WH-6 Hydraulic-Set
Retrievable Packer
The Weatherford WH-6 Hydraulic-Set Retrievable Packer is a compact,
economical, packer designed for low- to medium-pressure applications. The
short body length makes it ideal for tight radius deviations and horizontal
applications. The packer requires no downward mandrel movement for setting,
allowing stacked applications. Straight pull releases the packer, and built-in
bypass ports equalize pressure across the packer for ease in retrieval. The
shear-release mechanism is isolated from the packer hydraulics to allow low
release forces, even at full pressure differential.
Features
• No downward mandrel movement for setting
• Low setting pressure: 2,000 psi minimum
• Straight-pull release, adjustable up to 50,000 lb
• Shear screws isolated from hydraulic pressure
• Short overall length
• Pressure differential rating: 6,000 psi
• Material: L-80 or equivalent for H2S service
• Temperature rating: 275°F (standard trim)
Benefits
• Low shear-out force required, even at full pressure differential
• Economical design makes packer easy to redress
• May be set with rig pumps
• Stacked-packer installations with sequential setting
Applications
• Offshore oil and gas applications
• Highly deviated wells and severe doglegs
• Stacked-packer completions
• Coiled-tubing completions

SETTING PROCEDURE
Run in the hole to setting depth. (Running speed should not exceed 90 ft./min.) The Weatherford WH-6 Packer is set
by temporarily plugging the tubing string below the packer and applying pressure (see maximum / minimum chart,
page 2) inside the tubing. The tubing may be plugged by dropping a ball to seat in an expandable seating sub run
below the packer or by running a wireline plug to seat in a profile nipple or sliding sleeve run below the packer.
In installations where the Weatherford WH-6 packers are run in tandem, one temporary plug run below the bottom
packer is all that is required to set the packers. Pressuring the tubing will set all the packers simultaneously, or by
adjusting the setting shear values of each packer, the packers can be set individually.
RELEASING PROCEDURE
The Weatherford WH-6 packer is released by straight pickup on the tubing string. Tension force required to release
the packer is easily adjusted prior to running in. (See parts list for release screw values.)
OPERATION
The Weatherford WH-6 employs a lock mandrel to capture pack off forces independent of the inner mandrel, which
makes up to the production string. The lock mandrel isolates the pack off forces from the shear release screws,
allowing low shear-to-release forces regardless of pressure differential.
The overlapping piston assembly, made up of the piston and upper cone, located between the packing elements and
slips permit the packer to set without downward mandrel movement. Applied pressure is conveyed to the piston
through the bypass slots in the mandrel and the port in the lock mandrel. As pressure is applied, the piston moves
upward, packing off the elements against the shear sub. Likewise, the lower cone moves down which forces the slips
outward against the casing wall.
The packer is released with straight pull on the tubing string. Tension is pulled to shear the release screws
. The mandrel travels upward, which removes the support under the collet on the lock mandrel. The shoulder on the
mandrel stops on the lock mandrel, which lifts the lock mandrel, allowing the lower cone to fall away. The slips and
elements are allowed to move downward, unsetting the packer.
