PES Engineering
The First Down Oil Services hydro-firing tool, which is considered a self-priming centrifugal pump, is patent pending and has a PE stamp from Practical Engineering Solutions. This hydro-firing head is a 2-in-1 solution that allows you to pump a full column of cement immediately after the bridge plug is confirmed set. You'll notice that the tool activates a standard wireline pressure setting tool that can now run on pipe, shearing the plug instantly without multiple excessive pressure.
There are several challenges with the current method of hydro-firing bridge plugs. The process is time-consuming, laborious, and expensive. It was this assessment that lead First Down Oil Services to develop a faster way; easier way; and less expensive way.
Conventional Tool Vs. First Down’s Hydro-Firing Head
Convention Tool
- Multiple pressures are applied to set.
- Tension pulls are required to release.
- Must be set in clean fluids.
- Over pressuring will damage tool.
- Tool must be sent in for rebuilding.
- Tool is transported in baskets.
First Down’s Hydro-Firing Head
- Single pressure applied to set.
- Instant, automatic shearing from tool.
- Can be set in dirty fluids or heavy mud.
- Over pressuring will not damage the tool.
- Easily rebuilt multiple times on location.
- Tool is transported in hand carry case.
2 in 1 Solution
The Hydro-Firing Head provides a 2-in-1 solution that allows you to pump a full column of cement immediately after the bridge plug is confirmed set.
- Shortest BHA in the industry (59 inches)
- Suitcase size allows for simple mobilization
- Can be used for multiple settings
- Can be rebuilt on location within 5 minutes
The tool activates a standard wireline pressure setting tool. This is a tool that can run on pipe. It will shear the plug instantly without any multiple excessive pressures and tension pulling or possible auto-fill valve failures.
