Jettison-able Ball Seal
The lack of simple and adequate qualified downhole barriers has led to overcomplicated designs with expensive contingency options. The JABS is a bidirectional and gas tight barrier that combines fluid loss and formation isolation into a neat and seamlessly integral package.
The jettison-able ball seal - features
Integrates seamlessly into sandface completions.
Eliminates the need for both a fluid loss device and a formation barrier.
10,000psi and V0 rating makes it suitable for ongoing development and exploration.
Ball seal may be jettisoned with pressure or mechanically.
