Inflatable Packers International (IPI) has developed advanced high-pressure inflatable packer technology, which is widely used in various industries such as oil and gas, mining, and water wells. Established in 1999, IPI has grown significantly, expanding its operations globally from its base in Perth, Australia. The company’s packers are designed to seal and isolate sections of wells, providing versatility and efficiency in challenging environments. IPI offers three main types of packers: mechanical, swellable, and inflatable, each tailored to specific applications. Mechanical packers are known for their durability and are used in high-pressure scenarios. Swellable packers, which expand upon contact with fluids, are ideal for long-term sealing. Inflatable packers, the most versatile, can be used in a wide range of applications, including testing and fracturing.
IPI’s commitment to innovation is evident in its continuous research and development efforts. The company has invested in advanced CNC machining systems and elastomer testing equipment to enhance the quality and performance of its products. IPI’s packers have been used in diverse and demanding environments, from Antarctic ice testing to hydraulic fracturing in deep mines. The company’s products are recognized for their robustness and reliability, making IPI a trusted partner in the industry.
In recent years, IPI has focused on expanding its market presence and product offerings. The company has established new facilities and offices in strategic locations worldwide, including North America, South America, Asia, and Europe. This global expansion has enabled IPI to better serve its customers and meet the growing demand for its innovative packer technology. With a strong emphasis on quality, efficiency, and customer satisfaction, IPI continues to lead the way in inflatable packer technology, setting new standards in the industry.
