BC Protectors

BC Protector
Product description

Protectors are designed to protect all control lines and cables along the full length of the production string, reducing the risk of damage to cables, control lines, or flatpacks. PDT’s Protector portfolio includes clamping and cable protection solutions to protect cables from lateral, axial, and rotational loading in downhole applications. In addition to our standard cross-coupling range, PDT designs application-specific solutions for demanding situations.

 

Application 

The BC (Banded Cover) Protector is a cast-steel protective line cover designed for shallow wells with little or no deviation. The BC straddles the collar and is held to the tubing string with steel bands. The cast steel BC provides superior axial and lateral load protection compared to molded polymer and folded sheet steel covers. The universal BC Protector can be used over a variety of tubing connections and accommodates several standard line configurations.
