As operators across the Kurdistan Region of Northern Iraq aggressively scale up drilling and workover efficiencies, Diversified Drilling & Industrial Equipment (DDIE) continues to deliver cutting-edge wellsite solutions. Building on our strong regional base, DDIE has successfully deployed the industry-leading Volant CRTi® (Casing Running Tool Internal) to execute high-precision casing drilling, and reaming operations.

By integrating this advanced, fully mechanical technology into our specialized Tubular Running Services (TRS), DDIE is enabling operators to run strings smoothly, bypass critical downhole hazards.

Overcoming Downhole Friction Through Casing Drilling & Reaming

In complex, high-angle wellbores, frictional resistance frequently causes stuck-pipe incidents, increasing non-productive time (NPT). The Volant CRTi solves this by utilizing patented TAWG® (Torque Activated Wedge Grip) technology.

Mechanically activated solely by the rig's top drive control, the tool securely grips the interior wall of the casing using expanding slips and dies. This robust internal connection allows the driller to:

Fulfilling the Promise of Safer, Cleaner Rig Floors

By consolidating multiple traditional steps into a single tool, DDIE is systematically reducing the risk footprint for our partners. The mechanical CRTi replaces the traditional requirement for a power tong, elevator, and standalone fill-up tool.

Operated entirely from the driller's cabin, the tool minimizes manual pipe handling and drastically reduces the number of personnel required on the high-risk rig floor during critical tubular operations. Furthermore, its cushioned internal dies protect costly premium-thread casings from severe surface gouges and thread damage.

Supported by our extensive asset inventories, comprehensive technology parks, and specialized technical teams permanently based in Erbil, DDIE remains committed to providing the region's energy sector with the elite hardware and field-proven expertise required to secure your next well construction success.
