Abstract
A sealing element for wellbore operations can include an energizing end with a sloped surface and a perpendicular surface, a stationary end with a sloped surface and a perpendicular surface, and an engagement surface located between the energizing end and the stationary end. An energizing sleeve can include a sloped surface that engages with and moves along the sloped surface of the energizing end to cause the engagement surface to engage with the inside of a tool housing, casing, or tubing string to create a seal. A stationary tool component can about the stationary end, so the sealing element is energized. The sealing element can be used in a packer assembly, as an anchoring device, in lieu of O-rings, to allow opening or closing of flow ports, or in other downhole tools.
