Meet the legacy Model FH™ Hydraulic Setting Tool. Developed by Alpha Oil Tools over 25 years ago and trusted world-wide, the Model FH™ Hydraulic Setting Tool is meticulously engineered to efficiently run and fully set the Model FH™ Sleeve Valve Cement Retainer, allowing for seamless cement squeezing or spotting in a single trip. While particularly recommended for deviated wells where mechanical or wireline set cement retainers may not be suitable, its straightforward operation and easy clean-up make it equally ideal for applications on drill pipe or tubing.
Rotation is unnecessary; simply run the tool to the predetermined setting depth, drop the ball, and then apply pressure to either the coiled tubing, drill pipe, or tubing to trigger the shear release. The FH™ Hydraulic Setting Tool fully sets the FH™ Cement Retainer, unlocks the ball seat, closes the circulation ports, opens the bypass, and automatically compensates setting travel. Subsequently, the sliding sleeve valve within the cement retainer can be controlled by picking up 2″ to close and setting down weight to open, followed by squeezing. Cement can also be placed on top of the cement retainer, with the large bypass area through the tool helping to prevent swabbing.
Please note that the ball seat cannot be pumped out until the setting sequence is complete, ensuring optimal performance and safety.
