TAM’s one-trip PosiFrac® Multi-Stage Hydraulic Fracture System is a complete service providing operators new options for completing horizontal wellbores. It enables highly accurate, positive placement of fractures with minimal or no intervention activity. The service incorporates five proven, reliable tools:

• Liner Hanger Packer
  TAM offers a selection of hydraulically activated dual bore liner top packers.

• FREECAP® Swellable Packers
  Positive zonal isolation can be achieved with FREECAP swellable packers, resulting in an optimized open hole completion.

• Ball-Activated Fracturing Sleeve
  The ball-activated fracturing sleeve is a component of the system used as a means to establish direct communication between the liner/casing string and the formation.

• Hydraulic-Activated Fracturing Sleeve
  The hydraulic-activated fracturing sleeve is an interventionless fracturing sleeve that incorporates redundant opening functions.

• Circulation Closing Valve
  The circulating closing valve assembly is designed to be used at the toe of the liner system.

PosiFrac Toe Sleeve (PTS-01) - One Cycle
TAM’s PosiFrac Toe Sleeve™ (PTS) is a testable frac initiation sleeve that allows a full casing integrity test on the completion string before beginning frac operations. The PTS differs from other rupture disc and metered toe sleeves in that a full casing integrity test (CIT) can be conducted for an extended amount of time before opening. Once the CIT is complete, the PTS will open once pressure is bled down.  The PTS allows you to conduct a CIT without the need to pressure above the test pressure to open the sleeve.

One or more PTS tools can be installed at the toe of the well, and each PTS will cycle open independently during the final casing pressure bleed-off cycle. This allows multiple entry points to the reservoir, so the first stage can be fractured immediately before plug-and-perf operations begin.

The PTS is rated up to 20,000 psi (combined hydrostatic plus test pressure) and 350⁰ F (177⁰ C). The design features a large flow area for high-rate fracture treatments and a debris-tolerant actuation system that is compatible with standard cement wiper plugs.

PosiFrac Toe Sleeve (PTS-00) - Zero Cycle
TAM’s Zero Cycle PosiFrac Toe Sleeve™ (PTS-00) assembly is designed to establish injection before frac operations in cemented and uncemented completions. The Zero Cycle PTS is a rupture disc toe sleeve that opens once the internal pressure setting is reached. The Zero Cycle PTS is ideal for initiating fracs when a full casing pressure test is not required. 

The PTS is rated up to 20,000 psi (combined hydrostatic plus test pressure) and 350⁰ F (177⁰ C). The design features a large flow area for high-rate fracture treatments and a debris-tolerant actuation system that is compatible with standard cement wiper plugs.
