A company demonstrated a remote-controlled robot for retrieving melted fuel debris at Japan's destroyed Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant. The plan involves deploying an extendable pipe robot into ...
The idea of using expandable pipe in oil wells, once just a promising notion, is starting to become standard operating procedure with the rapid evolution of this technology developed in Houston. In ...
Several Russian oil field case histories have demonstrated that expandable-profile tubulars or pipes have proven to be an effective way to control formation caving and sloughing problems in ...
TOKYO (AP) — The operator of Japan's destroyed Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant demonstrated Tuesday how a remote-controlled robot would retrieve tiny bits of melted fuel debris from one of three ...

In a play on words, Bill Dean, business development manager for Houston-based Enventure Global Technology LLC said expanding solid tubulars was a "pipe dream" of which many in the industry were ...
To produce slotted pipe, a pattern of very fine cuts is made right though the wall by a high pressure sand/water jet. When the expansion force is applied this pipe opens up to a strong but highly ...
Threaded oil-well pipe or casing after expansion shows Von Mises stresses at maximum deformation. Red indicates highest stresses, not failure. Enventure engineers use nonlinear FEA from Ansys Inc. to ...
