Extended Offset Protector

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 

Extended offset protector (EOP) designs provide additional offset to protect the lines over downhole subassemblies (SV, CIM, ELM)
*EOP’s can be designed to mount on regular tubing, flow couplings or over a coupling.
