ABSTRACT:
A tool (20) for washing the perforated zone of a well casing in an oil or gas well includes a tubular mandrel (24) having a flow passage (26) with means for connecting one end of the mandrel to a drill string (160) and the second end to a flow blocking valve (162). The mandrel (24) has a plurality of apertures (42) through its sidewall. A first and second radially expandable packer (64, 132) completely encircles and is carried on the mandrel at spaced positions. An outer sleeve (100) surrounds the mandrel between the packers and defines an annular chamber (116) between the sleeve and mandrel. The sleeve has apertures (104) therethrough having a combined area less than the combined area of the apertures (42) through the mandrel. First and second annular pistons (74, 100) are carried within the annular chamber (116) having one face communicating with the annular chamber and an opposite face engaging, respectively, the first and second packers. Upon injection of fluid under pressure into the tubular mandrel and the annular chamber and through the apertures in the sleeve to the exterior of the tool, pressure generated within the annular chamber moves the pistons against the packers, radially expanding them against the casing while discharging fluid exteriorly of the tool.
