Non-Explosive Electro-Hydraulic Bottoms
NEO Electro-Hydraulic Bailer Bottom (EHBB)
The EHBB is a non-explosive bailer actuating system used to dump cement slurry or bridging material with a standard gravity bailer. To operate, current is applied to the EHBB causing a piston to retract through a ported sub, allowing the contents of the bailer to flow into the wellbore.
EHBB SYSTEM BENEFITS
- Substantial cost savings compared to conventional bailer systems
- No explosives needed
- No radio silence needed
- Dumps cement slurry
- Dumps bridging material
- Compatible with existing gravity bailer systems
- Minimum turnaround time between runs
- Maximum number of runs per operating day
- Maximum reliability of the dump bailing system
GIS utilizes two NEO Bailer Bottom systems:
- The standard EHBB is rated for use up to 350 degrees, and 15,000 psi
- The High Pressure/High Temperature EHBB is rated for use up to 500 degrees and 30,000 psi
