Multiple-opening circulation sub

Multiple-opening circulation sub

Circulation sub is a multiple-opening circulation sub used to protect the downstream BHA components during pumping of drilling fluids. It switches drilling fluid flow path from the ID of the string to the annulus.

Possible applications of the sub: pumping lost-circulation material for lost circulation; spotting acid; replacement of fluid during workover/completion operations without complicated and expensive POOH.
