W-Retrievable Bridgeplug

Retrievable bridgeplug for temporary wellbore isolation during stimulation treatments, wellhead maintenance and production tree maintenance.

The W-Retrievable Bridgeplug isolates the wellbore during fracturing, acidising, wellhead maintenance or temporary suspension of a producing formation.

Wireline setting allows depth correlation for accurate placement. In highly deviated wells, the plug can be deployed on coiled tubing or jointed tubing using a hydraulic setting tool fitted with a Baker E-4-style bottom adapter.

Retrieval uses the W-Retrieving Head on tubing, coiled tubing or, in some cases, slickline. The plug releases by applying set-down force followed by upward tension, with no rotation required.

Key features

  • Deployment on slickline, eSlickline, wireline or pipe

  • Wireline depth correlation for accurate placement

  • Hydraulic setting options for highly deviated wells

  • Built-in equalising feature

  • Triple seal stack

  • Retrieval without rotation

  • Alternative elastomer compounds and slimline running diameters available on request

Applications

  • Temporary wellbore isolation and suspension

  • Zonal isolation

  • Stimulation treatments, including fracturing and acidising

  • Wellhead and production tree maintenance

  • Suspension of pressure and temperature memory gauges

Operating considerations

Pressure limits depend on plug size and the direction of the applied pressure. Refer to the datasheet for the limits from above and below for the selected configuration.
