Isolation Packer HP-2 Hydraulic Set 7" Packer
Setting Mechanism
The Ballycatter WC-HP-2 Isolation Packer is hydraulically set, meaning it is activated using tubing pressure rather than mechanical manipulation. During deployment, the packer is run into the wellbore as part of a stacked packer system, positioned above another hydraulic retrievable packer.
Once in place, hydraulic pressure is applied through the tubing, which compresses the packing element system, forcing it outward against the casing wall. Simultaneously, the slips engage to anchor the packer in position, ensuring a secure, pressure-tight seal within the isolation zone. The hydraulic setting eliminates the need for tubing rotation, making it particularly effective for deviated wells or conditions where mechanical manipulation is restricted.
Once set, the packer remains mechanically locked in place, independent of trapped hydraulic pressure. This design ensures that differential pressures, wellbore fluid movement, or thermal expansion and contraction do not compromise the seal, maintaining long-term zonal isolation. The packer can be used for treatment, injection, or production operations, providing a stable isolation barrier between zones for efficient fluid control and optimized reservoir management.
Retrieval Mechanism
The WC-HP-2 Isolation Packer is retrieved using a straight-pull shear release system, which allows for efficient and controlled removal without requiring tubing rotation.
When an upward force is applied to the tubing, the shear-release pins disengage, allowing the packing elements to relax and the slips to retract. This mechanical release mechanism ensures that retrieval forces remain unaffected by differential pressure, providing operators with a predictable and reliable method for packer removal.
For added flexibility, the shear-release force can be adjusted before running the packer to accommodate different well conditions.
The compact, debris-resistant design of the packer facilitates smooth retrieval, even in doglegged or deviated wells, reducing the risk of tool sticking.
By providing a simple, efficient release mechanism, the WC-HP-2 minimizes rig time and operational costs, making it a practical and cost-effective solution for multiple-zone completions and casing isolation applications.

The 2” Tubing End Locator is a mechanical downhole tool used to determine the physical end of production tubing during well intervention or maintenance activities. It is a critical component in operations where it is necessary to confirm tubing length or avoid tool deployment beyond the tubing’s bottom, such as during setting packers, logging, or fishing operations.
In a typical well setup, production tubing does not always terminate at a predictable or recorded depth. The tubing end locator provides a reliable way to identify the true end of the tubing string by using a spring-loaded finger mechanism that reacts upon reaching the tubing’s bottom. This reaction is detectable at the surface, providing the operator with a clear and immediate indication without relying solely on depth readings or assumptions.
This specific model is intended for tubing sizes ranging from 2" to 2-1/2" outer diameter. It is designed with a maximum tool O.D. of 1.750", which ensures clearance inside the tubing, and includes a 1.375" fishing neck, a standardized feature that allows the tool to be retrieved if necessary using conventional pulling tools.
Threading is provided on both ends for integration into tool strings: a 15/16 - 10 UN pin connection on top and a 1 - 11.1/2 NPT box connection at the bottom. This allows the locator to be run inline with other mechanical or wireline-conveyed tools. These standard thread forms ensure compatibility with widely used downhole equipment and deployment systems.
Constructed from high-strength alloy steel, the tool is designed to withstand the mechanical stress, temperature variations, and chemical exposure typical in oil and gas well environments. While not a pressure-control device, its materials and design are selected to perform reliably under downhole pressure conditions encountered during standard intervention work.
The 2” Tubing End Locator provides a mechanical means of depth verification that does not rely on electronics, sensors, or depth counters. It is a simple, durable, and effective tool for reducing uncertainty and improving operational safety in the wellbore.

Surface Controlled Annular Vent and Sleeve Valve 2 inch
An annular vent sleeve valve communicates between the casing annulus and producing formation. The valve is a hydraulically operated sliding sleeve device like a surface controlled subsurface safety valve with a hydraulic piston and a power spring to maintain the valve in a normally closed position. The valve is used with a bull plug on top or as an annular safety valve by providing annular bypass while control pressure is applied. With an electrical feedthrough device, this valve functions through a single packer mandrel as an electric power cable passage and annular bypass. On a dual hydraulic packer, the valve operates by a common hydraulic control line that sets the packer and operates the tubing-retrievable safety valve. Hydraulic pressure from the control line shifts the valve open to create a flow path across the packer in the annulus. Spring force closes the valve upon loss of control-line pressure to the piston. If the valve becomes inoperable or closed, an emergency shear feature allows fluid to be pumped into the producing formation from the annulus. Applications » Gas lift and electric submersible pump situations Features » Accurate fluid level shot during pumping because of large ported area through the vent sleeve » Maximum gas vent flow area allows increased gas flow rates and lower circulating pressures » Valve will shut off flow from either direction — production or injection *description excerpted from manufacturers catalogue.

