RapidAccess

Reduce risks, time, and costs with operational simplicity

The RapidAccess TAML 2 self-orienting multilateral junction provides selective access and multiple kickoff points for current and future sidetracks and multilateral wellbores. This highly reliable Level 2 system is based on a self-orienting and locking casing nipple concept. It has these components:

• indexing casing coupling (ICC)
• construction selective landing tool
• construction reentry deflection tool

The indexing ICCs are installed in the casing string when the string is run and are reusable throughout the life of the well. After they are installed, ICCs become integral casing components and may be run as a contingency for future reentry operations without compromising the integrity of the casing string. Orientation is determined by using standard logging tools or MWD in gravity tool face mode. The downhole tools are then adjusted at the surface.

The RapidAccess junction can be easily accommodated in any TAML 2 application with standard oilfield practices and tools.

With a systematic quantitative risk assessment to identify the best location, the RapidAccess junction can be used for new wells that have similar pressure regimes. Operational simplicity reduces risks, time, and costs.
