A long-term lab and field study by Chevron and Workstrings International published by the Society of Petroleum Engineers, tested 18 leading coatings on drill pipes for eight years. Drill pipes are the toughest environment anyone can ever imagine and Rust Grip® was the top performer. In that paper they highlight the cascading benefits that came from solving the corrosion problem. You solve the corrosion problem, that’s already millions of dollars in savings and then because you’re not having to swap out these drill pipes so often, you’re saving millions in logistics.

“Beyond the goal of eliminating corrosion and pitting-related damages, the introduction of externally coated completion tubulars has facilitated a paradigm shift in the way operators manage rental completion tubulars.”

“This coating system provides a trouble free solution and significant cost savings to the operator and pipe rental company through reduction in pipe repairs and damages; loss of capital assets; and rig time due to pipe issues, fluid issues and corrosion issues.”

“The savings realized in connection repairs alone is estimated to exceed $250,000 per well.”

Project Description

Rust Grip® is being used by Workstrings International® to protect and extend the life of completion tubulars (drill pipe) in the oil and gas industry. There is no tougher or more corrosive environment.

Coating Solution

Completion tubulars coated with Rust Grip® have been used on five (5) back to back open water intervention projects with zero downgrades as compared to one project with an uncoated completion tubular exhibiting serious pitting and corrosion.

Results

Rust Grip® provides a protective film of superior adhesion and flexibility, and is resistant to abrasion, impact, chemical solvents, and acid splash. Since 2015, Workstrings has coated over 3,500,000 feet with zero tube corrosion downgrades.
