Booster Bypass Tool

The Booster Bypass Tool was developed to assist operators in achieving higher flow rates while drilling. By splitting the flow while drilling, the operator achieves more effective continuous hole cleaning and wellbore management, while maintaining allowable flow rates through sophisticated downhole tools. The tool features single ball activation/de-activation cycles, interchangeable port jetting nozzles directed uphole, a fluted main body with wear reduction coating, and a completely mechanical design that is easy to use and consistently reliable. The integrated float minimizes tool length while maintaining well control. A customized hydraulics program is utilized to size tool nozzles for optimal performance. The tool ensures flow remains in the optimum range, drilling parameters remain optimum at the bit, better steerability, better hole conditioning without washout, and optimum motor and RSS performance. The tool eliminates damage due to erosion and vibration during clean-up cycles, saving rig time.
