The JOLT Tool™ is a downhole friction reduction technology that creates an axial oscillation along the drill string to increase steering efficiency, practical reach, and rate of penetration. The JOLT Tool has a high-frequency pulse signature creates maximum drill-string excitation while also being the most MWD-friendly.
The JOLT FX adds optional downhole flow activation creating the industry’s first and only on-demand high-frequency friction reduction tool.
Key Features:
- Tools operates via a high-speed power section driving a valve actuating a shock tool
- Hertz range of 17-21
- Optimized to reduce downhole friction via axial oscillations generated by a pressure pulse
- Optimized for higher flow rates
- Designed with larger ODs for premium connections
- Dedicated 6.5” tool available for 7 7/8” hole
New JOLT FX:
- The JOLT FX is the only on-demand friction reduction tool with 1/2 power section configuration.
- The JOLT FX ships in the off-position and is activated downhole.
- To activate, briefly raise flow rate to pre-determined target on or off-bottom.
- Instantaneous Activation. No ball or dart needed.
- Two JOLT FX tools can be run in tandem with the same or different flow activation targets.
