The Downhole Electric Cutting Tool (DECT) is a unique, mechanical electric cutting tool for tubing, casing and drill pipe. It’s designed to have precise control, resulting in only the targeted tubing sections being cut with all the Mandrels and Sleeves remaining intact. This maximizes eciency, reduces risk and enables normal operations to be resumed with minimal downtime. The DECT contains a rotating cutting head with carbide tip plus a double set of anchoring arms which set the tool rmly inside the tubing. The family of DECT tools cut various pipe sizes in dierent conditions, all to machine...

Designed to oer total control and precision, the DECT provides an exceptionally clean downhole cut which means it is often used for specialist operations that aren’t possible using chemicals or explosive cutters, for example Packer Sleeves and Mandrels. The tool is ideal for these procedures as the cutting diameter is controlled at all times by an engineer allowing the operation to be stopped when the cutting tip breaks through, avoiding damage to the packer materials behind the sleeve. Key Features • Full user control of cut depth • No-Go system ensures exact cut location within a Packer • Minimal...

Our range of additional tools and accessories are designed to assist with precise centralization of the cutting head and provide important additional data. Options are available for use in highly deviated wells or where rig height is limited. DECT accessories also minimize issues related to well conditions. Roller Centralizers, CCL’s, Head Tension Units and Swivel Joint’s all combine to assist the user in gaining maximum advantage when dealing with problematic operations and easily congure with customer interfaces. Adaptors are supplied from Sondex GO connections. Key Features • Multiple sensors...

The DECT is controlled and monitored by a single portable power panel and laptop. The Surface Control Panel (MCP) is attached to the wireline and signals from the tool are gathered and fed to the logging laptop. The MCP has a safety arming switch that needs to be depressed before the DECT can receive power from the panel. The tool is powered up by the variac controller monitored on the laptop. The DECT software is WindowsTM compatible, simple to use after minimal training, and provides all of the necessary tool functions and displays required for all operations. When power is sent to the DECT...

The Freepoint Indicator tool (FPI) is an electromechanical tool designed to measure the amount of torque or stretch of a given length of tubing, drillpipe or casing. It can also be adapted to use in casing with an optional casing bow spring section. The system includes the FPI tool, Bowspring sections and Slack Joint for standard operations. There is also a Cable Head, CCL and Sinker weight bars for specic operations, plus magnetic sections for decentralization against the tubing wall. Key Features • High pressure and temperature (21,000psi at 500ºF) • Low voltage inductance • Capable of freepoint...

Our range of accessories include Swivel Joints, Shock Subs, Skates, Shot Rods, Quick Change parts, Sinker Bars and Adaptors to assist in the successful deployment of our Freepoint tools. Adaptors are equipped for containing pressure and have end connections of dierent nominal sizes to connect equipment of dierent API nominal sizes. Key Features • Accessories can be produced to customer specication • The Freepoint Sensor section prevents erroneous readings • Depth correlations with Casing Collar Locator • Sinker Bars add weight for more control. Cable Head Interfaces between the cable and the...
