Subsurface and Surface Sleeves and Accessories

Subsurface and Surface Sleeves and Accessories

Subsurface Sleeves (Downhole Sleeves): These are components used at the depths of drilling operations with subsurface equipment, typically utilized for connecting or supporting pipes and other parts. Their primary functions include:

1. Connection: Subsurface sleeves connect drilling pipes and other subsurface equipment, facilitating the transmission of drilling mud and other fluids to the downhole bits.

2. Sealing: They ensure a leak-proof operation of drilling equipment, preventing the escape of drilling fluids and gases from the subsurface.

3. Stability and Support: Sleeves enhance the stability of subsurface equipment, ensuring components remain in the correct position and aiding in the smooth execution of drilling operations.

4. Protection: Subsurface sleeves protect pipes and other components from wear, which is crucial for long-term and safe drilling operations.

 

Surface Sleeves (Yerüstü Manşon)

Surface sleeves are components used in the surface equipment of drilling operations to connect and support pipes, fittings, and other parts. Their primary functions are as follows:

1. Connection and Integration: Surface sleeves connect drilling pipes and other surface equipment. This ensures the entire drilling system operates harmoniously.

2. Sealing and Safety: Surface sleeves provide sealing for surface equipment, preventing the leakage of drilling fluids or gases, thereby ensuring a safe working environment.

3. Power Transmission: Sleeves assist in transmitting power from surface equipment to subsurface equipment, facilitating the effective continuation of the drilling process.

4. Protection and Support: Surface sleeves help protect pipes and other components, extending the equipment's lifespan and enhancing the reliability of the drilling operations.

In summary:

Subsurface Sleeves: Facilitate connections of pipes and equipment at depth, improve sealing and stability, and aid in equipment protection.

Surface Sleeves: Facilitate connections of surface pipes and equipment, ensure sealing and safety, support power transmission, and assist in equipment protection.

Both types of sleeves are critical for the safe and efficient execution of drilling processes.
