A hydraulic set packer system includes an outer sleeve and a mandrel extending through the outer sleeve. The mandrel has a setting port extending through a radial wall of the mandrel, and the setting port is configured to provide fluid communication from a central bore of the mandrel to a setting chamber formed between the outer sleeve and the mandrel. The system also includes a piston configured to move axially along the mandrel in response to a setting pressure in the setting chamber. The piston is configured to drive at least one radially actuatable component to actuate in a radial direction to engage a wellbore wall. Further, the system includes a pressure isolation assembly disposed in the setting chamber. The pressure isolation assembly is configured to move axially with respect to the mandrel from a first position to a second position to seal the setting port.

Pressure isolation ring to isolate the setting chamber once hydraulic packer is set

A well sealing tool may include a hydraulic setting mechanism wherein a setting chamber is isolated after setting a sealing element in engagement with a wellbore. In one example, a setting mechanism includes a setting chamber housing positionable about a mandrel to define at least a portion of a setting chamber between the mandrel and the setting chamber housing. A setting port fluidically couples a through bore of the mandrel with the setting chamber. A valve element is biased toward a closed position within the setting port. A guide sleeve is disposed about the mandrel in a first position that props the valve element to an open position. The guide sleeve is moveable to a second position in response to a threshold pressure applied to the setting chamber to release the valve element to the closed position.
