Reducing risk and gaining efficiency

Stab. Inject. Release.

Designed for extreme conditions, the TTC technology is a new way of connecting pipes, tubulars and various clamp applications in a safe and reliable manner.

As the first threadless solution, the quick connector is strong enough to endure different loads and combinations of tension and torsion, with the same high torque capacity clockwise and counter-clockwise. The TTC technology is applicable for deep geothermal wells and oil and gas wells. 

 

The TTC technology does not require any rotation or heavy-duty equipment:

1. Stab the pin into the box.
2. Inject high-pressure water-based fluid and press the connection to end stop.
3. Release pressure drain fluid, and the connection is ready for operation.


The result:
– Time saved – quick connection
– Improved performance – longer and faster drilling
– Less drag – slim design, better cleanout

Applications

Slim cross over sub

Threadless connection integrated into the cross-over subs for use in conditions with limited available cross-section and the need for a strong non-rotation “slide-on” connection. Dimensions 1,9 and 2,75 inch.

Clamp on connector

Stabilizers mounted with the TTC technology on a downhole tool for harsh drilling and milling operations. Can handle extensive forces and vibrations.
– Extreme torque capacity clockwise and counter clockwise (example: +80 kNm / +59 kftlb on a 5 inch tool)
– No loose parts such as set screws or similar locking devices
– High axial load capacity (example: +200 tons / +440 klb on a 5 inch tool) 
– Easy make and break without need for rotation or heavy equipment

Heavy duty connector

A heavy duty connection suited for high loads and vibrations down hole in the north sea. The connection has the same high torque capacity clock wise and counter-clock and a reduced cross section compared to traditional premium double shoulder pipe connections.
– Torque: +110kNm / +80kft/lb (cw and ccw)
– Tension: +500ton /+1.1mill lb

Benefits

Reduced risk and gained efficiency
  • Quick connections, 1,5 – 2 days saved on a 12 000 feet average well design.
  • Increased drilling torque.
  • Same high torque capacity clockwise and counter-clockwise.
  • Reduced cross section on connections = Improved hydrodynamics

 

The technical benefits give extended reach and ratio of penetration.
