INTEGRAL CENTRALIZER SUBS

TOP-CO TYPE 361 - ROTOBO

With the energy industrys challenging and demanding performance
requirements, Top-Cos T361 Rotobo Integral Bow Spring Centralizer Sub has been designed to withstand the most extreme
deep-water down hole conditions.
Manufactured from seamless casing grade material, the integral
centralizer sub is designed for ultimate performance in underreamed holes. Additionally, Top-Cos customization capabilities
allow the sub design to match the exact needs of most well and
casing programs.

PRIMARY APPLICATION
Top-Cos Type 361 Rotobo Integral Bow Spring Centralizer Sub
is designed for use in deep-water wells where under-reamed sections are encountered. The sub design allows the centralizer to
pass through small annular clearances and open up in the underreamed section to provide the centralization needed to get a superior cementing job.
The Rotobo model is well suited for applications requiring casing
rotation.

INTEGRAL CENTRALIZER SUBS

TOP-CO TYPE 361 - ROTOBO

FEATURES
Welded bow spring centralizer installed over integral
shoulders which are machined onto the sub.
The centralizer is free to rotate on the sub.
The threads on the sub match that of the casing string.
The metallurgy and mechanical properties will meet or
exceed the specifications of the casing string.
Designs are customizable within the API 5CT specifications to meet well specific clearance limitations.
Mechanical properties are enhanced by using pin bore
ID throughout the sub rather than casing ID.

ADVANTAGES
Ability to rotate the casing string.
The bow springs are built in such a manner that they
are pulled into or out of the hole as they are designed
to be run.

BENEFITS
Unlike standard centralizers, the drilling engineer will
not have to worry about slippage or breakage when
going through tight clearances
Improved mud removal and cement placement through
casing rotation

ENGINEERING SUPPORT
Centralization placement simulations.
Torque and drag analysis.
Pre and post installation analysis.

COMPLETE PRODUCT LINE

The D2 model consists of a bow spring centralizer
mounted over solid vanes machined on the casing sub.
The centralizer notched collar positively indexes the
compression of the bows between the vanes, which creates additional protection to the centralizer when running
and reciprocating casing. The solid vanes also guarantee a minimum stand-off when higher than expected side
forces are encountered.
The SuperCombo
model has machined
straight or spiral solid
vanes above and/or below a Rotobo centralizer
to combine the ability to
rotate casing with additional protection and a
guaranteed stand-off.
