    DSI Casing Cutter details. A Casing-cutter is a device used in petroleum industry to cut a complete section of a casing, a liner or all others tubular components in a well bore. This cutting tool is composed by several cutting blades (reinforced with Tungsten carbide) pivotally mounted on support body. During cutting operations, the cutting ...

  3. Casing hanger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casing_hanger

    Casing hangers must be designed to take the full weight of the casing, and provide a seal between the casing hanger and the spool. Casing Hangers may also be suspended within the wellhead by means of radial distortion of the wellhead bore e.g. the "Pos-Grip" method. This is installed to support the individual casing strings in the well.

    Casing Diameters of a Borehole Casing Diagram premium gas tight connections on a casing string. Casing is a large diameter pipe that is assembled and inserted into a recently drilled section of a borehole. Similar to the bones of a spine protecting the spinal cord, casing is set inside the drilled borehole to protect and support the wellstream.

    Pre-holed liner is often combined with openhole packers, such as swelling elastomers, mechanical packers or external casing packers, to provide zonal segregation and isolation. It is now quite common to see a combination of pre-holed liner, solid liner and swelling elastomer packers to provide an initial isolation of unwanted water or gas zones.
