Drillers face an increasing demand to run casings to greater depths and at higher angles. Tools that enable drilling teams to land downhole assemblies at target depth the first time can decrease drilling costs. Often conventional methods are not practical or prudent – for example, the size or length of the casing can make it impossible to rotate on smaller rigs, and the well path can prevent rotation.
Deep Casing Tools has launched the first drill-through tool to ensure casing to target depth, allowing wells to be drilled as planned and enhancing well integrity. Manufactured as a single body from high-strength steel, the Turbocaser Express is a rugged downhole tool that can ream casings through obstructions, is fully HP/HT compliant, and works with any drilling fluid without deterioration in power output, reliability, or performance. After reaming casing to target depth, the tool can be drilled through in minutes with standard drill bits after normal cementing in one operation.
