Reeled tubing

Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-003077

A continuous length of small-diameter pipe, typically 1 to 4.5 inches, stored on a large reel and injected into a wellbore. It is used for well intervention, such as logging, cementing, or stimulation, without the need for a full drilling rig. This method reduces rig-up time and operational costs compared to conventional jointed pipe operations.
