold-down buttons anchor the packer against high differential pressure from below. Backup rings on all O-rings provide reliable sealing at high temperatures and pressures. An internal unloader enables circulation below the buttons, easing packer retrieval.
Applications•General service•Squeeze cementing•Testing and treating•Cased-hole production testing
Features,AdvantagesandBenefits•The carbide slip and buttons improve durability and enable setting in
high-grade casing.•A one-quarter turn sets the packer, and a pickup unsets it, simplifying
operation on the rig.•The large-diameter hold-down buttons help protect against
casing damage.•The heavy-duty mandrel supports high hang-off weights, and its full bore
enables the easy passage of wireline tools and maximum pump rates.
Options•The packer is available with a left-turn set, automatic release jay and
other elastomers for hostile environments.

Retrievable Service Packers
Weatherford’sHDLcompression-setservicepackerisamodifiedversionofWeatherford’s longstanding HD service packer. The HDL packer’s setting stroke is longer to provide easier opening of the unloader valve when setting the packer. By preventing disturbance of the lower slip and drag block assembly, this feature helps to eliminate the risk of unsetting the packer.TheHDLpackerwasspecificallydesignedfortotalcorepenetration(TCP) and drillstem testing applications which often require setting the packer,followedbyopeningtheunloadervalvetocirculatefluids.The HDL packer sets with a quarter-turn rotation and slack-off weight. Standard drag blocks, lower slips, and holddown buttons are equipped with carbide inserts for extra gripping ability. The hydraulically operated holddown buttons anchor the packer during operations, creating high-pressure differential from below the packer. The packer has an integral, internal unloader valve that allows for equalization of pressure or for circulation below the packer before the tool is unset. The unloader valve also enables circulation around the holddown body, making it possible to remove debris which would otherwise interfere with retrieval. The capability to bypass through the valve and packer allows for faster trip times with less swabbing.The HDL packer is also well-suited to function as a TCP “shoot and pull” or drillstem test packer. Its long stroke allows for opening the unloader without unsetting the packer. All internal threads on the mandrel are high-strength, stub-acme threads. Interchangeable end subs are available to easily switch from tubing to drillpipe threads.
Applications•TCP operations•Drillstem testing•Casing production testing•Squeeze cementing
Features,AdvantagesandBenefits•A one-quarter turn sets the packer, and a pickup unsets it, decreasing trip
time while providing operational time and cost savings.
•The automatic jay mechanism is standard, simplifying operations and reducing rig time.
•The HDL packer’s heavy-duty mandrel supports high-tensile loads, enabling heavy strings to hang from the packer.
•Thepacker’sfield-provencarbideslips,buttons,anddragblocksarestandard and provide long service life.

Retrievable Service Packers
Weatherford’s CSTH storm packer is a heavy-duty, retrievable packer set by compression that holds differential pressure from above and below and isolates the wellbore during suspended drilling. Run with a back check-valve system, the packer secures the well during wellhead repair or a weather emergency. The packer can also be used for conventional service, such as acidizing, fracturing, squeeze cementing, and casing testing.A three-quarter turn sets the packer, and a straight pull releases it. The heavy-walled mandrel with tool-joint connections enables the packer to be set shallowly with the drillstring weight suspended below.
Applications•Cased-hole drillstem and production tests•Squeeze cementing and treatment•Wellhead repair•Weather emergencies
Features,AdvantagesandBenefits•The tool-joint connections on the mandrel make up directly to the drillpipe
without crossover subs, saving rig time and inventory.•The heavy-duty mandrel supports high hang-off weights.•The high tail-pipe rating enables long drillstring deployment.•The standard carbide buttons on the caged slips and holddown improve
durability and enable setting in high-grade casing.•The three-quarter turn to set and straight pull to release provide simple operation,evenonfloatingrigs.
•The hydraulic hold-down pistons help to secure the packer in place, preventing pressure differential from unsetting it.
•The keyed upper and lower connections enable the packer to transmit high torque without overloading them.
•Thelarge,built-inbypassenablesequalizationandhighfluid-circulationrates for debris removal.
•The packer has few parts to take apart, making it easy and inexpensive to redress.

The assembly has two packing-element sets to seal the top and bottom of the interval effectively.
Applications•Perforation cleanout•Selective acidizing and stimulation
Features,AdvantagesandBenefits•The standard tubing connections enable hydraulic tong makeup and
breakout to save rig time.•Theinternalbypassacrossbothelementsetsenablesfluidstoequalize
quickly and reduces the swabbing effect during run-in and retrieval for faster running.
•A one-quarter turn initially sets the packer, a pickup unsets it, and a slackoff resets it, simplifying operation over long intervals.
•The hydraulic hold-down pistons help to secure the packer in place, preventing pressure differential from unsetting it.
•The three-element packing systems on the interval top and bottom help to ensure a correct setting and packoff.
•Compressive forces on the booster sleeve between the sealing elements expand the elements radially outward to engage the casing, reducing the packoff force required.
•The adjustable spacing enables the isolation of short perforated intervals toensurethatalltheperforationsacceptstimulationfluids.
•Thefull-boremandrelenablesamaximumflowratefromthewell.•The manual jay mechanism enables repositioning without pipe rotation.•The simple design with few components to disassemble and reassemble
makes the packer easy and economical to redress.

Retrievable Service Packers
Weatherford’s 8000 series casing scraper removes cement and mud sheath, scale, rust and other foreign matter from the casing wall during bit runs. The scraper smoothes the casing wall, preparing it for running and setting production packers and squeeze tools. The scraper has six blades arranged to provide the maximum cutting surface for vertical and rotational scraping.
Applications•Cleanout bit runs•Casing maintenance before running a packer
Features,AdvantagesandBenefits•The six-blade design provides 360° casing coverage for
superior scraping.•The one-piece retainer secures the blades.•The splined two-piece body provides maximum blade retention.•The rugged cast and heat-treated blades provide a long service life.•While scraping the casing wall, the blades act as casing drift to ensure
that tools can be run through the casing without sticking.•The spring-loaded setting scrapes multiple-weight casing strings in a
single trip, saving rig time.•The rugged design requires minimal maintenance, saving rig time
and cost.
