SECTION MILL

TECHNICAL SUMMARY

Section mills are primarily used to mill sections in the casing for: sidetracking, gravel packing, and/or perforation zones. Orchid Energy section mill is available in a variety of casing sizes, ranging from 4 ½“ to 13 ⅜”. The blades are dressed so that all blades simultaneously mill the casing, with the milling rates usually limited by the ability of the fluids to remove the cuttings from the hole.
