Thraxis®

Overview

TAQA’s Thraxis’ unique designs fit differing global applications from large-diameter, high-temperature geothermal wells to slim-hole shale applications paired with vibratory/agitation tools.

Thraxis Shock subs are built to fit your specific application, designed and engineered for maximum efficiency across applications ranging from straight hole conventional to ERD applications, and are compatible paired with multiple vibratory tools/agitation tools.

Challenge

Bit bounce, shock, vibration, and other erratic drilling conditions can cause significant damage to your Bottom Hole Assembly (BHA) and bit, resulting in compromised drilling performance. This can lead to prolonged drilling times and increased associated costs.

Application

TAQA’s Thraxis drilling shock tool features a configurable Belleville spring stack with a high-grade oil, sealed at high temperatures. It’s also designed with carbide-coated components, ensuring optimal performance for any fluid type, ranging from high content brine to oil-based mud. With the Thraxis® drilling shock tool, TAQA offers a reliable solution for achieving superior drilling performance.
