Products
Name: Casing Running Tools (CRTi™ and CRTe™)
Description: Volant’s Casing Running Tools (internal grip CRTi, and external grip CRTe) enable makeup, break out, reciprocate, rotate, fill/circulate, and cement casing and liner strings, reducing non productive time and associated costs.

Problem: Challenging Casing Runs
Solution: Volant Casing Running Tools (CRTi™ and CRTe™)
Being able to rotate, circulate and reciprocate casing and liner strings can make the difference between stuck pipe and getting safely to bottom. Volant’s Casing Running Tools thread directly onto the quill of any top drive, engaging the casing ID below the threads, through a torque energized radially expanding die system. The CRT integrates seamlessly and brings the benefits of the top drive to casing running. Rig in and rig out steps are simple, intuitive and efficient. The architecture has a proven track record having run more than 100 million feet of casing worldwide. The main difference between the CRTe and CRTi is that the CRTe grips the external rather than the internal surface of the casing. Both have become industry standards, with the CRTe being the choice for handling small diameter, heavy strings in deep wells.
Name: HydroFORM™ Centralizers
Description: Volant has engineered and developed processes to precision-form tubular steel into a variety of shapes, resulting in a smooth unit-body shape perfectly suited to today’s complex well designs.
Details:
Problem: Centralizer Failure
Solution: Volant HydroFORM™ Centralizers
Hydroforming technology is used to produce this high quality, high strength product. HydroFORM Centralizers have become the product of choice for operators drilling critical challenging wells. The smooth geometry and wrap around rib coverage reduces torque and drag during casing and liner installation and improves cement distribution and hydraulic isolation.
A Perfect Record
In window exiting operations, where other centralizer products were failing, the HydroFORM Centralizers with their inherent robustness have a spotless record of success.
Name: Multi Lobe Torque Rings (MLT Rings™)
Description: When you’re looking for an increase in torque, short lead time and reasonable cost, MLT Rings™ in conjunction with API connections are the solution. Whether you need to ream casing to bottom, or rotate during cementing, MLT Rings enable success.
Details:
Problem: High Costs/Long Lead Time
Solution: Volant Multi Lobe Torque Rings (MLT Rings™)
When you’re looking for an increase in torque, short lead time and reasonable cost, MLT Rings in conjunction with API connections are the solution. The name describes it perfectly. MLT Rings are machined round, then formed to a specific lobate shape. Engineered to span the tolerances of API couplings, MLT Rings are pressed into the centre section of the connection. While being installed, the lobed rings begin to conform to the internal diameter of the couplings. When they land against the mill end pipe face, they will have reformed back to a round or near-round shape.
