The biggest benefit for the Operator is that we help mitigate the risk of a failure of the premium threads, causing leaks, losses, and down-time. They’re fragile and can be damaged easily through any step of the process from the mill to the well site, and the most minute damage can cause a big problem. Our guys work with the rig crew, etc. ensuring that proper procedures are followed from start to finish.
Since Cole is an independent third party, there is no conflict of interest for the Operator if there is a problem. We can objectively look to the root cause without a vested interest in any specific manufacturer, threading mill, or otherwise. Our reporting is impartial, and focused on delivering results to the customer. We keep a thorough commentary with technical information for every casing/tubing run and inspection.
Cole service reps provide 100% rig time. They monitor each connection made and it’s corresponding torque graph, noting any potential issues in order to identify/attempt to correct them as they happen. This also helps provide a more complete report to the customer. Cole techs average over 8 years experience working with connections and have well-rounded backgrounds that provide knowledge and understanding of all types of tubular applications.
Cole Enterprises prides itself on providing exceptional service at rates that make sense to the customer. No matter where your well site or tubular goods are located, you’ll receive qualified, technical expertise that won’t destroy your bottom line. Give us a call or email us with your drilling program needs and we can walk you through the costs and savings of using thread technician services.
Since our beginning, Cole Enterprises has remained focused on premium and API thread inspection, running oversight, and handling tool rentals. Our techs stay up-to-date on all OCTG thread manufacturers’ connections and are the most knowledgeable and experienced in the field. Contact us with any technical or field questions you may have, or for help with any special solutions needed for your well.
Cole Enterprises was formed by W. Allen Cole in 1991 in Houston, TX. He had over 30 years experience in the oilfield, specifically with premium connections. His vast experience and overall expertise has been leveraged in our field service training and relationships with customers to this day. Allen built Cole Enterprises with a strong foundation and a solid reputation as a leader in the technical and fundamental aspects of production casing and tubing. It’s a legacy that we work to maintain with each job we do.
