Standard Wireline Packers Systems (SWiPS)
The through-the-bit wireline hydraulic packer system that is now the world leader for permeability testing in deep and demanding core holes. Available as standard for “P”, “H” and “N” sizes, in modular single / straddle formats. Straddles from 1m to 10m length with optional memory gauge carriers. Modular, compact and simple, SWiPS® makes testing possible where gas-inflate packers can't be used. "H" size can be readily adapted for "P" size wells with 70mm elements and "B" wells can be tested in non-wireline format.
SWiPS Surface Control
The IPI SWiPS® SC is designed for permeability testing in shallow HQ and PQ wireline core
holes. The packers are either pneumatically or hydraulically inflated using inflation lines with
both single and straddle options available.
