AH Hydraulic
Setting Tool
The Weatherford AH Hydraulic Setting Tool is used to convey and set the
UltraPak and BlackCat sealbore packers on a workstring. Heavy -duty
construction allows packer assembly to be worked through tight spots and into
horizontal sections. The packer is set by surface pressure, or a combination of
surface pressure and workstring tension. The packer can be tested from
surface down the annulus before the AH setting tool is released. The AH
setting tool can be released by right-hand rotation, or by optional shear release
using hydraulic pressure.
Features
• Heavy-duty construction for pushing tools into deviated or horizontal wells
• Mandrel seal allows annulus pressure-test before AH setting tool is
released
• Drillpipe connections available
• Automatic workstring fill and drain
• Adjustable start-to-set pressure
• Optional shear release when rotation is unavailable
• AH allows circulation before packer is set
Benefits
• Sets packers in high-angle and horizontal wells
• Allows packer assembly to be pushed into place
• High-strength mandrel sets packer with high-tailpipe loads
• Sets all permanent and retrievable sealbore packers
• Testing possible after setting to ensure packer integrity
Applications
• All wireline-set sealbore packer completions
• Completions with high-tailpipe loads
• Deviated and horizontal wells
• Large-casing packers

OPERATION
As pressure is applied to the tubing string, pressure enters the cylinder through the hole at the top of the lower
mandrel. This pressure creates a force down on the connector body, which in turn pushes down on the setting
sleeve. An equal and opposite force acts up on the lower mandrel. The locking nut in the packer mechanically holds
the setting force in the tool. These forces (when proper pressure is applied) combine to set the slips and pack-off the
element.
WARNING: Packer assemblies, which are plugged below the setting tool, do not require the use
of a ball in the AH Setting Tool. The use of a setting ball when the packer is plugged may
cause the setting tool to be differentially stuck in the packer.
SETTING PROCEDURE
Run the packer and setting tool to setting depth and drop the setting ball down the tubing. (The fall rate in fresh water
is approximately 100 ft/min.) After the ball has seated, apply pressure down the tubing (see setting tool usage chart)
and hold pressure for a minimum of 10 minutes. Pull tension to insure packer is set. After packer is set, release
pressure and set weight down on the packer. If desired, tension may be pulled again to insure packer is set. If
desired, pressure may be applied down the annulus above the packer to test packer seat. Pull slight tension on tool
and rotate tubing (12 to 15 rounds) to the right at the packer to release from the packer. Setting tool may now be
pulled from wellbore.