Hydraulic Control Line for SCSSSV
Control lines are assembled on reels filled with fluid and pressure tested. Reel spools are designed so pressure can be applied at any time during running to check control-line integrity. Hydraulic control lines are made from two different manufacturing processes that conform to ASTM specifications: (1) seamless and (2) welded and sunk. Seamless Tubing is fabricated from a solid rod. The process involves forcing a mandrel or punch through the solid rod to form a tube. The continuous lengths available from this process are limited. Welded and Sunk Tubing is fabricated from flat stock. The process involves rolling the stock into a cylinder and welding the seam. Once in tube form, it is drawn through a die to achieve the proper OD. This process is considerably less costly than the seamless method and yields lines available in continuous lengths with no butt-welded connections. Optional single and dual lines with protective encapsulation are available. The encapsulated material is suitable for use in most annular fluids. Encapsulation protects lines from damage during installation and simplifies the running process. The dual-encapsulated line can be used with “balanced” SCSSVs or injection wells where multiple lines are required. As an option, a protective cable between two control lines is available. Single-encapsulated lines have no cable; however, a protective cable on either side of the control line can be ordered. Installation Control lines are attached to subsurface controls with appropriate tube fitting and pressure tested before running into the wellbore. Line spools are hung in the derrick, and control line is paid out as tubing is run. Applications » For SCSSVs Features » Different lengths of control line in continuous coil » Stainless and alloy 825 materials offered » Control lines offered in various encapsulated options » All control lines conform to ASTM specifications » Lines available in other sizes on request *information sourced from manufacturer View Details

The Ballycatter Mech-1 is a retrievable, compression-set mechanical packer designed for low-pressure production, casing integrity testing, and well intervention operations. Built with a long-stroke mandrel and a large bypass area, it allows unrestricted fluid circulation while running in hole. The bypass is controlled by a face-seal valve that automatically closes during setting, fully isolating the annulus once the packer is engaged.
Setting is achieved via a mechanical J-slot system using standard right-hand (or optional left-hand) rotation. Once the tool is positioned, applying set-down weight activates the slips and compresses the packing elements, sealing off the formation below. Retrieval is straightforward—lifting the tubing string engages the J-slot and reopens the bypass valve for safe circulation and recovery.
The Mech-1 features a rocker-type slip design for positive casing engagement and can be repositioned if required. Its straightforward operation, reliable sealing, and retrievability make it a practical solution for conventional production completions, casing leak diagnostics, and test operations where hydraulic setting is not required.

MC Injection Safety Valve 3-1/2 inch
MC (flapper-type) injection valves are used in injection wells to automatically shut-in the tubing string when injection stops or flow reverses. MC injection valves are spring-loaded, wireline-retrievable valves with large bores. The MC injection valves also feature sealing areas that are out of the direct flow path. These valves are designed to be held open by injection pressure for fluid passage. If injection flow becomes static or reverses for any reason, the spring and/or reverse flow causes the valves to close. These valves are designed to remain closed until pressure differential across the valves is equalized and injection is resumed.

2.62 inch Water Injection Valve WI
The WI retrievable injection valve is a high-performance, high-flow rate injection valve. High throughput is achieved by a unique valve configuration that minimizes turbulent and potentially erosive flow. Operation is not dependent on a specific flow rate, pressure, or setting depth, thus negating the need for adjustment over time. The valve incorporates a metal-to-metal valve and seat energized by the combination of an integral spring and well pressure acting from below. The WI injection valve can be deployed on a wireline lock or through-tubing pack-off device, providing flexibility not available with alternative injection valve systems. As a result of the simple design with fewer parts, redress and repair costs are considerably lower than those for other injection valve systems. Applications The WI injection valve is primarily used in water injection applications as an alternative to conventional tubing or wireline-set safety valves. The valve is also commonly used as a retrofit solution in water injectors in which a tubing to annulus leak has occurred. The valve can be deployed below the leak point to eliminate uncontrolled annulus pressure increases when the injection stops. Features » Compatible with all known lock systems » Dedicated designs to suit Halliburton EB0 intervention packers » Enhanced internal flow profile » Simple design and construction » Flow-loop testing performed to establish pressure drop versus pump rate *information referenced from supplier catalog.

5 1/2" Mech-2 Double Grip Mechanical Set Packer for 15.5-20 PPF Casing
Ballycatter Mech-2 Double Grip Mechanical Packer
Available sizes: 5”, 5 1/2”, 6 5/8”, 7”, 9 5/8”, and 10 3/4”
The Ballycatter Mech-2 is a retrievable, compression-set double-grip mechanical packer designed for applications where pressure differentials from below are anticipated, such as combined stimulation and production operations. Featuring opposing slips above and below the packing element, the Mech-2 ensures secure bi-directional anchoring within the casing under varying well conditions.
The tool incorporates a built-in hydraulic hold-down system located beneath the face-seal bypass valve, enabling it to resist upward forces during stimulation treatments. A unique “Differential Lock” mechanism utilizes pressure from below the packer to actuate a balance sleeve, generating additional downward force that maintains bypass valve integrity and ensures a reliable seal.
The Mech-2 is mechanically set using a long-stroke mandrel and a J-slot mechanism. Once positioned, right-hand rotation and applied set-down weight close the bypass valve, engage both slip sets, and compress the sealing elements. The formation below the packer is then fully isolated and accessible only through the tubing. To retrieve, the tubing is raised the full packer length, automatically re-engaging the J-slot and reopening the bypass for pressure equalization and circulation.
With its dual-grip design, hydraulic hold-down, and controlled setting and release process, the Mech-2 offers a robust and dependable solution for demanding applications requiring secure annular isolation and enhanced downhole stability.
