WWT International's Russell Mertens recently completed an SPE Technical Paper that is now available for purchase.  It gives an in-depth review of the capabilities of the NRP and specific elements and obstacles the well encountered.  Below is a preview and a link to purchase the SPE Technical Paper.

• Nine months and over 11 million drill pipe revolutions later, the production casing for a Bolivian operator was still in almost new condition due to the use of WWT’s Non-Rotating Protectors.
• A USIT log was performed both before and after deploying NRPs to verify the condition of the casing. A total of 4 million drill pipe revolutions accrued onto the casing between logs, resulting in an increase of 0.7% at the maximum wear point.
• At TD, maximum wear reached 13% at a depth where side force was the highest at 3,500lbf/jt. The majority of casing wear is likely attributed to tripping the exposed BHA and drillstring in and out of the hole a total of 27 times.

WWT International, in partnership with Saudi Aramco, announces a breakthrough innovation for small-diameter, extended-reach coiled tubing operations. Together, the companies have successfully completed the development of the compact, all-hydraulic WWT 212 Tractor™ that can uniquely deliver heavy loads in small-diameter open-hole or cased-hole well sections from 3.92 inches to 4.1 inches and 6 inches to 7.4 inches with greater pulling power than any other tractor on the market.  More details can be read on page 7 of the January 4, 2017 issue of “The Arabian Sun,” published by Saudi Aramco.

WWT International has developed the WWT FlexShoe™ (FLX), an innovative tool designed to guide casing past the challenging deviations encountered in extended reach drilling, horizontal wells and deepwater operations.

Strong, flexible and drillable, this breakthrough product enables the lead end of casing to traverse both planned and unplanned wellbore profile changes and ledges, while allowing cement to be pumped through the tool.  Its unique coupling design allows transition from the rigid casing to the WWT FlexShoe™ while keeping stresses low.  It easily interfaces with various connections, float collars and other casing running equipment. The tool is designed to save rig time and reduce risk when running casing for deepwater operations, extended reach drilling and horizontal wells.
