VAxplorer®
The premium connection for extreme torques and extended reach wells.
VAxplorer® is a CAL IV Casing Connection with high torque capability for rotation operations.
Product characteristics and customer benefits:
CAL IV connection
- Minimizes risks - the connection design is successfully CAL IV tested according to ISO13679 and API RP 5C5 latest edition.
High torque capability
- Ensures well integrity - supplemental tests for gas sealability at yield torque were performed, also with bending (20°) and internal pressure.
- High yield torque (for size 5-1/2” x 23 ppf P110 above 22000 ft•lbs)
Rotation & extended reach
- VAxplorer® helps to protect against unexpected costs - VAxplorer® is a tailor-made product for extended reach wells and rotational operations. It withstands the severe impact on the material during rotational operations in extended reach wells and grants 100% compression and tension efficiency.
Finite Elemente Analysis (FEA)
- FEA of the pipe connection to simulate stresses within the material during make-up and under combined loads under operation as defined in the Von-Mises-Ellipse.
