Conventional Side Pocket Mandrels (SPM) have inherent challenges related to welding and heat treatment. These issues are exacerbated when welding nickel-chromium alloys, such as S13%Cr, 25%Cr and Alloy 718, common materials for high cost completions.
PTC’s NexLift SI™ is the only true single-piece, unwelded SPM in the industry. This unique design provides unrivalled structural integrity, removes the last welded completion component from the well along with issues related to installation and retrieval of valves. International operating companies are now installing the field proven NexLift SI worldwide.
