Abstract
A port valve isolation packer comprises an upper body, a slip joint port valve, a positioner mandrel, a spacer coupling and a lower body, all of which make up a tubular body of the isolation packer. Said tubular body has upper and lower packer assemblies and a closing positioner attached to its outer surface. An inner mandrel is concentrically disposed within said tubular body. The slip joint port valve includes a slip joint mandrel having a port disposed therein, and a slip joint sleeve having a radial bore therethrough. When said port valve is in a first closed position, said port is blocked by said slip joint sleeve. When said port valve is in a second open position, said port is aligned with the radial bore of the slip joint sleeve. The inner bore of the inner mandrel communicates with said port. A fluid bypass is provided through an annular cavity between the inner mandrel and the tubular body.
