Abstract
A short millable plug includes a mandrel, an upper backup ring and a lower backup ring, a cone, a slip that can be expand and engage a casing, a plurality of sealing elements that creates a seal between the mandrel and the casing, a centralizer that can radially expand to force against the casing wall, a mill-out anti-rotation feature at the middle of the mandrel which is exposed once the plug is set. The centralizer can keep the plug in the center of the casing and each individual slip segments of the slip has the same distance to the casing wall during setting and operation. The mill-out anti-rotation feature can reduce relative rotation between the plug and the casing while reduces the length of the plug.
