The Obex EcoLock packer serves as a cost-effective mechanical barrier to mitigate low pressure gas or fluid migration and deliver isolation assurance.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - HOUSTON - July 24, 2023 – Halliburton Company (NYSE: HAL) today introduced Obex EcoLock®, a new compression-set packer that helps prevent sustained casing pressure (SCP). The Obex EcoLock packer serves as a cost-effective mechanical barrier to mitigate low pressure gas or fluid migration and deliver isolation assurance.
The Obex EcoLock packer, the newest addition to the Halliburton family of compression-set packers, is built upon the gas-tight, V0-rated Obex GasLock® packer design. The Obex EcoLock packer provides V6-rated isolation and can support multiple-stage cementing with optional integral cementing ports and an internal closing sleeve. It is currently available for 7-in. and 9 5/8-in casing designs with additional sizes in the future.
“Obex EcoLock is an excellent economic alternative to inflatable and expandable packers to deliver isolation assurance independent of losses or circulation pressures,” said Matt Lang, vice president of Cementing. “The addition of this tool to our Obex packer portfolio enables us to deliver a suite of API/ISO validated casing annular barriers to keep pressure away from the surface and support cemented barriers.”
