VMB plug

VMB is a retrievable, gas-tight plug that resets the standard for V0-rated well barrier plugs. Deep water proven, it enables secure well suspension or abandonment without the use of cement

VMB = zero bubbles = safe and secure wells

VMB well barrier plugs are resettable, retrievable and V0 rated under ISO 14310, which demands gas tight isolation with zero leakage. With no drill pipe needed below the plug, installation is easier and faster.

More than 600 successful deployments have validated this innovative design and the operator benefits.

VMB enables multiple sets in a single trip, shorter running assemblies and through-tubing access. Deployment cycles are reduced and flexibility increased.

Proven in deep water and demanding conditions, VMB's absolute seal provides security in temporary suspension or permanent abandonment, without the use of cement.

VMB = zero bubbles = safe and secure wells.

Key features & benefits

Can be tested from below to working pressure
Large internal flow area allows high rate flow for curing losses and cementing through tool
Unique slips design minimizes casing damage
Simple design for equalizing pressure across plug
Plug can be equalized in a controlled manner
Designed for helicopter transportation

Typical applications

Storm packer
