HydrostaticPackers are not a me
chanical tool, but an operational practice. \; They consist of a colum
n of light fluid, the length and density of which is engineered to allow p
recise control of the placement of pills, cement, and other fluids in well
s that will not stand full due to low integrity. \; The primary cause
of failure in the treatment of lost returns is overdisplacement and the us
e of hydrostatic packers has resulted in a very high success rate in even
the most severe lost returns events. \; They have been used in operati
ons for 17 years and have greatly affected well control practices, vugular
loss practices, and cementing success in low integrity. \; These prac
tices were built on some unique insights related to pressure behaviors dur
ing loss events, and field
application requires operations training a
nd engineering oversight. \; \; \;  \; \; \; \
