Low Torque Roller Centralizer
Oil Baron Supply’s Low Torque Roller Centralizers are specially designed to run in
deviated or horizontal sections and are effective in reducing friction. When casing equipped with Roller Centralizer runs into a deviated or horizontal hole, the
sliding friction between the casing and the borehole is converted into rolling friction.
When running cases, irregular hole diameters can lead to the wall of the borehole having an impact force on the spiral centralizer. The use of rollers significantly reduces this impact. Torque reduction is provided by vertical alignment of rollers on the periphery of roller centralizer. In addition, the outside diameter of the roller is kept slightly larger than the outside diameter of the fins’ envelope.
These products are available in sizes ranging from 3 1/2” to 20”.
