Overcome excessive drag forces to run casing to depth
Talk to an expertThe AirGlide floatation collar significantly lowers drag and frictional forces to allow casing to get to bottom faster. Through use of an innovative glass disk, the AirGlide floatation collar can lift the casing string away from the wellbore to reduce drag between the casing and the formation to provide improved casing running capabilities. Because the AirGlide floatation collar utilizes an innovative glass disk rather than ceramic parts, there is zero risk of plugoff or damage to float equipment, and the need for a debris catcher is eliminated.
An innovative glass disk handles differential pressures up to 12,500 psi to withstand shocks during handling and well operations but disintegrates into fine, sand-like particles upon activation. These sand-like fragments are easily pumped through float equipment with no risk of plugoff or damage to the equipment, thus leaving a fullbore inner diameter (ID) casing for cementing and completions operations.
