Aberdeen-based Deep Casing Tools has run its new Turborunner system in the UK Central North Sea. The Turborunner recently was used for a horizontal application in the Saxon development well 21/23b-S2 and achieved successful placement of a 3,000-ft (914-m) predrilled liner from a semisubmersible.
The tool is designed specifically to enable completion engineers to achieve openhole completion placement operations and combines optimized washing with a rotational reaming capability without rotating the completion string. The Turborunner’s low operating pressure allows for integration with most completion systems and assists in first-time placement of liners or completions. The tool gives an operational advantage with little or no operational risk. www.deepcasingtools.com
