We’ve run traditional tubing anchor catchers for decades, why change now?

You will still get the safe, reliable setting procedure of a standard tubing anchor catcher, only now you have less restriction, better flow by, and more options on where to set the tool. With such a small area between the tool and casing, a standard tubing anchor catcher essentially acts as a choke, restricting gas flow up the annulus. With our patent protected Slimline® design, flow restriction is significantly decreased and, if placed below the perforations, eliminated. This allows for fluids to more easily fall past the tool, allowing the gas to break out easier.
