A downhole, expanding plug-like device which is used to seal off certain parts of tubing, casing, or open hole when cementing, acidizing, or isolating specific zones of a formation for production or testing. Packers can be run on logging cables, tubing, drill pipe, or casing and when in position can be expanded to form a seal to confine fluid flow to the inside bore of the packer.
