Open Hole

CP12 — Centering Parallelogram for 12in

The first ever roller centraliser for open hole — centres wireline tools in 12-1/4” boreholes.

CP12

Description

The CP12 is the first ever Roller Centraliser for use in open hole. It is designed to centre wireline tools in 12-1/4” boreholes.

A ground-up analysis of centralization mechanics and consideration of logging challenges led to the revolutionary architecture of the CP12.

The patented suspension mechanism and low friction bearings eliminate wellbore drag, ensuring optimum data quality from hi-tech imaging and sonic tool.

The CP12 is compact (16in, 45lbf) which makes it easier to handle, minimizes tool-string weight and allows it to be attached in numerous positions.

Applications

  • Centralization of wireline logging tools
  • Tool Conveyance on highly deviated wells
  • Reduction of Stick & Slip
