Reducing friction in high-angle wells
Article discusses torque/ drag problems with current designs and presents roller-based tool technology as a solution for reducing friction losses
Reducing friction in high-angle wellsFrictional losses due to torque / drag are the primary limitation in extending the reach of many high-angle wells; roller-based technology can provide a solutionColin J. Mason, BP, UK; Larry G. Williams and Geoff N. Murray, Weatherford International Inc.
