Plugs & Packers
Coming from the same stable as Cflex technology, Archer has developed the gas-tight VMB family of retrievable plugs, one of a number of breakthrough technologies that has raised the industry standard in securing and maintaining well integrity.
VMB technology is tested and certified to the rigorous ISO 14310 V0 standard, which requires testing with gas above and below the barrier element, cycling of pressure and temperature, and the ability to remain completely leak free.
Unique design features of the VMB plug enable multiple sets during a single trip, shorter running assemblies and through-tubing access – all adding to dramatically reduced deployment cycles, increased flexibility and greater security.
Completing our range of mechanical barriers, Archer also supplies a wide selection of bridge plugs and cement retainers. For example, our sleeve valve cement retainer is a safe, reliable, fast and inexpensive means of placing a cement retainer at a predetermined depth in the casing.
