Dopeless® technology debuts in Alaska
An important European national oil and gas company successfully drilled the first complete Dopeless® technology well in Alaska in March 2014.

Due to the extreme environment where the running took place, the customer chose Dopeless® technology since it arrives rig ready, making operations more efficient while minimizing environmental impact.

The Dopeless® solution makes compounds used for running and storage obsolete, enhancing the performance of the premium connection.
