DC FracPORT

The Drillable Closeable (DC) FracPORT™ sleeve is a ball-actuated, hydraulically-activated flow port. It is run between two RockSEAL® II packers to allow specific zones of the wellbore to be isolated and selectively fractured. There are a variety of ball seat sizes, allowing multiple DC FracPORT sleeves to be run in sequence. The DC FracPORT sleeve can be drilled out to remove the ball seat and can be closed or re-opened with or without the ball seat in place for future operations.

Applications

Open and cased hole
Horizontal and vertical wells
HPHT and sour service
Selective fracturing
Selective producing
Future operations such as:
- Water and gas shut-off
- Flow control
- Re-fracturing

Features and Benefits

Ball-actuated, hydraulically-activated
Can be run in multiples to fracture several independent zones
Lower zones are isolated due to increasing ball sizes
Can be closed or re-opened with or without the ball seat in place
Adjustable activation shear
Sleeve is locked in place upon opening
Provides a flow area greater than the liner
Ball seat can be quickly milled out
Field-proven resistance to abrasion and erosion
Corrosion resistant design
