Benefits
DireCT pipe-on-pipe friction reducer is a proprietary lubricant blend that is especially effective in horizontal applications where it lubricates coiled tubing and casing, thereby allowing increased weight to the bit. When used in combination with AttraCT™ surfactant, DireCT minimizes friction resulting from metal-on-metal tubular contact. As a result, longer lateral sections are completed during coiled tubing operations.
