The Self-Filling poppet or flapper style-floats enable operators to accelerate trip times, saving up to 18 minutes per 1000ft run in hole by allowing self-filling and eliminating time-consuming top filling.
The robust hold open mechanism allows for MWD and other shallow hole testing without premature float activation issues. It houses two floats giving dual redundancy and replaces the traditional floats that are in the string.
The tool is dart activated with no additional equipment or personnel required and provides through bore access prior to activation. Simply activate on approach to the shoe to provide protection while drilling the section.
