Abstract

See full text

A composition suitable for use in a packer element for a wellbore includes: a hydrocarbon-swellable polymer, the hydrocarbon-swellable polymer present in the composition in an amount between about 10 and 30 percent by weight; an oil-resistant polymer, the oil-resistant polymer present in the composition in an amount between about 10 and 30 percent by weight; and a hydrocarbon swelling agent, the hydrocarbon swelling agent present in the composition in an amount between about 15 and 60 percent by weight. A composition as described may have a good balance of the swelling properties of the hydrocarbon-swellable polymer and the mechanical properties of the oil-resistant polymer. These properties may be useful in a packer element for a wellbore.
