Coiled tubing is a revolutionary technology that has transformed operations in the oil and gas industry. This continuous length of small-diameter steel pipe, wound onto a spool, allows for efficient deployment into wells for various applications without the need for traditional jointed pipe. The versatility and efficiency of coiled tubing make it an essential tool for operators looking to optimize their production and maintenance processes.
Coiled tubing (CT) technology has transformed the oil and gas industry by providing a versatile, efficient, and cost-effective method for well interventions, drilling, and completion operations. This article explores the principles of coiled tubing, its applications, benefits, challenges, and the technology that underpins its operation.
