Heavy Weight Drill Pipe

DSSI offers two types of heavy weight drill pipe.

Conventional HWDP provides a gradual transition from heavy drill collars to relatively light drill pipe. This gradual change in weight and rigidity reduces connection fatigue problems and increases the service life of the drill. HWDP simplifies directional control in high-angle and horizontal drilling situations since it bends more easily than drill collars.

Spiral-Wate™ HWDP reduces differential sticking problems, minimizes wear and improves circulation. Designed to handle maximum stress and save time, it reduces drilling costs, especially in tough environments. Spiral-Wate™ is a unique, patented design created by Grant Prideco.
