simple yet reliable technology
PBL® Patented Technology
Proven Solution For Your Drilling Challenges
The PBL® Multiple Activation Bypass System stands as the premier circulating sub in the industry, designed to optimize operational efficiency through its straightforward yet dependable technology. This innovative system directs 100% of the flow through side ports into the annulus, allowing for elevated circulation rates and enhanced total flow area (TFA).
The PBL tool effectively tackles a variety of drilling challenges, including:
- Displacing significant amounts of LCM and cement to remedy fluid loss to the formation without requiring pulling out of hole.
- Enhancing hole-cleaning capacity by increasing annular velocity, especially in constrained circulation rates or low annular velocities.
Our patented technology ensures maximum efficiency across a diverse array of operations, encompassing drilling, completion, workover, through-tubing, and decommissioning.
With its proven track record, the PBL® tool emerges as a versatile solution for refining drilling operations and surmounting prevalent challenges in the field.
The PBL® Multiple Activation Bypass System is engineered for optimal performance in extreme onshore and offshore environments, including high-temperature and high- pressure (HPHT) conditions.
