Coiled Tubing Advantages
Efficiency
Self-Contained unit, requires no rig
Saves time and money - do not have to kill well
Reduced potential damage to formation
Typically used on live wells so no kill fluids necessary
Act as tool transport medium for deviated & horizontal wells
Performance
Computer programs to optimize job design
Fast
Utilize internal pressure to generate large downhole forces
Tubing Management
Advanced data acquisition system to monitor key job
parameters - on tubing management

Proven Applications
For vertical, horizontal, and highly deviated
wells, both on land and offshore include:
Drilling Setting and Retrieving
Electric Wireline Logging Bridge Plugs
and Perforating Permanent Installations
Stimulation Running Packers
Fluid Displacement Coiled Tubing Used as
Sand Control Flowline
Coiled Tubing Conveyed Flow Control of Horizontal
Perforating and Deviated Completions

Characteristics of Tubing
7 04/10/17
Injector Basics
Hydraulically powered counter rotating
chains.
Linear beam to apply grip to tubing
Roller chain around linear beam to
transmit load to gripper blocks and
then to tubing
Gripper blocks mounted in hardened
steel counter rotating chain assembly
Hydraulic cylinders apply beam
pressure to tubing
Bi-directional, twin hydraulic motors
with gear reduction in upper assembly
Injector designation based on Gripper

11 04/10/17
V-Block Grippers
Multiple tubing sizes can
be run with the same
gripper blocks
Halliburton exclusive
patented, design
Grooved surfaces for
enhanced gripping
performance
Standard on all new
Halliburton injectors
(since 1992)
Reduces cost of
operations by not having
additional dripper blocks
for all size tubing.
