The downhole agitator oscillation tool has provided unparalleled downhole friction reduction technology for far longer than any other tool in the industry. The tool gently oscillates the Bottom
Hole Assembly to significantly improve weight transfer and reduce friction. This improves weight transfer and reduces stick-slip in all modes of drilling, but especially when oriented drilling
with a steerable motor.
The tool provides BHA excitement to improve weight transfer to the bit. Extends the boundaries of extended reach drilling with motors, or enhance efficiency in less complex or rotary
applications.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
1 Significantly Improves Directional Control
• Gentle oscillation of BHA reduces friction and dramatically improves weight transfer
• Enhances toolface control & reduces Stick-slip
• Extends step-out capability
• Prevents weight stacking and allows excellent tool face control
• Provides means of sliding at increased ROP and lower weight off hook
• Allows weight transfer with less drill pipe compression
2 Bit Friendly
• Can be used with roller cone bit or fixed cutter bits
• No impact forces to damage teeth or bearings
• Extends PDC life through fine weight transfer; no spudding
3 Downhole Tool Compatibility
• Fully compatible with all vendor MWD/LWD
• Field proven above RSS
• Reduces shocks during drilling
• Reduced lateral and torsional vibration
• Optimized steerable assembly rotary efficiency
• No interference with downhole tool signals
• Run above or below MWD
• No impact force to bit or tubulars
4 Efficiency
• Increased sliding ROP
• Reduced time lost in toolface orientation and working BHA
• Increased ROP in some rotary applications
