Cased Hole

CRIL — Centraliser Rocker In-Line

Patented Rocker centraliser for in-line connection — perfect centralization in 4-1/2” to 7” casing.

CRIL

Description

A ground-up analysis of centraliser mechanics and current logging applications led to Petromac’s revolutionary “Rocker” centraliser for cased hole service.

The patented Rocker centraliser incorporates a rocker in each of the arm assemblies which pivots about the centreline. The rocker wheels contact opposing sides of the casing ensuring perfect centralization.

The CRIL (Centraliser Rocker In-Line) is designed for in-line connection within the tool string.

This tool incorporates Petromac’s unique bearing technology which has enabled our family of devices to descend by gravity to world-record deviations

The CRIL Rocker centraliser is configured for centralization in 4.5” to 7” casing sizes and is available in two size configurations, standard and small:

4-1/2”to 7” with a collapse diameter of 3-5/8” (1” wheel)

4-1/2”to 7” with a collapse diameter of 3-3/8” (7/8” wheel).
