Swivel Joint

The swivel joint is a standard tool string component that permits full rotation of the bottomhole assembly made up below the joint.

Description

The swivel joint's design includes integral sealed bearings, which ensure full integrity of flow through the joint. The inclusion of a swivel joint in a typical bottomhole assembly (BHA) gives the operator orientation flexibility. A coiled tubing swivel joint in a BHA enables the tool string to be broken and made-up below the joint without the need to disconnect from the coil.

The swivel joint is necessary where tool string orientation is required, such as in the running and pulling of gas-lift mandrels.

When ordering swivel joints, please specify size and thread connection.
