Product Overview
The ArrowSet™ I-X Mechanical Production Packer from Weatherford is a retrievable, double-grip, tension- or compression-set packer engineered for robust and flexible zonal isolation in production, stimulation, or injection applications. With a field-proven design, it delivers high pressure-holding capabilities from above or below while offering quick deployment and retrieval, even in hostile environments. The tool’s patented releasing system reduces operational risks and NPT, ensuring a secure seal and easy release even in challenging conditions.
Key Features, Benefits & Advantages

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can this packer be retrieved without milling?
A: Yes. It is fully retrievable using a simple 1/4 right-hand turn to release.
Q: What happens during release if pressure is trapped below the packer?
A: The bypass valve opens before the slips release, safely equalizing pressure before retrieval.
Q: Is this suitable for high H2S or CO2 environments?
A: Yes. Elastomer and metallurgy options are available for corrosive service applications.
Q: Can I run this with fiberglass tubing?
A: Absolutely. This packer is ideal for fiberglass string compatibility.
Q: Are larger OD sizes like 13-3/8 in. supported?
A: Yes. Models up to 13-3/8 in. casing are available with matching standard thread connections.
