Series 4020 - Hydrostatic Setting Tool (Non-Explosive)

The TTS Series 4020 Hydrostatic Setting Tool is a non-explosive setting tool used to provide the stroke and force required to set bridge plugs, packers, cement retainers, and other tension bolt/shear ring released tools. The tool utilizes a non-explosive actuator to allow bottomhole pressure (BHP) to enter the tool. The BHP acting upon the internal piston area generates the required amount of force to sever tension bolts or shear rings that commonly attach the plug/packer to the setting tool, all without the use of explosives. The Hydrostatic Setting Tool eliminates the dangers associated with handling explosives and the lost time and inconvenience of the imposed radio silence required when explosives are utilized. Additionally, the logistics of acquiring, permitting, and shipping explosives is eliminated, making operations in remote areas easier.

Tools are designed as modular multi-stage version. Depending on BHP and the shear value requirement, an additional stage(s) may be required. The addition of a stage increases the piston area to generate additional force from the BHP, thus allowing higher tension bolt/shear ring values to be used or a lower BHP requirement. The lower end of the setting tool emulates the explosive version allowing the same setting sleeves to be used for both models.
