Mitigate drilling hazards with the industry’s most versatile
drilling valve
 
 A COMPLETE redesign of the ball-activated Centurion Circulating Valve (CCV): greatly improved reliability and increased applicability
 A drilling specialist’s ideal tool for mitigating drilling hazards
It is a drilling valve for use in operations that may encounter lost circulation, wellbore instability or hole-cleaning challenges.
-
5-in., 7-in., 8 ¼-in. and limited 9 ½-in. OD sizes to cover every hole size
-
Short one-piece body with no internal threads (no bucking machine needed)
-
Features an oil-filled chamber with a floating piston that isolates the tool-activation mechanism from drilling fluids and debris

 A drilling valve that is activated via steel ball, offering a variety of options to the operator:
Reduced pressure drop allows greatly increased pump rates to aid cuttings-beds removal with higher fluid-flow velocities
Coarse lost-circulation or wellbore-strengthening materials can bypass sensitive
downholedrilling tools and be easily placed in the loss zone
Kill-weight fluid can be pumped in underbalanced or managed-pressure drilling applications before initiating a trip
Excellent for hole cleaning during underreaming, hole-opening, or coring operations
The tool can condition fluid at high flow rates in any drilling or displacement string
Helps fill or drain the drillstringduring trips to control surge and swab pressures and to enhance tripping operations by minimizing fluid discharge
Often referred to as a “Drilling By
-
Pass Sub Valve” or “Circulating Valve”
