Abstract
An anchor and seal system including a slip, a cone in radially expanding communication with the slip, an element in loadable communication with the cone, and a pusher configured to radially displace the element to reside on an element retention surface of the pusher. A method for treating a borehole including running an anchor and seal system above to depth, activating a setting arrangement to anchor and seal the anchor and seal system.
Claims9
A method for treating a borehole comprising:
- running an anchor and seal system to depth, the system comprising:
- a slip;
- a cone in radially expanding communication with the slip;
- an element in loadable communication with the cone;
- and
- a pusher configured to radially displace the element to reside on an element retention surface of the pusher, the pusher prior to setting lacking direct contact with the cone;
- activating a setting arrangement to anchor and seal the anchor and seal system;
- deploying a plug to land in a seat of the anchor and seal system;
- and
- pressuring the borehole against the plug in the seat to effect a borehole operation.
A method for treating a borehole comprising running an anchor and seal system to depth, the system comprising an anchor and seal system comprising:
- a slip;
- a cone in radially expanding communication with the slip;
- an element in loadable communication with the cone;
- a backup between the cone and the element;
- and
- a pusher configured to radially displace the element to reside on an element retention surface of the pusher which presents the element for loaded contact between the pusher and a separate tubular when the element is disposed on the element retention surface wherein the pusher includes a plug seat;
- and
- activating a setting arrangement to anchor and seal the anchor and seal system;
- and
- deploying a plug to land in a seat of the anchor and seal system;
- and
- pressuring the borehole against the plug in the seat to effect a borehole operation.
A borehole system comprising:
- a tubular string;
- and
- an anchor and seal system comprising:
- a slip;
- a cone in radially expanding communication with the slip;
- and
- an element in loadable communication with the cone;
- and
- a pusher configured to radially displace the element to reside on an element retention surface of the pusher, the pusher further including a plug seat.
