CLEANWELL® DRY ST is a simple, user friendly, and operationally cost effective solution, that eliminates the need of running compounds at the rig site. All technology is applied to the Box, offering an utmost simplicity of use and reparability, while being fully dry at the rig floor. CLEANWELL® DRY ST is delivered from the mill with anticorrosion & lubricating dry coating applied on the box, while the pin is protected with regular storage dope.
At rig preparation stage, pin is cleaned from storage dope, protected and pipe is shipped as is, fully dry to the rig. It ensures quickest and safest running in challenging operations, for the people, for the well bore and for the environment.
This results in improved QHSE and lower operating costs.
