Multiple Activation Bypass System
Technical Info | Demonstration | Application | Specifications | Downloads
 
PBL Drilling Tools Ltd. introduces the Multiple Activation Bypass System for drilling, completion and workover operations. The Bypass System is a simple, reliable tool for increasing BHA circulating area 'at the drop of a ball'.
Key Features

  • Standard tool configuration includes 6 open and close cycles.
  • Drill with optimum hydraulics, use motors, MWD's or core barrels and maintain the ability to pump aggressive LCM pills. The Bypass sub saves you that trip for open ended drill pipe.
  • Reduce friction losses and increase circulating rates in deep liner clean-out applications. Don't circulate at 4 BPM when the Bypass sub can give you 30 BPM using specialized dual or triple ported tools.
  • Proven reliable performance worldwide. Regularly in use worldwide for over twelve years.
Drilling Applications

Lost circulation means lost time and money to any Operator. Whether it's a shallow onshore well or a deep offshore multi-well project, all operators want to deal with lost circulation problems in a fast and effective manner. The Bypass System provides your field personnel with the equipment to get that job done. Drill with the hydraulics and specialized tools you need to make hole, and keep the Bypass System on standby in the drillstring for when you encounter lost circulation.
Operations

  • Drop the vinyl/torlon ball into the drillstring, displace it to the tool and open the circulating port.
  • Mix and pump an aggressive LCM pill that will heal the losses, and save you the trip for OEDP. The Bypass sub will accommodate anything your rig crew can mix and pump.
  • When the losses are healed up, simply drop a steel ball into the string, displace it to the tool, pressure up and close the circulating port.
  • The procedure can be repeated up to six times before you need to trip.
Reduce your mud losses and wasted rig time by allowing your field personnel to act aggressively and heal losses the first time.
PBL Drilling Tools has marketed the Bypass System and dealt with lost circulation problems worldwide for over twelve years. Our equipment has made thousands of successful runs. We are ready to assist you in reducing costs associated with lost circulation and limited flow rate problems in completions and workovers.
