Abstract
A side entry sub logging system has features for preventing a blowout should a kick in the casing annulus occur. A packer is mounted to the side entry sub below the sidewall passage. The packer has an elastomeric element for expansion of the element into sealing engagement with the casing. An actuating assembly is mounted in the sub for actuating the packer into sealing engagement with the casing. The actuating assembly acts to set slips in response to hydraulic pressure applied to the interior of the drill pipe from the surface. Then the drill pipe is picked up to move the elastomeric element into compression against the casing. The packer is released by removing the hydraulic pressure and lowering the drill pipe.
