Packer Feedthru Systems
BIW Connector Systems
BIW Connector Systems Product Overview
NOTE: We must fully understand the
packer setting and unsetting mechanism
before we decide to use a feedthru
system.
There should be no relative movement
between the primary string (tubing) and
the secondary string (electrical) when
setting or unsetting the packer.
Otherwise, the cable clamped to the tubing
(primary) will pull from the feedthru
secured to the secondary string.
BIW Connector Systems Important Note for Packer Feedthru Designs
BIW Connector Systems Product Overview
BIW Connector Systems Designed for Ease of Installation The packer feedthru mating mechanism of the connectors is simple
and user friendly, the same as for the wellhead feedthrus.
Note the red dot position
BIW Connector Systems Product Overview
BIW Connector Systems Packer Feedthru
Unlike Wellheads, Packers Typically Have Space Limitations for the Feedthru System.
Feedthrus Can be Installed
1) Integral,
2) Above the Packer, or
3) Below the Packer.
Crossover Adapters are Typically Required When the Secondary Bore is Too Small. Integral Packer Feedthru

BIW Connector Systems Shrouds, Pods and BOP Cans
All packer feedthrus can be and have
been installed as shroud or pod feedthrus.
BOP Can assemblies are sometimes used
to test a well with the rig and on the well.
Although pressure ratings of 5000 psi are
not needed in these installations, still a
good seal and a unit that can handle the
high temperature and pressures is
preferred.
