Abstract

See full text

A method of completing wells comprising: an inflatable packer used to plug the borehole below the producing formations; casing being run from the surface to a point above the producing formation; the casing annulus being sealed off above the producing formation; the producing formation being underreamed and gravel packed to improve productivity. Sealing of the casing annulus may be accomplished by conventional well cement or by a second inflatable packer. The inflatable packers used are inflated with fast hardening well cement which is retained in the packer annulus by means of a check valve so as to effect an immediate seal and anchor which is maintained during and after hardening of the cement.
