Liner
Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-002174
A string of casing that does not extend back to the surface, but instead is suspended from the bottom of a previously set casing string. Liners are used to isolate lower formations, protect against collapse, or extend the wellbore deeper. They are typically cemented in place to provide zonal isolation and structural support.
