Vectraset™ Hydraulic Liner Hanger Assembly
No Hidden Weaknesses
The Vectraset hanger is a premium 4.5-in. x 7.0-in. high-load liner hanger/packer for horizontal, vertical, or deviated wells. Hanger design protects slips from damage, and running tool design prevents unplanned release. The robust torque-clutch ring enables rotation during installation.
Key features
- Robust torque-ring clutch enables liner rotation, push, and pull to get the liner to bottom.
- Only the running tool is pressurized when setting the hanger to prevent surge forces on the liner and formation and save time and displacement fluid.
- Unique design prevents premature release of running tool.
- Eighteen hydraulically-actuated hanger slips distribute load evenly.
- Hanger cone design keeps slips fully recessed and protected from damage during deployment
- Primary tool release is hydraulic plus right-hand rotation. Contingency release is mechanical plus right-hand rotation.
- One-piece, high-strength mandrel; no hidden connections.
- Mechanically-set, expanding-metal, liner-top packer seal with bonded elastomeric cover that will not swab off
- Packer seal, hanger cylinder, and tieback seal stem rated to 15,000 psi (103.4 mPa) at 350° F (177° C).
- Standard 4.5-in. (101.6 mm) XT-39 connections on running tool
- Large bypass flow area around slips
- 20-ft (6.1 m) tieback extension is standard. Other lengths are available on request.
