WWT NRPs Provide Superior Benefit in Offset Well Comparison

A comparison was made of two similar directional wells in South East Asia drilled using WWT Non-Rotating Protectors and a different nrp for torque reduction and casing protection.

WWT Non-Rotating Protectors Provide 24% Torque Reduction

NRP Performance:
• 99 SS3-500 NRPs used for torque and drag reduction under maximum contact loads of approximately 4,900 lbf per joint.
• A backmodel analysis suggests torque was reduced by approximately 25%.
• NRPs reduced torque by 24% compared to an offset well.

WWT NRPs Replace Steel Protectors in GoM Well

After experiencing slipping and detachment issues with a competitor’s clamp-on steel protectors in a previous section, WWT’s Non-Rotating Protectors (NRPs) were deployed for the 12-1/4” section in conjunction with the competitor’s sub-type steel protectors as a solution to mitigate casing wear and reduce torque

WWT NRPs Reduce Drilling Torque to Stay Below Limit

WWT NRPs were deployed to reduce torque and prevent heat checking while drilling an S-shaped well in the Gulf of Mexico.
