Recently, the EIA forecasted global consumption of petroleum and liquid fuels will average 99.4 million b/d for all of 2022, an increase of 2.1 million b/d from 2021. They further expected the same increase in 2023. With the consistent rise of global demands, it’s critical to invest in drill pipe protectors to achieve your own production goals with quality pipe protectors.
Using pipe and thread protection for drill strings can improve safety, reduce wear, and prevent failures in the downhole. As drill pipes operate under extreme environmental conditions, maintaining the integrity of the threaded and coupled connections is also important to controlling costs. You’ll avoid costly wear and tear damage, operate more reliably, and extend the production uptimes of rigs.
Fortunately, with drill pipe protectors from MSI Pipe Protection Technologies, you can ensure the integrity of your drill strings and other downhole equipment. Learn more about our different types of protectors below.
The Benefits of Drill Pipe Protection Solutions
Maintaining the integrity of every section’s thread can be challenging when operating rigs in extreme environmental conditions. MSI provides heavy-duty, full steel, or High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) thread protectors. All MSI’s steel protector models have precision-cut CNC thread profiles, guaranteeing a secure fit and maximum protection.
For ease of use, MSI permanently stamps every thread form and fitting size on the protector. With pin and box thread protectors and different connection types, MSI can help maintain your drill string investments during every stage of the production lifecycles.
