ELECTRO-HYDAULIC SWAGE

THE MOST COMMON REASON FOR WELL LOSS IS
STRUCTURAL FAILURE DUE TO DAMAGED CASING. DAMAGED
CASING INVOLVES COMPRESSION BREAKS, COLLAPSED
CASING, HOLES, ENLARGE PERFORATIONS AND
DETERIORATION.
WITH MANY YEARS OF PROVEN RESULTS, THE
ELECTRO-HYDRAULIC SWAGE REPAIRS DAMAGED CASING
AND RETURNS WELLS BACK TO PRODUCTIVE SERVICE.

REPAIR DAMAGE AND COLLAPSED CASING
The Hydraulic Swage is lowered to the damaged area. The jaws of the Hydraulic Swage expand with over 200 tons of pressure, forcing the casing back to its original shape. The jaws are then retracted and rotated to a second position to ensure that the entire section is open. After the damaged area is open, a steel corrugated liner is placed over this area. The liner is then swaged out, fusing the liner and casing together. The swaged corrugated liner creates a sound reinforcement with limited loss to the well's diameter.

SEAL OFF UNWANTED PERFORATIONS
The Hydraulic Swage is used to expand fabricated liners over unwanted perforated areas. The most common purposes for this is to stop aeration from falling water, to seal off sand producing areas and contaminated water zones.

MORE YEARS OF USEFUL LIFE
With the Hydraulic Swage, water wells that would normally be abandoned due to structural failure are rejuvenated to provide many more years of functional service.

DON'T ABANDON OLD WELLS
Casing breaks, separations, holes, unwanted perforations and water contamination are no longer causes to necessitate drilling a new well. With the right tool in the right place most wells can be repaired.
