Well Miller®
With Expandable Bit
The Well Miller Expandable Bit for hardware milling provides operators with a better way to repair wells with mechanical obstacles.
It can pass through small ID and expand to a larger OD when activated.
In 2018, an offshore client in the North Sea attempted to set an orientation sleeve and then an insert safety valve. The orientation sleeve was installed, but the insert...
Well Miller expandable bit for hardware milling provides operators with a better way to repair wells with mechanical problems.
It can pass through small ID and expand to a larger OD when activated. The bit will retract if communication is lost to the tool. Using only e-line tools, nipple profiles or other restrictions can be eliminated or increased, plugs can be removed, failed isolation valves can be milled through for production or access to deeper parts of the wellbore. The Well Miller is run in combination with the Well Tractor® for precise control of weight on bit and to counter reactive torque.
