Abstract: A well tool in one or more example comprises a packer and a setting tool having a through bore in fluid communication with the tubular conveyance. An actuation port fluidically couples the through bore to a setting chamber. Pressurized fluid may be supplied to the setting chamber via the through bore to set the packer. An expandable material may then be exposed to an activation fluid to seal off the actuation port and isolate the setting chamber. By isolating the setting chamber after setting the sealing element, pressure may be increased to above the setting pressure to perform a well service operation, without damaging the setting chamber.
