What is the Purpose of a Casing Hanger?
The primary purpose of a casing hanger is to support and seal the casing strings within the wellhead. These casing strings are large-diameter pipes that are inserted into the wellbore during drilling and cemented in place. Casing hangers serve the following critical functions:
- Support: Casing hangers support the weight of the casing strings, preventing them from collapsing or shifting within the wellbore. This ensures the structural integrity of the well.
- Sealing: Casing hangers create a seal between the casing and the wellhead, preventing the escape of hydrocarbons and other fluids from the well. This is essential for safety and environmental protection.
- Isolation: They isolate different sections of the wellbore, allowing for the injection of fluids, such as cement or drilling mud, and the production of hydrocarbons from specific reservoir zones.
