  2. There are sites on the internet with some background/explanation but I'm not sure why this requires permission from the NDIC. Maybe I'm misreading the cases.

    One source:

    http://weatherford.com/Products/Drilling/InflatablePackers/index.htm

    This has a bit more background/explanation:

    http://www.glossary.oilfield.slb.com/en/Terms/p/packer.aspx

    but again I don't know why it requires NDIC permission. I think this is the first time I've ever seen a case for inflatable packers, but early I might have missed them, not knowing as much about the dockets. I'll bring the question to a stand-alone post and see if anyone can provide more background.
