PBL Multi Activation Jetting Tool

The simplest and most reliable tool for most applications. To activate the tool, a vinyl ball is pumped down. When the tool opens operators are not limited in the size or concentration of LCM they can pump. For deactivation two steel closing balls are dropped and pumped down to close the tool and drill ahead. The tool can be activated and deactivated again up to five times – extended catcher cages accommodate up to ten cycles.

Fast ball is a much denser activation ball – in comparison to the standard ball – and used in applications where high mud weights and high temperatures occur. This feature allows for a quicker activation of the PBL tool which is especially helpful in situations where there is limited or no circulation.

A heavy dart, which can be used in the highest mud weights, or where mud cannot be circulated – i.e. packedoff situation. Allows activation by gravity drop. It is much faster than a standard ball, which reduces activation time significantly. Descent by gravity only: can be used in wells with a maximum inclination up to 55°. Descent by being pumped down: can be used in wells with a maximum inclination up to 90°.
